Final floor plan planning - Rose-colored glasses

Customers are received.

And then they watch and listen to the underwear spinning in circles?

if I have to leave the apartment for that.

I don't really find that so bad, it's right outside the door. Many condominiums have separate laundry rooms in the basement. Only in combination with an office rather impractical.

We planned a hole to the office

But probably noise will come through there as well. So the customer not only experiences the washing, but also the family's toilet visits?

These things make noise!

...and make it warm. No, I also think that is not an option. And customers are supposed to be received in the office??? Next to the pile of dirty laundry or the running washing machine when the underwear passes by the washing machine window? You can't be serious!

yes, the guest WC is true. But I want to have the shower and sink separate for our children. If guests have to go to the WC and everything from the children is "lying around" there, I don't like it.

Your children are supposed to shower for years in a 2.89m2 bathroom? At 15 they will refuse. Even a 1.34m2 guest toilet is very tight. Remove the wall there. If spontaneous visitors ever do come: before they are upstairs, you'll quickly look into the bathroom and just throw the stuff lying around into the children's room.

Go through the entire process of "doing laundry," and you will realize that it doesn’t work that way.

It’s not just a matter of throwing the dirty laundry into the washing machine and taking it out again.

Laundry is collected, and I am particularly thinking of, for example, my husband’s sports socks, which definitely smell when dirty. Should you present this scent to the customer? In summer, you can hang laundry outside. What do you do in winter? Or when it rains? Carry the wet laundry into the apartment?

Where is the ironing done?

I don’t see a sink in the office (which I think is good!), so what do you do with the condensation water from the dryer? Carry it through the hallway to the guest bathroom, which is so small that it will probably be difficult to empty the container in the washbasin?

Laundry is not only collected but also sorted. At least I have light delicates, dark delicates, towels, etc. for 60°, boiling laundry. Okay, you have a collector in the office, but where should the other piles go when the dirty laundry has been sorted for washing? For me, the sorted piles lie on the floor waiting for their turn in the washing machine, but that will hardly be possible if the room is also used as an office.

I would make the office a bit smaller and add the gained square meters to the bathroom or children’s bathroom (the entire children’s bathroom, without a dividing wall to the WC, which has already been noted) and place the washing machine and dryer there.

Having them in the office is absolute nonsense.

I would paint the wet room children's bathroom and place the washing machine there

Moreover, I don’t find either of the bathrooms appealing. A second or children's bathroom is nice if you have the space. Here, it would be too tight for me. Furthermore, the children's bathroom doesn’t even have a window.

Keep the guest WC and add the children's bathroom to the master bathroom – so only one bathroom. Add a few square meters from the office, then it will be a nice, large bathroom with enough space for a utility corner with a washing machine and dryer, and there will also be a washbasin nearby.

I don’t know what the grey and red walls mean. Is one load-bearing and the other not? Did I miss something?

You should give up the dream of your own parents' area given the spatial conditions.
