Hello,
we are building with Team Massivhaus in Pinneberg. Actually, we wanted to outfit our house (with a captain's gable) with facing bricks on the ground floor and plaster on the upper floor. But now our architect said that the captain's gable can only have one of the two and recommended plaster only. However, I have doubts whether it will still look good.
My question: Is it really not possible to make the gable half/half? Is there a good (free) software with which one can simply design a house from the outside (our construction company does not offer this)? I have already searched Google for photos, but apparently, we are the first to have this wish.
The height between the window (on the ground floor) and the roof (or eaves) is very important to me, as a small distance looks very squat. Can you simply raise the ground floor by, for example, 10 cm, or is this only possible with enormous costs? (Another idea would be to raise the knee wall, but Team Massivhaus says this is only possible with reinforced concrete and therefore high costs.)
