Floor plan discussion based on existing thread

I think it should work with the roof window.

With the knee wall of about 1.4m, it works like that too. A roof window also has something to it.

There are several Junos from Fingerhaus.

I mean the model house Juno in Frankenberg. You can also see it in the picture where the clocks hang in the stairwell.

I’d rather wait for the version from the architect and his calculation. In my opinion, we’re building a castle in the air here anyway.

My opinion too. Basement gone – but overall bigger and knee wall higher.

I’m off for 10 days then.

Declined! We need you here. :)

Rejected! We need you here. :)

I just wanted to prevent speculation. :p

Create a 1 m wide raised bed

Hello Hanghaus, I have noted the idea down anyway. No matter how the slope is eventually supported, that would be a nice idea for the space between the terrace and the slope.

I don’t understand why you would need 3 exits in the basement. Fixed glazing is considerably cheaper; I wouldn’t be interested in spending money for the aesthetics. You even have 6 doors. o_O

I’m curious about the architect’s cost estimate.

We thought so too, as mentioned he left it like this for aesthetic reasons at first. I think one can still react and save a few euros. Certainly not necessary to have 6 doors.

What’s not clear about that?

Hello Katja, good find, there are indeed many parallels. Maybe we could adopt some things. It feels like the hallway takes somewhat more square meters from the rooms here, doesn’t it? As already mentioned, we meant the other Juno variant (exactly like in the Frankenberg model house).

8 steps upwards means about 8x18 = around 144 cm. That means the landing is already about 144 cm above the floor height of the ground floor. But the knee wall should only be just over 100 cm. The landing itself is overall below the 2 m line in the roof area .. depending on story heights, etc., on the upper 30 to 50 cm stair depth, i.e., the outer tread, it could be quite headroom-critical. To judge this exactly, a section drawing is needed.

Hello kbt, unfortunately, I do not have the section drawing, but I saw it with him on Monday. The knee wall was at 1.27 m. Does that help you? I have to provide the section drawing later if available. I will request it.

The same applies to:

No section, no further statement

Then you have no basement but an UG and EG and still plenty of space in the roof. See box at 2.0m and 2.5m

Wouldn’t I then generally increase the living area further? Then I wouldn’t actually need so much space in the UG and OG since some would move into the roof?

Roof windows

What is meant here by Roof windows?

You are welcome to wait. We are also curious but optimistic that we will come together financially with the architect. Our acquaintances with houses already built by him have confirmed that.

Hello Katja, well found, there are indeed many parallels. Maybe we could adopt one or the other thing. It feels like the hallway here takes away a bit more square meters from the rooms, doesn’t it?

I didn’t measure it exactly. But even if, the decisive thing is that a floor plan works. Based on the examples on the internet, you can nicely see what you can still adjust if the hallway becomes too big for you. For example, redesigning the wardrobe in the bedroom into a narrower sideboard. But those are basically the things that an architect should recommend to you. Basically, I think it’s good if your general contractor is a man of action. But what’s missing is the planner who advises you and also a bit of the artist.

As I already wrote, we meant the other Juno variant (just like at the model house Frankenberg)

It’s almost the same just mirrored.
