House Design
Who Designed it: Architect from a construction company
What Do You Like Most? Why? Side driveway to garage, direct access from garage to house, separate apartment concept, open ground floor design, upper floor is perfect in our opinion, gallery
What Do You Like Least? Why? Living/dining area is somewhat too large (wife worries it may be hard to arrange cozily), bedroom window position in the separate apartment is tricky, (north entrance → long access route for guests)
Preferred Heating System: Air-to-water heat pump + photovoltaic system + battery storage
If You Have to Cut Back, On Which Details / Extensions
- Can be cut: Office on upper floor, a few square meters in living/dining area
- Cannot be cut: Remaining room program
Why Has the Design Turned Out As It Is Now?
The room program was provided by us. Furthermore, many requirements and the plot itself influenced the design.
Why Was the Drawing Created in Sweet Home 3D?
The architect’s design is drawn to scale but not dimensioned, so I transferred it to SH3D.
What Is the Most Important / Fundamental Question About the Floor Plan, Summarized in 130 Characters?
What do you think of the floor plan? Any ideas on how to make the large living/dining area feel cozier?

The architect’s draft is drawn to scale but not dimensioned, That would be unusual. The (presumably estimated) measurements in your drawings mostly deviate from the standard dimensions, which is also not typical for architects.
A consistent scale would make it easier for the viewer to understand the plans. I think I would find the original drawings easier to navigate.
What I don’t like at all is the setback in the undefined space between the living and dining areas, which results in the L-shape of the open space.
In the suite consisting of the bedroom, dressing room, and bathroom, I’m bothered by the sequence of room sizes descending in that particular direction.
The front door for the secondary apartment is relatively elaborate and will require a sign indicating “main entrance around the back.”

Should the EL apartment be rented out? It seems a bit too dark for me...
Also, I would be worried that the children, if they need to go to the bathroom at night or pass each other, might fall down the stairs.
We have the same setup here in our rental building – a straight staircase with the bathroom door immediately to the right at the top, like yours. I think such a layout (door next to stairs) is poorly designed...
A 14 sqm (150 sq ft) walk-in closet? That’s quite... generous.

We have exactly the same situation here in the rental building There are special gates designed for that purpose which can be fitted there. But I agree with you that in a generously designed house, no petty details fit. That’s why the notched quadrant in the open space bothers me as well.

Oh, at least sibling murders rarely involve stairs. When you’re young, you’re still so far from inheriting.
