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?

Hausbauer11 Feb 2018 15:04Constructive feedback: Your house is probably much closer to my ideal vision than what I would ever build myself. So this is really just “nitpicking” at a very high level. However, here are a few suggestions for possible improvements:
- I simply don’t understand the purpose of the open void space. Noise and odors travel both ways, and it wastes valuable living space.
- You have this fantastic sunroom concept in the living room created by all the glass. If there were also glass above the overhang on the lower right side, it would look even nicer.
- The upper left corner of the living room would be perfect for a cozy fireplace area. Unfortunately, you currently have the couch and likely the TV placed there.
- I really like the layout of the bedroom, walk-in closet, and bathroom. But why isn’t there a second bathroom for the children, so you don’t have to share your bathroom?
- Of course, the rooftop terrace is missing… on the other hand, due to the terrain, your terrace already almost feels like one.
In any case, I wish you lots of enjoyment with the house. I would love to see it in person when it’s ready.
