Development Plan / Restrictions
Plot size: 420m² (4520 sq ft)
Orientation: North
Building envelope, setback line, and boundary: 3m (10 ft) distance from the street, 14.5m (48 ft) wide and 29m (95 ft) deep
Client Requirements
Gable roof with 20° pitch
2 floors
Number of people: 2 + (2 children planned)
Office: Home office
Guests per year: 6
Living area: 150 sqm (1615 sq ft)
Enclosed architecture
Modern construction style
Fireplace
Garage
House Design
Designer: Planner from a construction company
Points we are not satisfied with yet:
- Guest toilet is too large (no shower needed in it)
- Utility room should also be used for storage; heating system: gas, solar, or photovoltaic – is 10m² (108 sq ft) sufficient?
- We would like a sliding door in the kitchen, but
- We don’t know where to place the fireplace
- We would like a partition wall in the upstairs bathroom to separate the shower and toilet… but something still feels off
- We are considering installing a glass door in the kitchen to bring more light into the hallway
We would appreciate your opinions or ideas.
Thank you very much in advance.

Sebastian7918 Sep 2015 11:45Sure, you have a bit more space.
Is there a specific reason why the home office needs to be located on the ground floor? What do you think about the idea of minimizing the utility room on the ground floor, turning it more into a technical room, and placing the actual utility area upstairs near the bathroom? This way, you could save some space.
Honestly, with a 150m2 (1,615 sq ft) floor plan, I think the living room can be a bit more generous. And I’m not talking about a 50m2 (538 sq ft) or larger living room, but something around 35 to 42m2 (377 to 452 sq ft) seems reasonable for a living room.

Why is the living room facing north at all?????Because the garden is located to the north, otherwise I would have to walk through the entire house to get there... (yes, I know north orientation is not ideal...) I also don’t want it facing west because then I would be looking at the neighbor’s garage...
