Discussion pitched roof bungalow

no Summer and transition period solar system

Are you sure that is enough? What do you do if it is more heavily cloudy for a few days?

Good morning

Yes, I am sure. The buffer should have a volume of 1200 - 1500 liters.
Collector area 12 - 15 m². Domestic hot water preparation from the buffer.
The house is for 2 people. I should be able to bridge a week of rainy weather with it.

From many years of personal experience from a single-family house built in 2000
10.0 m² collector 800 ltr. buffer and 4 people, it was only in times during summer
when you could anyway use some warmth in the living room that the stove ran for some time.

Is there otherwise nothing to say about the floor plan?
What is the reason for the reluctance? Too unclear?

Hello , I am just an amateur. I haven’t dealt with the dimensions, site plan, or other possibilities for room arrangement. I’m just giving you a few detailed impressions. Personally, I don’t want to have to walk through the dressing room and bedroom to get to the bathroom. But you still have the guest bathroom with a shower in case you really come home very sweaty or dirty. What I like about the bathroom itself is that you get daylight at the sink. (I hope your own body doesn’t cast too much shadow on it.) However, many would prefer the toilet by the window because of odors or, well, because some people apparently like to read the newspaper there. But I do think it's good that you can’t see the toilet directly from the bathtub. The nicest thing is when a guest can get from the front door to the living room via the shortest and most straightforward route possible. If not, though, I also find it completely acceptable. I’m just mentioning it; you have to judge. I like that indirectly, through this multipurpose room, there is another path to the kitchen and that the room can also be used as a dining area. Because you don’t have to store food in the kitchen and can set up cabinets for (Sunday) dishes, (champagne) glasses, and the like in the (large!) living room if needed, I think the kitchen size is quite sufficient. If you provide kitchen wall cabinets. If the wall behind the stove is not load-bearing, it could be removed later if necessary to place a larger kitchen island. I also like that the rooms (except for the slanted wall ) have a well-usable rectangular shape and, in my opinion, the doors are placed sensibly. Regarding the window areas, I’m not sure if it might be a bit too little – a rule of thumb has already been posted here in the forum; you’ll have to look it up and calculate. Note, because of the frames, the actual glass area is smaller later than the rough opening dimensions. Maybe some of this helps you. Regards willWohnen

If you want ripped, head over to the green forum seems solid for two. Exterior view would be interesting otherwise.

Morning

Yes, we are still undecided about the dressing area, bathroom, and bedroom.
It's not really bad, but we are not completely satisfied yet.
We would like to go from the dressing room into the bathroom and into the bedroom; that would please us even more.

I already had the short path to the living area in a previous sketch.
Sounds good and right. I will think about it again.

The wall from the kitchen to the living area is planned to be only half-height, as a counter for a quick tea in the morning and to prevent the kitchen from getting too dark.

All windows on the southwest side should be floor-to-ceiling and room-high, for example in the living room.
7.30 x 3.0 m. Alternatively, we are also considering a glass facade.
It should look something like that and cover the entire building side.

I also gave it a try... ... if already slanted, why not completely?

And then I moved the private rooms to the outermost end, living/dining/cooking in the center, although I am still not 100% satisfied with the space there, but the kitchen has shifted towards the terrace. And some might probably criticize that you basically have to go through the kitchen area to get to the sleeping area. But it has the advantage of a short way to the coffee in the morning.

Utility room/technical room arranged so that you could have direct access from the garage to the pellet storage behind the fireplace.

Probably everything is now a bit oversized. But it’s meant to be a collection of ideas. As always... my roof design is definitely only a conceptual sketch.
