Construction of a 144 sqm bungalow in Fichtenwalde (near Potsdam)

Ratio of hallway / living-dining with 20 m² to 30 m² not suitable. On the other hand, the kitchen with pantry is "too large" in relation. I also find the furnishing of living / dining difficult (just tight). If you position the dining table directly after the kitchen (where else?), the wide access to the hallway gives the impression that you are sitting "in the hallway."

That’s also why I asked about the actual furniture dimensions and positions. At the moment, you are actually sitting between the hallway and the terrace door, next to what I consider a further limiting wall to the kitchen and pantry. I still don’t see how you can get past the cabinet in the hallway, which is basically in the middle of the way. I can’t read the measurements, but just looking at it, it looks like something that’s blocking the way.

Maybe you defend some things because you don’t want trouble with the planner... but it’s NOT finalized yet and you can still make adjustments. I would consider having some discussion versus maybe living permanently partially uncomfortably. I don’t want to say anything bad about the floor plan itself, it has to fit you alone, but when reading it, I get the feeling (and I have this feeling often with other TEs too) that you don’t really take the criticism as constructive and as a “gift,” but rather quickly come up with reasons to defend the status quo. I would really advise you to look at every single point of criticism --- with an open mind --- and even encourage the people here to raise their critiques and, if needed, to have things changed... or not! Ultimately, you can live with almost any situation, so the statement “that’s how we have it now in the apartment” is a conversation stopper that shuts down almost any criticism, which is ultimately meant to help you specifically.

that you do not really accept the criticism as constructive and as a "gift" but rather quickly come up with reasons to defend the status quo.

The character of an apartment often comes through a lot.

Or it’s so irrelevant to us whether 3 sqm more or less are visible...

But we already recognized that with Ybias. Nothing was accepted – only what he “worked out” himself, he accepted :cool:
Why should it be different now? It is what it is.

Now I know what it is: if you rotate the bedrooms and then have the utility room where the kitchen is, you are close to ’s (?) bungalow from memory, if the local bedroom is then added to the common room. This results in a room to be zoned and an inviting openness from the entrance.

The dimensions and layout of the rooms are quite coherent. Personally, I don’t like the dressing room and the fiddly built-in wardrobe options in the cloakroom. Besides, I find the living room far too dark - a few less wall stubs and thus more spaciousness could actually make this "my house", if the open space gets at least additional uncovered window area. But my house would always have an open roof with air space ;)
