First floor plan draft semi-detached house 90m² floor area

Only change the entrance. Then bicycles and mowers don’t have to go through the whole house, but only through the hallway.
The roof above... uh, I just see: it doesn’t fit in.
Well then, what about the storage room in the living areas on the ground floor and upper floor? Where does the broom go? Cleaning supplies? Vacuum cleaner?

Exactly the staircase must "point" northwards in this direction due to the low height.
We really haven’t given much thought to the storage room, depending on the design of the staircase there might at least be some space under the stairs.

Many say that. But it doesn’t really make much difference. For the craftsman, “pennies”. And even if it’s 500€: for an optimum design those should be possible. After all, you also treat yourself to a second washbasin and a second shower,

If it’s just a few hundred euros, that surely wouldn’t stop us. For example, moving the kitchen in L-shape to the southwest, then maybe a small island would be possible at the position where the coffee table is currently drawn. Then possibly also the column solution regarding the central wall. I will sketch that out; in any case, an interesting suggestion especially since we probably spend more time in the kitchen during the day (southwest orientation) than on the couch. Then the proximity to the terrace would also certainly be advantageous.

One of the children's rooms is a scam: the entrance is a bottleneck. The drawn-in furniture shows that one would rather place that one shelf somewhere else.

I think you’re talking about the children’s room in the north? One possibility would be to align and ultimately mirror the current bedroom and the northern children's room by removing the dressing room and moving the partition wall slightly south. Especially considering the parents’ room under the roof (see below). Later on, for the children, the option to have equally sized rooms.

You have plenty of storage space in the basement...
The intended storage space there is not worth mentioning because you can hardly enter it. We have such a room ourselves under the sloping roof – you go in there a bit crooked.
I would, also because you lack a storage space within reach, make the parents' bedroom up there with sliding doors in the 180-cm area and then a small chamber, with clothes at reachable height in front (normal), and under the slope to the back low shelves that can be rolled forward. Then you have used the sloping roof and also have your peace.

That’s why a crawl storage, whether you actually use it remains to be seen, but the front part would definitely be usable. Possibly move the door towards the staircase to make a rather rectangular room and place the entrance to the presumably little-used crawl space simply inside the room, i.e., extend the partition wall straight through.

Upstairs relaxes a bit then: there set up a small PC-file-folder-vacuum cleaner closet with about 8 sqm.
Why is no office planned? Where do the children print their documents? Or you?

The idea was that the computer as well as the printer are located in one of the basement rooms; for this we have a 1.5 m wide cupboard in which our files etc. are stored. I just wouldn’t call that an office. Initially, we will certainly want to stay on the same level where the children sleep, especially the one-year-old often gets lost at night in our 4-room apartment while searching for the parents’ bedroom. But in perspective see the above considerations and then the smaller children's room could be repurposed.

One’s own imagination should suffice to draw a window there.

I think so too; I already told the draftsman and don’t see why a small window couldn’t be placed facing north there.

Basement: the casemates should not be where the terrace is. That’s not nice then and leads to misplanning in height etc.
I would probably undermine/grade this square between AB outdoors and the southwest corner of the house and then make a nice residential window in the basement there, then a recreation room could be created below. Is the basement supposed to be heated? What ceiling height is planned?

By “casemates” I assume the “windows” or shafts are meant. Very good point that hadn’t occurred to us so far. The solution with the grading sounds good, that would at least solve the issue for one room. It was planned that the two southern rooms “Basement 1” and hobby basement are heated. Room height 2.45 m (see pictures below).

Measurements everywhere would be very helpful. It’s a bit like guessing.

I have photographed the plans with a bit more distance so that the measurements should hopefully be visible.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Depending on the design of the staircase, there might at least be a little space under the stairs.

No, under the ground floor staircase is the cellar staircase.
Therefore, I would give the "storage" a bit more space in the planning.
The dressing room with a width of 180 is more of a space waster than a gain.

At first, we will certainly want to sleep on the same level as the children, especially since the 1-year-old often gets lost at night in our 4-room apartment while looking for the parents' bedroom.

I stick to my opinion: Convert the attic into the parents' area with a walk-in closet; possibly use a room on the upper floor as a bedroom for the first three (4.5) years because of the children. What is not functionally implemented now will not be done later, and the added value will no longer be there.
The defective dressing room negatively affects the entire upper floor with its "extension." My opinion.

What do you mean by involved in planning? We met with her beforehand and discussed our ideas, and this is now the draft.

I meant who you are and how much control you have over the matter (my assumption was that you and the neighbors are buyers in a semi-detached house developer project). But you are therefore builders, the neighbors as well, and together you have a draftsman. That sounds good.

Yes, that's exactly how it is.

if you plan food and cooking downstairs as suggested, you have complete freedom for the rest of the ground floor.



the niche must be 370cm long 6 x 60 cabinets PLUS 2 x panels PLUS 2 x plaster. In the plan, the row spacing is 120, the island is 270 x 120cm in size.

Window/terrace door are only exemplary

I am only slowly getting used to the way your (kitchen?) planning program displays things.
