Which participants do you mean? Most of you are probably here out of boredom, so that life time even gains a meaning for some thanks to my posts. :p
I rarely speak up here. Actually, only when I’m bored :p In other words, when I have nothing better to do. I also often read here as a short relaxation in between work. You almost feel like you “know” the particularly active forum members. And improving floor plans is for me something like doing crossword puzzles. I just enjoy that. If I can help someone in the process, that really makes me happy. Sometimes, though, the tone here annoys me so much that I don’t even feel like it anymore and would rather read a good book. It’s nice that there are always posts that stand out to me positively in terms of netiquette, e.g. #28.
Overall, I found this thread entertaining so far. I’m surprised that I’m obviously the only one here out of boredom and not out of charity. :rolleyes: I hope you won’t stone me in the future; I’m happy to continue giving tips and my two cents on floor plans when I have boredom, uh, time.
Of course, I also have my opinion on your floor plan. The open plan has a nice size and I would also like the kitchen. Entrance + wardrobe is also nicely spacious. Staircase in the living room is a matter of taste, but it could be staged nicely there. For example, cantilever or folding structure. Sleeping, bathroom, and dressing room work well. The children's bathroom is quite small and especially badly located. I would make a utility room upstairs and only technical and storage rooms downstairs. I find the exterior views totally dull. The symmetry with the bay window and the shed roof don’t fit together for me at all. A roof terrace would only make sense to me if it faces a different direction than the garden terrace. But I would probably just delete the attic without replacement.
