Hello everyone,
I am currently planning a two-story single-family house with a basement with the architect. Basically, the floor plan is set, but I have not yet reached a conclusion regarding the staircase and entrance area.
Two variants are shown in the attachment.
Variant 1 Straight staircase:
Visually, I like this, but what bothers me a bit is that you always have to pass the "dirty area" by the front door. I would pull the stair steps further into the hallway so you can enter from the side, but I do not find it ideal.
Variant 2 Quarter-turn staircase:
The advantage here is that the entrance area is somewhat separated. The disadvantage is that the front door with the side glass element becomes about 14cm narrower. And you should probably notch the ceiling around the staircase dimension of 1.40m to have enough headroom.
For the WC, I would plan a small wardrobe instead of the shower for everyday clothing and shoes.
In your opinion, what is the better solution? Or any completely different ideas?
Best regards
Tobias
