ᐅ Single-family house with a pitched roof, without a basement – feedback welcome

If the secondary floor space ratio for courtyards and such isn’t sufficient, gravel or crushed stone is used.

In the last example, the house is 105m² (1130 sq ft). The garage plus driveway is roughly 80m² (860 sq ft). If the rule about counting half of that still applies, that would be 40m² (430 sq ft). Together that would be 145m² (1560 sq ft) of built-up area. So far, no one has been able to justify this convincingly. It would be helpful if the original poster just asked the building authority / planning office.

I’m more worried about something like this:

House 105
Garage 38
Paths 42 / 2 = 21
That would be 164m² (1765 sq ft) which is 8.25m² (89 sq ft) too much.

With some rearranging, I can manage:
House 102.5
Garage 37.2
Paths 37.25

According to the calculation above, that would be 158.3m² (1705 sq ft), just 2.6m² (28 sq ft) too much. I could squeeze that out somewhere if absolutely necessary. But only if this calculation method actually applies.

Ah, but we still don’t have a terrace included. No luck there. More information from the building authority / planning office is needed first.

In the green forum it says:
Floor area ratio 2 = floor area ratio-1 + 50% (<0.8)
= 0.35 + (0.35*0.5) = 0.525

Accordingly, 155.75 for house + terrace.
77.8 remaining for paths. That would of course be comfortable.

Of course, that’s relaxed. But we must have all been smoking something.

You correctly noticed that I asked for your opinion here because my husband and I cannot agree.
It is very difficult to realize our ideas on this plot of land with the given restrictions.
He definitely wants the double garage and the landing staircase.
I really need a 3m (10 ft) closet in the hallway. Our three boys attend the forest kindergarten, each has two sets of backpacks and two sets of mud clothes. In addition, there are various shoes and jackets.
I don’t have a bag obsession. I own six bags (including a diaper bag). A 60cm (2 ft) closet per person does not indicate a clothing addiction...
We would like to have the kitchen facing west because the outdoor kitchen will be in the western garden, so I don’t have to walk through the entire living area to get there.
There is also the restriction of 160sqm (1,722 sq ft) for living space or 175sqm (1,883 sq ft) including a cellar replacement room.
The idea of an integrated garage is actually quite good. That way, we have living and sleeping areas on two floors (160sqm/1,722 sq ft), and in the attic we have the technical room, washing machine, dryer, and an additional room. The entire attic floor then does not count as living space. We would have about 220sqm (2,368 sq ft).

On the other hand, we have to distribute the five bedrooms, heating system, and utility room over three floors and stay within 175sqm (1,883 sq ft).

The image shows the ground floor as designed by the architect.
The first floor would contain the master bedroom area and the utility room including the heating system.
The attic has two additional children's rooms and a children's bathroom.

Living and dining areas would be too small for me.
Remove the guest room, swap the kitchen and the living room.
