House Design
Designed by:
- Architect
- What do you particularly like? Why? – Separate zones between private areas and guest-accessible areas.
- What do you dislike? Why? – The garage needs to be moved forward because a second terrace might be built on the east side.
Price estimate according to architect/planner: 300,000
Preferred heating system: heat pump with deep drilling and preferably a ventilation system,

If you have to give up something, which details/extensions?
Open to everything

Why is the design as it is now? For example,
The architect implemented our wishes.

Looking forward to your honest feedback.

Hello,

I haven’t really looked at the floor plan yet, but I’m already confused. Either I’m having a mental block, or something isn’t right with the directions!?

If the top of the plan is south, then the right side can’t be east.

Ahem, there was a small slip of the pen in the designation...........it definitely needs to be changed...

I got stuck there as well.

Are more children planned, or are Child 1 and 2 placeholders for hobbies, guests, or work?

Hello, I can’t explain it right now either ;(. The garden is indeed facing south, the entrance is on the north side.
The children’s rooms are currently just placeholders, as there are no children yet.

EDIT: Unfortunately, I cannot edit the original post, but I would like to prevent further misunderstandings.

So, how exactly should it be corrected? On the plan, is south at the top, west on the right, north at the bottom, and east on the left?

In which direction will the shed roofs be oriented? Is it planned to include skylights or roof windows here?
