Vegetable Garden, Greenhouse vegetable garden
other wishes / special features / daily routine, also reasons why something should or should not be included
- laundry chute
- equally sized children’s rooms
House Design
Who designed it:
- do-it-yourself
What do you particularly like? Why?
Large living area since we spend most of our time there
What do you dislike? Why?
Orientation of the pantry, because it is probably too hot being on the south side
Price estimate according to architect/planner:
Personal price limit for the house, including fittings: 450,000 €
Preferred heating system: gas
If you have to give up something, on which details / fittings
- you can do without: we already gave up a bay window we actually wanted; otherwise, we could do without the staircase design and the niches in the hallway and kitchen for the wardrobes
- you cannot do without: equally sized children’s rooms, shower on the ground floor
Why did the design turn out as it is now?
A mix of many examples from various magazines...
What do you think makes it particularly good or bad?
Good is that both children’s rooms face south. Bad is the narrow hallway and possibly the pantry’s orientation
What is the most important / fundamental question about the floor plan, summarized in 130 characters?
Can the floor plan be realized as drawn, meaning can you get through all areas in practical use? Are there any elements that won’t work as shown?

If I remember correctly, it was unclear how close the garage is allowed to be to the street. According to the development plan, the garage must be set back 3 meters (10 feet) from the street.
