Can you please answer the question from post #26. What does the height of the eave refer to?
What speaks against such an arrangement?

Did I overlook the elevation plan? Where did the planner get the heights from?
Why did you initially hide the GS plan from us? So much information is missing here???? Why suddenly 3 children's rooms?
Maybe photos would also help to imagine the site. The surroundings are also quite nice to know.

Hello everyone,
so the 700 sqm both in the title and in the first post was a typo. It should actually be 600 sqm as we have exactly 572 sqm.
This time I actually attached the picture with the height measurements. Unfortunately, I forgot it yesterday. The ground slopes slightly flatter towards the south, but I think this is negligible. To the north and west there is a street 4m wide. I recorded a few height points for this. The points are in the middle of the street (2m distance from the ground).

We have discussed your idea of a basement level with direct access to the garden for kitchen, dining, etc., the sleeping area on the upper floor and northern access.
How would you imagine the access for guests in this case? Would they enter through the front door near the bedrooms and then have to go one floor down to the dining area?
We did some research on how to solve this and had the idea of a kind of split-level solution. The entrance area on the north side is near street level and the upper floor (sleeping) and basement (living) would be reached via half a flight of stairs.
What do you think about that? I have sketched the example only for better illustration. The entrance area and stairs do of course not fit at all yet.
We have the following paragraph in the development plan:
Plinth height:
The top edge of the raw floor in the ground floor of the plot, whose natural terrain is higher than the adjacent street, must not be higher than 40 cm above the natural terrain. Measurement is made at the valley-side center of the house parallel to the street.
What is defined as the ground floor in such cases? The basement, the upper floor, or the entrance level?

I also consider this variant of the rough planning to be the best! There is no reason to relocate the garage or carport to the west side. Then you make sure that the access in the north is on ground level. With a 10% slope, for a 9-meter deep house that keeps 3 meters away from the street, you get about 120 cm higher at the terrace, including the terrace depth 150 or 160.. how do others do it? Use the excavation of the house as a terrace, garden access from the terrace with a nice garden staircase to two arranged lawn/bed levels. You can also arrange the terrace offset right away, that enlivens it. When there are heights to overcome, you create barriers, so no stairs between house and garage and also not full height in front of the entrance. That creates connections. If it goes downward and split-level or other ideas are not satisfactory, place the stairs in the garden. It is not walked on several times a day all year round. You can design it quite nicely and it’s not uncommon. Personally, I would probably do split-level. Different from what the OP planned because I like it open. With 2-3 children, the layout also makes sense to me, only then the house will probably be more expensive than possible. Again, the garden remains, which is connected to the terrace by stairs.

With the house size or the size of the upper floor and 3 children, it only works if the parents make concessions with the size of the bedroom and dressing room so that each child gets at least their 14, 15m² and the bathroom has a reasonable size.
You have to consider anyway whether a room where you spend 8 hours a day, mostly (not the whole ;)) sleeping, including the dressing room, really needs to be 20m² while you want to have a 12-year-old living in 11m², who basically spends the whole day there.
At the latest at 12, 13, the children no longer sit in the living room playing Lego, but spend most of the time in their room...

What does the architect do professionally, and with which specification sheet was he fed? By the way, I always have to think of Karl Lagerfeld's opinion about people wearing sweatpants when I read rooms labeled as "living" in floor plans intended for hanging out in front of the TV.
