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?



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.

But exactly THAT is the corset that usually restricts a well-executed design in its planning.
The glossy brochures and the web are full of beautiful sightlines and views, but if you fixate on them, you might have created this one "piece," but the rest is botched.

Best regards in brief

And I meant that a house three stair-lengths wide and five kitchen-widths deep might be the same.

No one is saying that either

Phew, you wrote many answers, I think that's good.

You are right, you can't always plan everything you want.

So a passage from the single-family house to the granny flat wouldn't necessarily have to be there, maybe through the garage. The background is that if you have to get to the parents quickly in an emergency, you don't have to walk around outside first and then find the door of the granny flat locked from the inside, etc...

The garage would be sufficient if it has 1 parking space, a 2nd is not necessarily needed AND there should be a side entrance next to the garage because behind it there is also a small hallway. There should be a small WC and a washbasin there, it could also be in the utility room OK without a shower and sauna. The shower should then go into the toilet room on the ground floor, which should then be made bigger. As for the sauna, it’s of course great if it can fit into that room as well.

But the toilet should definitely be accessible from the garden; the door to it should be in the small hallway from where one can also enter the side entrance next to the garage. In summer, when we very often sit together in the garden with family and friends, the toilet and small washbasin would be very practical.



That’s what we have also considered, but then we can’t find space for the garage.



That’s also how we had thought about it. However, the front door is not centered at the front of the house there and we want the city villa to stand out more from the street, otherwise you have a lot of extensions with one story. We want a kitchen with an island and the dining/living area should be in the corner.

Also here the points mentioned just now apply. Doesn’t a utility room need ventilation slots in the wall to the outside?

Thanks for your drawings, they’re well drawn but the arrangement doesn’t suit us like that.

Our ideas should only be suggestions.

I think you are well advised to have a consultation with an architect (not a planner of a BU) and should then listen to the expert.
