What is the most important fundamental question about the floor plan summarized in 130 characters?
The floor plan is basically fixed, but for noise (street) and privacy reasons, we want to mirror the whole house so the garage, front door, bay window, house, and terrace are positioned from west to east.
Unfortunately, this has sparked many discussions because the plot was gifted to us by family whose house behind is slightly elevated (about 3m (10 ft), on the north side). They fear their house will no longer be visible from the south if we move the garage to within 2–3m (6.5–10 ft) of the western boundary. However, if we move it back 6–7m (20–23 ft) to where the current house corner is, there is about 80m² (860 sq ft) of "wasted space" between the boundary, street, driveway, and garage. Do you have any ideas on how to make use of this space or avoid it altogether without compromising the rest of the design?
The images still show the old version, as we will only redesign once we find a solution...
Thank you very much!

Excavation has already been done as a test. I thought this was meant as an illustration of the buried discussion findings regarding the orientation of the rooms

I don’t have the original plans yet, I believe Yvonne was thinking more of a quick simulation based on the existing plans, if necessary with mirrored text, simply projected onto the site plan.
