Hello everyone,
We have a plot where we are allowed to build a semi-detached house. The exterior dimensions can be a maximum of 7 m x 10 m (23 ft x 33 ft), with 2 full floors.
We have visited several carpentry companies (we want to build with solid wood) to get quotes. Each one designed a slightly different plan, but in all of them the children's rooms are quite small (between 11 and 12 square meters (118 to 129 square feet)).
Our requirements were:
- Ground floor with living/dining area, kitchen (preferably also separated), bathroom with shower, pantry
- Upper floor with one bedroom, 2 children's rooms, and a bathroom with shower + bathtub.
A basement is also planned, as the floor plan is already quite small. It will house a hobby room and a boiler room.
My question now:
Is it not possible to get larger children’s rooms with these exterior dimensions? Or has anyone built something similar with a completely different floor plan?
If more space really isn’t possible, is 11 square meters (118 square feet) enough for one child?

.. I wouldn’t cut costs on a partition wall and an extra door. I didn’t really see the wall and the door as potential savings either. The issue here is more about square meters. The question, exaggerated, is whether it’s better to build 2 times 10 m² (2 times 108 sq ft) or 1 time 20 m² (215 sq ft) for both, when simply no more space is available.

We have another appointment with the architect next Thursday. I will definitely share the results here afterwards! Is there any update from the architect yet?
Hello,
Today we visited the architect.
I have attached his proposals.
On the ground floor, the wall between the kitchen and pantry should be removed to allow a nice view of the garden from the kitchen.
Additionally, the wall between the kitchen and hallway should be opened up.
What do you think of the floor plan?

In my opinion, the utility room doesn’t need its own exterior door here. The passage between the utility room and the kitchen could be replaced with a pass-through window, allowing for a U-shaped kitchen layout. Is the fireplace necessary? I like the room divider next to it even less.
