Hello,
we would like to share our floor plan with you and kindly ask for an honest opinion or ideas on how it could be improved.
Basic information:
approx. 170–180 sqm (1830–1937 sq ft) with a gable roof.
Ground floor: 2.80 m (9 ft 2 in) ceiling height.
Upper floor: 1.60–1.80 m (5 ft 3 in–5 ft 11 in) knee wall height.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t edit the plan directly, so I modified it using Paint. I hope you understand what I mean.
As you can see, we want to have a shower in the guest restroom, mainly for our dog, because we don’t want to bathe him upstairs after being outside in fields or woods. The kitchen should have a corner window, with no door or window that can be opened. One of the garden doors in the living/dining area (the upper one) will be removed, and the lower one moved further up. We don’t have a TV; everything runs through a projector, so we don’t need power outlets on the wall facing the office.
The staircase will look like this (to make it easier to understand):

That’s it for the ground floor for now. Now to the upper floor.
The bathroom fixtures will be rearranged since we don’t like the current layout suggested by our advisor, but that’s not a big issue. The walk-in closet will be separated from the bedroom by a sliding element.
The office room will be open; I have a picture showing how we want it to look.

Now I kindly ask for your honest feedback and would appreciate any ideas you might have.
Best regards

This thread will unfortunately become useless at some point. Even on page 1, the originally included images are no longer visible because they were not uploaded directly in the post but stored on external servers. Why don’t you use the "upload file" feature?For this reason, I uploaded the other images to my private server to prevent them from disappearing. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find such a feature in the forum.
I also find it very unfortunate that the critique can no longer compare the old and new floor plans. The educational value is practically zero.
However, I really like the design and the house overall! Except for one thing, which is very striking to me: the windows at the top on one gable side are staggered and not arranged symmetrically – this stands out very negatively and could have easily been planned better.
