Hello supporters!
Thank you very much for your comments, I will try to address them one by one:
Unfortunately, the site planning is still not clear to me. What is the terrain supposed to look like on the east side of the house? I am especially interested in these walls or floors regarding material, slope, fall protection, and water disposal:
Here, large boulders from the local quarry are to be used, the top part with a flat slope. Possibly, the railing could be omitted due to this design, but that needs to be looked at.
The dressing room door opens into the 2m line. It will always be in the way. The best solution is to leave it out. I would like to have the depth of the wardrobe in writing, and not as a raw construction dimension, but the final footprint including plaster, baseboard, and all that jazz. Does he want the carpenters to get you the wardrobes? I call that an emergency solution when you can’t install standard wardrobes but have to go to a carpenter with a run-of-the-mill floor plan.
The bathroom planning is a catastrophe. You enter and immediately run into a wall. Absurd. By the way, the door is not a standard one. In the main bathroom, that is unacceptable.
Please specify the exact pitch of the stairs!
The biggest trick is the chimney through the ridge beam. Before you ask: no, it should not be cut through!
Why do you want to build with this gentleman at all? Has he shown you his architecture diploma?
Regarding the dressing room: true, the door is not ideally placed, we have also thought about simply leaving it out. For the cost calculation, it should remain in there for now. I think especially upstairs, with stud walls, we can still optimize somewhat after the cost calculation.
Regarding the wardrobe, it’s not about a carpenter but a "do it yourself" variant from Ikea components (to save costs). According to the statement, they should fit.
Regarding the bathroom: yes, it looks odd with the wall in front of the door. However, we looked at a house he built, where the distance between door and shower wall was even smaller, and because the door is usually never fully open when entering the bathroom, it didn’t really bother us. I’ll take your comment on the door gladly.
I would have to inquire about the stair pitch, can’t say anything about it.
Well, the chimney immediately caught our attention, too. The statement was: not nice, but feasible. What do you think? Is that really a no-go?
But gladly: suggestions and proposals for optimized bathroom planning?
Why we want to build with him, just the most important:
- architects in the region seem to be quite busy, sometimes you don’t even get an answer; we don’t have that impression here
- we like the houses he built in the region and the builders recommend him
- he can support/train well with the own work and, according to the builders’ recommendation, is a "practitioner"
- he is building the house next door at the same time and wants to use synergies; on the other hand, he will often be on the construction site
No, no diploma shown
Edit: 24 cm exterior walls? What is the exact build-up?
Window in the dressing room is missing.
The window in the dressing room is deliberately not included for now but would be easy to retrofit. The reason is that we do not consider it strictly necessary and we have no UV radiation on the clothes etc.
Regarding exterior walls comi
