Noooo! Without a mental grid, the staircase ends up nowhere at the top, the kitchen is too narrow, and a sensible room layout can only work by chance.
Then we misunderstood each other: by "grid" I thought of a modular measurement with which the floor plan is structured. For example, shifting walls in 62.5 cm increments. Using a kitchen width or multiples thereof as such a modular measurement would be misguided – you don’t build owner-occupied residential buildings in a reinforced concrete skeleton construction, after all. But you probably meant the classic suggestion of dividing the rectangle into six parts?
And honestly: the favorite piece of furniture is worn out and/or replaceable after three years.
I didn’t necessarily mean a farmhouse cupboard and its dimensions, but also, for example, a toilet and its position (by the garden and the sauna) – or, in another current thread, the shower, which someone finds most beautiful under the staircase.
These are the kinds of things you can look at one way or another, but it’s clear: if you want them that way, you have to be aware of their dominance in the overall plan. Possibly with the consequence of the realization: they’re not that important after all.
