Floor plan 175 sqm gable roof without basement

Well, one could argue that the garage in the design is not approvable. That's quite a blunder. If you insist that relocating it with this floor plan is unacceptable and push hard on this, I could imagine that one could agree on a "compensation" amount and come to a resolution here. On the other hand, the architect, like every market participant, has the right to make corrections. Maybe the argument about the distance from the building plot and the significant loss of trust will help even more. If it comes down to the wire, one can also threaten with publicizing the "shame." Well, but it probably won't happen without losses. What exactly did you sign?

Okay, understood. The garage thing is really a mistake, but sure, he could fix it. Distance to the property: that was our decision. We have a contract for the creation of a house design with a building application. I have been looking at the development plan for a while now. But I don't see any reasons speaking against the current floor plan. Besides the building boundary at the back, I don't see any other restrictions for the property, so I feel like I am overlooking something? The fact that it is a mixed-use plot is not a disadvantage at first, right? The neighbor on the left can build a garage at the boundary, okay. Are there any more restrictions?

"Smaller" ancillary structures are allowed in your development plan outside the building line. So at least when it comes to sheds and children's toys, you don't need to worry.

That won't please my husband. A pool would rather not be possible in that area then.

I do not consider it completely impossible, since the argument is also made with "normal garden use" in the rear part. Maybe a smaller pool instead of 4x9m would do.

Oh yes, the garage. You are required to provide 2 parking spaces. In its current form, they are not approvable. Even if he moves the garage upwards, it covers a window, which can also be objected to. Of course, he can remove the window or only make 2 parking spaces out of it. Then you can build it that way (as long as we stay within the property boundaries with the dimensions). The question then is whether you want it that way? If you ever wanted to build a carport, it would probably be better in the west, where it takes away the last bit of sun that enters your house. Or you run your whole life out from the east carport off your property around the house and back in through the other gate. The kitchen will be as dark as a cave. The utility room has no window at all, the access to the open plan area goes through the kitchen, and the room for child 2 has ugly proportions or is not really a proper room. But if all that doesn't matter, change the parking spaces and start building.

Edit: oh yes, he also has to mark the heat pump. That will get interesting with regard to distances.

Well, yes, the garage. You are required to provide 2 parking spaces. In the current form, they are not approval-worthy. Even if he moves the garage upwards, it covers a window, which can also be complained about. Of course, he can remove the window or make it only 2 parking spaces. Then you can build it that way (as long as we stay within the property boundaries with the measurements). The question then is whether you want it that way? If you wanted to build a carport each, then rather to the west, where it takes away the last bit of sun that reaches your house. Or you run your whole life from the east carport out of your property around the house and back in through the other gate. The kitchen will be dark as a hole. The technical room has no window at all, the access to the open space goes through the kitchen, and the room for child 2 has awkward dimensions or is not even a proper room. But if all that doesn’t matter, change the parking spaces and get building.

Sorry, I thought there were more reasons that spoke against it. There was also a lot written about mixed-use area, neighboring buildings, etc. But yes, the garage is problematic at the moment. We tend to make only one parking space without a garage on the right. That would leave room for a window in the kitchen. At the back left, we would build a carport or a garage. But still in a way that all windows remain. We have to see whether that works. The technical room intentionally has no windows. The access to the pantry through the kitchen was also intentional; it was supposed to be a hidden entrance. But we will change that now to have more tall cabinets. The pantry will be integrated into the technical room. Regarding child’s room 2, I cannot understand the point that it is not a proper room. It has several long walls. Bed, closet, etc. all fit. Large windows are also included. Or am I missing something? The bend does not make the room unusable.
