Hello everyone,

Today we received our first draft from the architect.

Development plan/restrictions
Plot size: 735 sqm
Slope: yes, approximately 2 m decline along the entire length
Edge development: yes, the garage is built on the edge
Number of parking spaces: double garage with basement replacement room
Number of floors: 2 full floors, no basement
Roof shape: hip/pyramid roof
Style: city villa
Orientation: see plan

Requirements of the clients
Style, roof shape, building type
Basement, floors
2 people, 27+29, childless, with Chihuahua
No office planned
Few to no overnight guests per year
Modern construction method
Open kitchen, kitchen island
4-6 dining seats
No fireplace, only underfloor heating
Terrace and garden
Garage, carport

House design
Who designed it: architect
What is not liked? The client currently does not like the front view 100% because it is partially without windows
Preferred heating technology: air/heat pump

Why is the draft as it is now?
Preliminary discussion with the architect, who has already inspected the plot
The large sliding window was initially planned on the south side, but of course it can also face east.
That is why no terrace is drawn yet.
The garage roof was set lower than the house roof so that it is permissible as a border garage.

& now you go ahead, what would you do differently & why? What do you think is well done?

Please write again what the development plan specifies/demands. What about the site plan? Can you upload it with the building boundary and dimensions marked and the slope!!! - very important - also indicated? How much slope falls on the building boundary? Your own drawing is sufficient. This is important, because one can already see that the house hangs in the east on your property. What is supposed to go there?



Why then 2 children’s rooms?

It would be nice if you could write what thoughts went into it. What do you want?

I like the floor plan. You have implemented many of the things that are always preached here: children's room facing south, bedroom accessible through the dressing room, bathrooms stacked. In the house itself, you might eventually lack storage space because you can't store everything in the garage due to temperature and humidity. Then you might be missing the office/guest room, which most people include in their floor plans. The issue of the slope should be clarified urgently. 2m is almost a whole floor.

Thank you ♥️ Regarding the slope: it will be filled up and possibly a retaining wall will be built. The architect is familiar with the property.
