we have a corner plot reserved and are having problems with the orientation of the house
Was the plot not known during the house planning? Was the house designed for this plot? Or was it planned without a plot?
The original plan was that the carport and storage room would go into the "corner" with the hook, and the house would then be shifted more or less in that direction. This would create a garden in the southwest. Since this plan does not work,
The attached carport with the passage is something I would now try to avoid. Not only children walk between cars, but also the parcel delivery person with unwieldy packages. Or visitors arrive with several people. Also a no-go for me, although I don’t see any great additional danger for children here compared to other driveways. I consider this often described “shifting the house into a corner” to get as much area as possible but at the expense of areas that need space and are necessary, to be the second big mistake of home builders. (The first would be to plan the house without a plot first). A house on a plot ideally has four sides. So you have four garden areas that can be used individually. That the sun worshipper is in the south, the shady spot in the north, the sundowner spot in the west or the vegetable corner in the east is due to the sun. It is a constant that you can plan with. What is difficult, however, are the different needs of residents and dear visitors, the children, and over the years changing needs. Also neighbors and the street, so visibility as well as views could play a role. I don’t want to write novels here – some people don’t want to understand that anyway. But that most people want to get on and off the yard and carport quickly and easily, that is understandable. Also that play equipment and colorful mess should not be visible from the stylish living room, but rather on the kitchen side. The kitchen then preferably with a door to the east garden, where the herbs are harvested. Organic waste wants to be hidden, and wheelbarrow and other tools should also be stored somewhere where they can be accessed from all four sides if you don’t want to put them away immediately. For this reason, I see absolutely no reason not to plan the carport in the possible NE corner, and use the area behind it, the so-called “hook,” for organic waste, laundry, and discarded flower pots. Incidentally, that area also provides a nice shaded terrace, unfortunately only accessible from the utility room, but you can’t have everything. The house then naturally docked and shifted 2 meters down.
Initial orientation according to building plan in east-west direction.
Note: Your attic has north/south, and the arrow also points north/south.
