Exactly ONE 1.01m wide window for a children's room with 17 sqm floor area. In addition, the sunlight comes from the west (according to the architect's plan). Take a 50cm shooting slit window with 3m height with lateral sunlight and 40cm masonry. That thing also has 1.5 sqm... Guess how much sun comes into that room? And now you widen the window to 0.75, 1.00, 1.25, 1.50m etc. THOSE are worlds apart. It seems that most people here point to the window, maybe there is something to it? ;)

Where do all rooms have 2.8 m² of "windows"? In the children's room and bathroom they are narrower and thus smaller in area.

From your 2.8 m² of windows, only about 2 m² of glass surface is effectively available, because around the glass there is a frame.

With the same window area, horizontal is better because it simply lets more light into the room. With your one-sided arrangement on the upper floor, you get a really dark corner in every room.

The windows are 1.01x2.46 according to the plan, but in the current floor plan 1.21x2.46, which results in just under 3 sqm window area despite the frame. The statement of three times as many windows can only be achieved technically in the attic by large-area roof windows or is simply not correct….

But those are the window openings into which the window frames and presumably the roller shutter boxes in the upper approx. 30 m will still be installed. The glass area at 1.01x2.46 is likely to be a maximum of 0.9x2.00.

How do you live now? Do you have a room available where you can recreate this once by covering the existing windows?

For me, it reads as if the OP is happy with the current window area. In that respect, a checkmark can be put there. After all, the windows are already 1.21m wide, the additional 20cm should make a noticeable difference. What I might also want to add is that for direct light incidence, the upper window area is decisive and not the one near the floor.
