House Design
Planning by:
- Do-it-yourself
What do you especially like? Why?
Open living and dining area
Bedroom facing south, bathroom facing east
Price estimate from architect/planner: Shell construction so far €330,000 (excluding garage), CLT construction method
Personal price limit for house including equipment: €420,000
Preferred heating system: undecided so far

If you have to omit, which details/extras
- can you omit: smart home, 3 bathrooms, basement, sauna, balconies, dormers, etc.
- cannot omit: view to the south / southeast

Why is the design as it is now?
After countless drafts, we have now really fallen in love with this rough concept.
A mix of many examples from various magazines...
What makes it particularly good or bad in your opinion?
The plot offers a great view to the south.
So far the unknown factor is the neighbors’ development. We want to plan so that it does not really matter how they build without restricting us much.

What is the most important/basic question about the floor plan summarized in 130 characters?
Of course, we would like some basic suggestions about the floor plan.
Too small, too large, senselessly planned...

We have tried to create simple structures. We don't need any special frills.
The main living area will be the primary room.

Do you think the children’s room sizes are sufficient? How is the lighting there? The windows were just roughly drawn in. Should / must skylights still be added there?
Before we add all the furniture, we would like to know in advance if the basic planning could work.
We have already placed the little house (still with rotated ridge) on the plot.

We are already looking forward to an engaging discussion and are open to every suggestion.

Best regards,
Matthias

PS: Just noticed I forgot the window in the dressing room; of course, it will be added later.

Well, if you like that, it can be a good idea, yes. However, it does reduce the spaciousness of the room a bit. Everyone has to decide for themselves what they want and what they don’t. Maybe the distance works perfectly for you, and then everything is fine.

Right now, when I measure, the distance from the end of the sofa to the front of the TV is 1.4m (4 feet 7 inches).
Our TV isn’t very big, and we don’t really need a larger one, so we can sit that “close” to it…

I’ve now added the staircase to the plan for better understanding

Interior top view: staircase at front, rooms to right/top, person in blue room.

I’m already working on installing the steps...
It’s just a 3D program, not a floor plan software

But what for? I was already able to read 2D paper plans back then. You would have needed about twenty floppy disks just to install a 3D drawing program on your 286 computer (and then the hard drive would be full, so you’d have to uninstall it again to do your tax return). Whether it’s a blessing that nowadays no one sketches anymore—I’m not so sure...

At the very beginning, I sketched hundreds of pages until someone told me to create it in 3D so I could get a better sense of it.

Even a cynic who is a bit of a fool usually only makes that joke on April 1st.
