Comments on floor plan design welcome

I would put tall evergreen plants in front of the power box

...how intrusive! I think that first of all the power box should be clarified so that you know where the house and the rooms (preferably everything on wheels) will go—

I think that first and foremost the little power house should be clarified, so that one knows where the house and the rooms (preferably everything on wheels) will go-

Hehe, not everyone can align their house by a lake, others just have the little power house

just to be clear: we do not want to plant the electrical box (we probably aren’t allowed to), but rather orient the house so that we do not notice it. 11ant can tell you how idyllic these are.

Whether I orient my house towards a lake, or in the negative sense do not orient it towards something, both are possible.

Entrance on the side means the front door is under the carport. --> less light and the carport has to be wider.

Whether I orient my house towards a lake or, in the negative sense, orient it away from something, both are possible.

You are right there; but if this orientation means that the house is simply positioned incorrectly in terms of desired use, cardinal direction, and so on, then neither the lake nor the invisible power house benefits me. The lake applies to us, so it is a good point on your part. At some point, we realized that we ultimately cannot subordinate everything to a lake view and thereby lose living quality elsewhere. For us, it was clear that the living spaces should be optimally oriented within the framework of the development plan, and only then does a lake view option come into play. In one area, for example, we will be looking at a stable building, which stands in the middle of nature but next to our property. To some extent, we will see it (eventually no longer perceive it as such), and maybe we will put a garden shed there anyway or plant something to at least partially hide it. However, we would never rotate the house or arrange the rooms in such a way that we wouldn’t see it. Honestly, I believe that the eye will get used to it and will soon no longer perceive it as so drastic because it will soon go out of one’s own focus. However, an awkward floor plan would torment me for a lifetime. Ergo: Neither a lake view nor a power house view could ever make me orient my house in a way that the floor plan or important functions would be lost to me. I like to eat apple cake with cream... but I prefer apple cake without cream to lemon cake with cream.

You are right; but if this orientation results in the house simply being wrongly positioned in terms of usage wishes, compass direction, etc., then neither the lake nor the invisible power house is of any use to me.

yes, I fully agree with you, but
- in ant11's eyes the picturesque little power house stands in the east. There are also very tall trees there, so no sun comes from that direction. At the same time, the driveway will come from the east by car, so the carport is convenient there (exactly where the curb is lowered).

I agree with you regarding the north-facing view. (Garden and forest behind). I would love more outlook in that direction.
