First draft: 2-storey with staggered shed roof

Do the situation at the exit a favor by giving the house more depth. Is the ridge direction predetermined like this, but is it allowed to be perpendicular to the house axis? I do not necessarily consider a kink in the building composition to be necessary; a shadow edge or a break in the textures can also work well there.

Why the air space should arise directly above the dining table is not clear to me. It serves no purpose for sitting comfortably at the table.

Then I must have presented that a bit incorrectly. The air space is only to be created in the entrance area. Basically the first 2 meters upon entry and then with a railing to the hallway on the upper floor. Do you think there will also be a big echo there? Between the hallway and dining table we would probably want to add a floor-to-ceiling door. Exactly for the problem that, if necessary, noise from the living room/kitchen can be prevented from going “upstairs.”

The idea of a counter in the kitchen I basically find OK. In the drawn arrangement a larger area arises in the corner. What would happen with it?

We would like a terrace on the right side. So that you can still have the west sun here after work and it is somewhat more sheltered from the wind here. I thought one would then need a corresponding width as a passage. Do you think that is too much?

So platform or 2/4-turn with the roof slope, thus completely contrary to your straight stairs. But it may also stem from the fact that I can’t stand this floor plan shape any longer.

So straight stairs are not a must. We could also get along with 1/4-turn or something like that. Would that give us many more options?

Do the situation at the exit a favor by giving the house more depth. Is the ridge direction fixed like that, or may it be perpendicular to the house axis?

Ridge direction is not fixed. Due to the desire to have at least 6 m of garden to the south, we would prefer not to have more depth in the house. I consider 6 m already very narrow, or can one also work with less here?

In the garden, you don't notice every centimeter - but between the end of the stairs and the table or between the stair exit and the door frame of the adjacent rooms, you do.

Then I must have presented that somewhat incorrectly. The air space should only be created in the entrance area

Even worse The draft then goes upwards

Exactly for the problem that you can avoid noise from the living room/kitchen going "up" if necessary.

Is the hallway a restricted area? Well then, as already said: staggered floor plans offer you almost all possibilities of room concepts. In this respect, I believe that an architect (not a draftsman) can still present a lot of possibilities. You can place the terrace in a house corner with the property slope to the SW. Why actually two-storey? (Headline)

Is the hallway a restricted area?

What do you mean by that? I'm clueless here ops:

Why actually two-story?

I'm not a fan of sloping ceilings therefore we wanted to make full use of the eaves height of 6m.

I’m bringing up my basic idea again and showing you my expanded ideas.

What do you think of this expanded design?

I have said goodbye to the straight staircase and have come to terms with a 1/4 turn staircase.
The study has moved up to the upper floor (including a large window area).

The terrace is still oriented to the south and west.

Do you see any major issues in this floor plan that could be problematic in everyday life? What potential changes do you think this floor plan still has?
