For V1 kitchen on the left, you have to go around the utility room block from the entrance.
You could swap the kitchen and utility room. Then separate the utility room at a right angle from the slanted wall. You could put the kitchen in the area where the dining area is now... could, would, chain.
but at the price that there is no dining room at all that deserves this name, only a hallway-like thing that doesn't work, a passageway. For me, dining room is a deal breaker.
Since you already mention dining room and not dining area: given that you have the path to the living room on the right of the plan, I wouldn't have such worries at 3.10...
So why is the staircase located there? Why not further forward on the right or at least on the right wall?
The planner’s idea was probably that with the staircase location you also reach the upper floor.
I wonder why you don’t discuss this together. She should explain to you the advantages and ideas behind a design to make the design more tangible?!
very fitting, the floor area ratio II may even have been exceeded. Much too much area is lost on the right.
Well, I assume that if an architectural design is planned (and posted here), then a) the numbers regarding the permitted limits are correct and b) the client’s wishes are implemented.
I don’t know your requirement profile now... did you post a room program here? Honestly, I read from the design that a straight staircase is desired, a slanted wall to the south (although I don’t understand why one would ignore the southwest). Then I see that roof terrace/balconies are desired. Preferably with access to the roof terrace from the bedroom. Whether that makes sense, whether everything has to be implemented, whether I see it this way or otherwise, that is secondary: if you set this as the goal, then it is achieved. I also read that it should not be a conventional standard house but an architectural design that not only thinks practically but also works with sight lines and optics. Whether this is liked here in the forum does not matter.
E.g. the dining room: some people want exactly this coziness, but the sight lines. Often hard to combine, here it would have worked.
Whether it shouldn’t be somewhat more "villa-like" for the surroundings of the property (red brick, white-trimmed old villas), one might also have to decide.
You have to tell us what is approved and fits in your area.
3. The huge balconies both taper to a sharp point, they are unusable there, maybe for flowers/plants.
The points provide access, one to the bedroom, one for window cleaning to the north... The point is not even visible in the view, is it?
Or wouldn’t you have these concerns?
No.
Not like that.
But I wouldn’t feel the need either to plaster the whole house with balconies and terraces. Ultimately, the south side is defined by your wish to have a covering. The planner made a roof terrace with bedroom access out of it.
4. 1st floor would probably have to make the study into a dressing room. The bathroom is quite small for this house, no sauna possibility. No bathroom on the 2nd floor, but shower on the ground floor??
Moving the rooms around would be easy. Still, you have to know the requirements. Did the planner know about the sauna wish? And so on.
I would like to try something out, but it is not supposed to be my dream house but to correspond to your wishes.
I would first suggest (regarding your concerns, assuming the exterior appearance and basic idea appeal to you): quarter-turned staircase on the outer wall, so that the upper floor is reached as well.
I’d also like to ask again:
Upper floor: how do you make the air space accessible? Should the office be used as an office in the upper floor, or is that just a name and will be allocated to the child?
Just write down your wishes with the room program. Any suggestion makes no sense if you don’t know what should be implemented and what is nice-to-have.
