Floor plan design of a semi-detached house for 1 family (4 persons) on a small plot

I wonder why you, philipp013, do not orient yourself on existing duplex floor plans that are tried and tested and work. The floor plans you are showing now are really not appealing, practical, or efficient at all.

I join the opinion. A zigzag hallway is exotic because no one can do anything with it – very difficult or impossible to furnish. And yes: a wardrobe in the bedroom is also not planned, just as a double bed cannot be placed

Thanks for the hint. So I managed to fit the furniture into the tool, a 2m wardrobe just about, 1.80m bed as well, of course there isn’t much space around it, we are aware of that (hence the later attic extension), until then we are considering that the youngest will get the small room in the next few years until he is 4/5.. You confirmed my worries about the hallway. My problem is that we have to designate two parking spaces and we won’t fit them otherwise, except with an enclosed parking space (probably without a bay window then). My idea was to only have a half-height wall between the hallway and stairs to create more openness.

are you referring to the hallway or more than that? I only planned the hallway myself, the rest came from the planner.

The planner should have made some proposals for the furnishing of the ground floor. Why don’t you plan the [DG] right away and set up the office there first? Or the office in the basement. The office on the ground floor turns everything into a planning nightmare.

The upper floor is not so convincing either, but room 6 could first be used as a dressing room until the roof is expanded. In my opinion, the ground floor is clearly for the round shelf.

We are also not particularly satisfied with the planner, I have to say. We neither get help with our wishes nor clear statements about what might simply not work. The office in the attic would not work currently because the room up there is not big enough for more than two small or one large room. In fact, the living-dining room is currently a few square meters larger than in the planner’s standard plan, do you think because of the office or simply because of the shape of the room? The office itself is actually just right for me with its small size because I don’t need more.

The upper floor is also not that convincing, but room 6 could initially be used as a dressing room until the roof is developed. In my eyes, the ground floor is clearly for the round shelf.

Room 6 is the staircase, I apparently didn’t think of naming it as such.

I don’t understand that, we oriented the small office and the small guest WC on plans from existing model houses. The floor plan on the upper floor is still (except for a staircase shifted 50 cm “upwards” for a larger bathroom and the entrance area) like the standard house, just larger due to extension and bay window.
