Hello dear all,
my dad wants to convert a larger storage room on the 1st floor of an industrial building into offices. The interior dimensions are 16m x 16.75m. However, there are a few things to consider:
- there are quite a lot of columns spread across the room
- my dad would like every 2 offices to share a restroom and a mini kitchen
- the restrooms should be located as close together as possible to centralize water supply and disposal
- at the southern end there is an emergency ladder – the corresponding window is marked in the draft and should remain accessible as an escape route.
It concerns the light yellow area:
Top right on the plan is south – but that probably won’t matter much for the offices. The left half of the building is used for other purposes. At top left on the plan is an annex. Only the purple-colored walls are fixed.
I made a draft. Due to the windows and the escape route, I don’t see infinitely many solutions. I wanted to ask you what you think? Is it possible to place the kitchens inward like this?
