What do you particularly like?
The existing layout, storage space under the stairs, three possible children’s rooms, bay window in the living room, exposed steel beams in the kitchen and living room, textured clinker brick facade, overall style of the house
What do you not like?
So far, there is no natural light in the stairwell, which is why there is a desire for a partially open roof structure
Preferred heating system:
Geothermal
Why is the design as it is now?
The architect has fully followed our specifications and wishes
What is the most important/fundamental question about the floor plan?
Would a partially open roof structure be possible? Do you have any experience with this? Do you have alternatives to Wittmunder torfbruch clinker? If yes, where did you get yours?

Your neighbors were quite restrained in their architectural creativity, but at least they avoided any aesthetic disasters.The typical townhouse, really. Everyone has their own taste; therefore, we also want a nice hedge so we can have a bit of greenery to look at.

The classic city villa, after all. Yes, but at least it’s "neat" – not a Bauhaus Tuscany style with pine-green, floor-to-ceiling corner windows with muntins. In that sense, the view is at least bearable, even if not exciting.

spochtsfreund3 Feb 2019 17:58Hello everyone, first of all, thank you for the hedge tips. Now, I’m moving on to the next issue. We would like to fully plaster our bay window or have flush-mounted window sills. Do you have any ideas or solutions for us? Many thanks to you all.

We would like to completely plaster our bay window recess or have flush window sills. So, basically “no” window sills, meaning the inner jambs at the bottom are designed the same as on the sides and top, all finished with wall plaster, and then cushions would be placed on the bay window seat—is that correct?
Are the interior doors also intended to be basically “frame-less” in this sense?

Are the interior doors also intended to be practically "frame-less" in this way?That’s exactly how the seating window was planned. The paint will be topped with parquet lacquer, which makes it more durable. It should look like in the picture. So I would appreciate any ideas.
We would actually like the interior doors without any fittings. But we haven’t selected them yet.
