I’m starting a new thread since there seemed to be issues with the links, and as a result, no feedback on the floor plans.
We have now received the first draft from our architect. The house measures 10.24m x 10.24m (33.6 ft x 33.6 ft). We told the architect that we want the style to lean toward Mediterranean / urban villa, as we like that architectural style from our trips to Italy and Turkey. We prefer something a bit classic rather than too modern. We also wanted a steeper roof pitch to allow for an attic conversion later on.
I would really appreciate your opinions, and please feel free to be critical.
Best regards,
davegoldmann

Hi,
this looks like a solid, standard floor plan. I think it’s quite acceptable. Unfortunately, this sketchy drawing doesn’t allow for a precise assessment. It’s enough to get an impression, but nothing more.
To properly evaluate it, you really need to see the details: How far do the doors open and what size are they? What are the clear widths of the walkways? How are the sanitary fixtures arranged and what distances do they have? What wall thicknesses are available as space for furniture? What are the dimensions of the staircase? Does the chimney even allow space for a fireplace, and so on.
Maybe you should ask for a proper floor plan after all?

thank you very much for your feedback. Yes, I will ask again for a more detailed floor plan with measurements.
Are there any other opinions on our floor plans and elevations?

Have the slope of the terrain on the east side clearly illustrated and explained to you. You’ll almost need railings on the terrace to prevent anyone from falling down. It must be quite a steep drop, or is your house located on a hillside?
There is a sauna in the bathroom, but a bathtub or shower is not really visible. On the ground floor, you naturally lose some usable floor area because of the two staircases. For my taste, though, it’s still spacious enough.
