Ok, I think the questions about the noise area/chill area have been clarified after some "thinking". Unfortunately, I can no longer edit the post. You probably mean that the area where you "live day to day" (noise) is too "close" to the children's room?

One more addition regarding the basement and "how does the attic access the basement":

The "attic residents" come down to the basement via a staircase in the "common hallway". This is the internal lower staircase in the new basement plan (formerly "laundry room").

It is planned that the "basement bar" and "oil tank" (no longer present) belong to the ground floor. The "laundry basement" and "heating" will be communal. The two large basements on the right in the plan are intended to belong to the upper floor.

I unfortunately can’t quite imagine that "visually" right now. Do you have the possibility and above all the desire/time to roughly sketch your idea into the images with the floor plans using Paint or something (no full plan, just roughly sketched)? Then I would have a rough idea.

Does this staircase already exist?


Exactly.

It means that the sofa area is often used as a retreat, whether the kids for watching TV, the football enthusiast for watching soccer, or the Tupperware aunt for the girls' night. You don't want to be constantly confronted with other residents there. Well, girls' night can also be in the kitchen. Nevertheless: if you had options for everything, you would probably place the sofa rather at the end of a room and not in the passage area. A TV evening could become quite stressful over the years as the children grow older. The older the children, the more friends...

MN zones, at best, private and retreat rooms and the active rooms for everyone.

That's okay. However, we are in a themed forum here, and as a questioner you can simply look at the other topics alongside and read how they have solved things, what advice they are given, and what else moves others. Then you quickly get into the mode you should be in ;)
And you also learn how the energy requirements are nowadays, what questions can arise at all, and what you have to deal with. It can also awaken desires you didn't have before. You certainly don't become any dumber.

I experimented a bit because I assumed a gutting. This is what came out (bedroom in the basement).

And, couldn't that be used for a common basement entrance and close this second basement staircase? Of course, only if no living space is actually needed in the basement.

Yes, one could use the basement staircase from the "common corridor" for a shared basement access.

Yes, it already exists.


Yes, fits. That makes absolute sense and is understandable. Therefore: more than convinced that the previous plan was complete nonsense.
After some more minutes of thinking, I also understood what you mean. I was just too hasty with my contribution.



Admittedly... my previous posts hardly convince that I had already read several other “floor plan” topics beforehand. Unfortunately, I completely lack the talent for something like this. I can’t manage to transfer these ideas and remain stuck with the rooms already there or with a layout where you’d say "yes, you can do that. But only at most in a rental apartment and even then rather - well." I am always amazed to see what is possible. But I just can’t get it to work for myself. As they say in school, “no transfer performance delivered.” So, many thanks for your help.

With technical topics like energetic renovation (what is mandatory, what is optional), funding, sizing of heat pumps, indoor ventilation, and such, I’m much more in the subject. Transfer skills are much easier for me there as well.

“Playing with floor plans” is unfortunately not my thing at all.

So, once again, many thanks for your floor plan idea. I would never have come up with it. I like it. Thanks.
I have already looked at it and noticed details here and there and found points that made me think. I’ll try to add more of my own ideas. But I have already caused one or two knots in my head again :D

With which program could you create the draft so quickly? With SweetHome3D it would have taken me several hours at least.
