Hello everyone!
We have purchased a triangular plot of land. As if that weren’t complicated enough, there is also a large oak tree that must be considered during the planning. In our initial considerations, it quickly became clear that the floor plan will have an L-shape.
Does anyone here have experience with this type of plot and a correspondingly shaped floor plan? What additional information is needed to get meaningful advice?
Best regards

SorryWhat exactly don’t you like? Everything, perhaps?
And what would you do differently or have done?
We’re still in the design phase...
For example, I’m not completely happy with the windows or their arrangement yet. The basic shape is dictated by the plot. There’s not much room for changes there.

How do you like it?Good!
The offset in the wall allows for 90° angles while making optimal use of the setback areas. Well executed! The large south-facing window in the living-dining area is in the right place.
The entrance bay/cube makes the narrow southwest tip of the building plot usable.
The problem is that the living area will hardly exceed 110 square meters (including basement, excluding garage).
Since this topic has come up occasionally in the forum: Would a recessed setback floor be possible to add, for example, another bedroom on the roof? Ask your architect about it. If you can’t build wide, then build up! Greetings from New York.

We’re still in the design phase...But basically, this style is what you want, right? It’s a matter of personal taste. I like it too, but not with three floors; it always looks like a multi-family house.
In my opinion, the entrance with the stairs doesn’t add anything to the house. And I can’t shake the feeling that this entrance is due to the basement apartment. I would have left out the basement apartment if my guess is correct because I think the house loses something by showing these three visible stories. If it’s not going to be a separate apartment, you might want to reconsider if that window needs to be so noticeable.
Of course, everything also depends largely on the floor plan.

It’s quite accurate
The appearance is a matter of taste.
To me, the entrance and the garage look like simply attached building blocks.
Access to the main entrance is only possible via stairs; my parents and my in-laws have the same, but I find it impractical.
I also don’t like the basement window.
