Hello everyone,
I already posted a floor plan in the building costs forum.
There was a comment that the children's rooms are too small.
Yesterday, I visited a show home for a quote and took a look at the rooms there.
I have to admit, I was a bit shocked by the size of the children's rooms, which were about 11 sqm (118 sq ft). So, hardly smaller than what we have planned. It’s hard to imagine the room size just from the paper.
Do you have any ideas on how to enlarge the three children's rooms on the upper floor without completely changing the entire floor plan?
Or if you have any other criticism or suggestions for improvement, feel free to share.
Best regards,
Steffen

Accordingly, the staircase could be adjusted and this corner at the entrance eliminated.


With your shower/stair proposal, it definitely wouldn’t be possible to carry a long ladder upstairs anymore.
Best regards in brief

I wouldn't have expected anyone to come up with concrete suggestions again. The suggestions were already concrete over many pages; you just have to be able and willing to read. Not all participants can immediately produce a drawn version of what they mean.

As it is now, my wife wouldn’t agree because the bathroom would be too small. (She wants to put a washing machine and dryer in there, for whatever reason...) A combined bathroom and laundry room within a bedroom wing, like a master suite. No further questions, Your Honor.

The ground floor is to remain as it is, that is certain. That’s a poor starting point—or to put it differently, a heavy burden—when simultaneously asking for improvement suggestions. The ground floor also sets the framework for the upper floor, from which you can only deviate by cantilevers or recesses. In this sense, it “bears responsibility” for the design possibilities of everything else.

Take a look at the building envelope and tell me what could have been done better. You’re almost forced to build with angles. It would also have been possible to take advantage of the flat roof, which offers more freedom for non-parallel eaves lines.

No idea – the headroom shouldn’t change. We’re only extending the spout and cutting a bit off the curve at the bottom. Are you sure?

However, if I swap the bedroom and bathroom, it might work.It’s not that simple. Then you would have the drains in the living room, and the view from the bed onto the garden would be gone.11ant schrieb:

..just my luck! I give up.That’s how it goes when you build together as a couple.
My only condition was to have a hobby room, and then my wife came up with her ideas...
3 kids’ rooms, a guest room, a bathroom where the dryer fits, and windows everywhere if possible.
The size of the kids’ rooms wasn’t my idea. I could have lived with just 5 rooms.
If needed, a guest can stay in one of the kids’ rooms.
The kids will just have to be okay with sharing a room for a while.
