Bungalow - approx. 146 m² - improvement suggestions

Scale of the suboptimalities.

Are they really there? Or just a matter of taste? Behind the kitchen is the office.

Many rooms for the house size

Can you please fill out the questionnaire

No, the office has its own access to the hallway. To get around the bed to the dressing room, you move with robot-dance precision at a right angle. In the living room, you first pass the counter, then glide along the slanted wall before you slalom behind the table by the fireplace into a seating area club room. Quite a lot of zigzagging for the planning goal, despite the open space not looking directly at the stove from the sofa. Most of the furniture could be screwed down, as their location would hardly be variable. In a resort, you would find this a great bungalow, but from there you would also go to the pool or the tennis court and spend the evening playing dice. Try acting this out pantomimically with roof battens placed as walls on the lawn on the property. Your plan is typically amateurish with a romantic idea of the real "sizes."

Strange why no one fills out the questionnaire here anymore. No arms, no cookies!

I like your floor plan. It simply has charm and is not something off the shelf! Certainly, some paths take getting used to, like the way to the couch, but in my eyes not impractical. Personally, I would only reconsider the wall between the living and dining areas. It just takes up space and, combined with the small adjoining hallway, you are quite limited in terms of arrangement and size itself.

And let's be honest: holiday feeling at home is certainly not the worst . We have also "rebuilt" our holiday home according to our ideas and German law. It is also a bit quirky, has charm for us, and we would do it exactly the same way anytime. (For example, child, child, shower bath, hallway look exactly the same in our floor plan as in yours )

Why is the design the way it is now?
After several visits to various show homes, we decided to build a bungalow. We especially liked the houses from HausCompagnie, in particular the fine extras such as the cathedral ceiling, wood-aluminum windows, and the skylight for more light in the room. We also thought that the shape of the house fits well on the plot.
This was followed by our own design via RoomSketcher, which was then implemented by the planner from HausCompagnie. Unfortunately, there was no proper evaluation of our floor plan (but this is also common practice at HausCompagnie). Since we have moved several times professionally, we only had the experience from the houses we have lived in so far (both positive and negative). Based on this, we also considered the room sizes that seemed sensible to us.

Especially good: all rooms accommodated, parents’ area, children’s area.
The additional wall in the living room is intended to avoid being completely restricted by the furniture and to enable the positioning (couch opposite or freestanding in the room).
