Hello experts,
we have finally found a plot of land, and the planning is in its final stages.
What do you think of our floor plan? Any suggestions for improvement?
1. The plot is on a slope, which is why there is a partial basement. We actually never wanted a basement, but it makes sense here because the homeowner really wants a double garage.
2. The plot faces north at the back. The plot is 17m (56 feet) wide (building area 11m (36 feet)) and 42m (138 feet) long (building area at the front 20m (66 feet)). The road is completely on the south side, so a full south-facing orientation is not possible. The building area does not allow it. However, we don't see this as a problem and hope that the many windows will provide enough natural light inside the house.

What do you think?
I don’t have your floor plan readily available anymore... is it still possible to change the window, or would that affect the exterior appearance? I feel that the shower wall height takes up a lot of space. When you enter, you don’t really see the window; your line of sight is more directed towards that wall. But maybe that’s just nitpicking?! ops:
Unfortunately, the window cannot be changed anymore, and the door is also difficult to move because it is located directly opposite the kitchen door, and there is still a cabinet that fits on the adjacent wall.
At first, we planned to make the shower enclosure completely out of glass, but it is quite demanding to clean, and for me, just a glass door would be enough, while I would prefer a built wall. I understand the idea of having the wall. Do you think it would be possible to build the wall like in this option? Or would the entrance area then be too narrow?
Half wall, half glass looks good visually, but it is neither budget-friendly nor practical for cleaning. In that case, I might as well go for a fully glass shower enclosure, right?!
