But that did not succeed. It looks totally massive! :confused:

Because there is still a KS there, the upper floor looks very unnatural. The roof windows are quite high from the outside. There is not much space left for photovoltaics. Oh, and what comes to mind: the HT is too small for the craftsmen and TK. You need standing and installation height for almost everything. The planner just plans it that way; later, during the expansion, it is changed on the advice of the sanitation professionals. To the detriment of the fitness room. What I see: the living/dining area will be dark because no direct light brightens the room through the covered terrace. Basically, I like the idea, but only if a free window compensation is created on an extension or around the corner. In your case, this is not the case. I believe this is nothing here in Germany or Western Europe, rather in the southern countries, or one plans these umbrella roofs among other places in South Africa. The stair bay makes the single-family house look somewhat massive. Here, the five-family houses look the same. So: I would leave the KS and see if the 190 sqm can be optimized a bit.

Thank you very much for your input! We will now discuss these points again with the planning to find alternatives for the use of the attic. But the planning comes from the master builder, so I assumed that it would also work that way with KS/double casement window and HT. Regarding light in living/dining/kitchen: the orientation is SW, also large lift-and-slide door and windows in the kitchen:


But we will also question that critically again...

But your picture already shows that you don't see your roof from below in the garden. Therefore, the roof shape is decided only based on function. A Velux roof window would have to be floor-to-ceiling and at a 30-degree roof angle about 4m long, does that even exist?

Well, the garden is bigger, and I also have the driveway, etc. We don't want to decide solely based on function; there have to be compromises, but we also have to like it. The roof windows are certainly a problem in terms of size, and so the intended concept in the attic no longer really works.
