Hello dear forum members,
I have purchased an apartment from a developer. The basic floor plan is already fixed, meaning the exterior layout is set. Only after some time did I realize that the proposed floor plan is difficult to furnish. It is an open-plan space with kitchen, living, and dining areas measuring about 600 x 600 cm (236 x 236 inches). I am attaching a plan. This is the sales plan. I will probably only receive a fully dimensioned plan by the end of August.
The apartment will be completed in the third quarter of 2018, so there is still time to make some adjustments. But how? I am tearing my hair out because I have been stuck focusing on the problems and unfortunately have no new ideas. I hope you can give me a helpful nudge in a different direction.
To furnish are:
- Kitchen for 1 to 2 people
- One dining table 150 x 80 cm (59 x 31 inches) with 4 chairs
- One two-seater sofa (160 cm long (63 inches))
- One lowboard (120 cm long (47 inches))
- One highboard (100 cm long (39 inches))
- One display cabinet (90 cm long (35 inches), 110 cm high (43 inches))
- One armchair for a reading corner
All furniture except the sofa is flexible and can, if necessary, be moved to the adjacent room. The kitchen and dining table are also essential.
Also fixed are the service shaft (the diagonal black-and-white square) and, in the worst case, the WC, though I still need to confirm that.
I hope someone can give me a fresh perspective. I already asked a question in the kitchen planning forum next door, but I think it was too early for me. I couldn’t really engage much. Now it’s different, and I’m hoping for the collective intelligence here.

The PDF works fine, I don’t know what your problem is
?Thank you very much for the plan. It is even protected to the point that it can’t be printed... [emoji6]
We had also considered a kitchen on the left side of the plan before... but the counterargument was that it might be difficult to arrange the water connection there.
@Bertram100 ... so far, you always calculated a very high storage requirement for the kitchen... how is that standing now? Here it suddenly reads as if that need no longer exists.

Bertram1009 Aug 2017 10:02Last night, I also thought of the following: the neighboring apartment to mine is rotated by 90°. This means that, in theory, the neighbors could look directly into the balcony window on the top side of the plan. I’m attaching a cropped photo of the overall floor plan so you can see this. The neighbor is just to the left of my apartment.
That’s why I would prefer to place the kitchen on the right side of the plan, so the neighbor would be looking at me cooking instead of me sitting on the sofa. I find that rather uncomfortable (although I must admit I have never hung curtains in any of my previous apartments. I actually prefer windows without any coverings. When it was possible for others to look into the living room, the neighbors were usually annoyed and ended up hanging curtains. One set of curtains is enough for privacy).
