No, it is west-facing, the bathroom faces north.

Give the office a proper window :)

Best regards, Yvonne

The door on the ground floor to the WC definitely needs to be placed differently. First, it is very tight there and you don't have to wait long before the doors bang into each other.

The position of the refrigerator would bother me. First, it is very far from the cooktop and the sink, and second, the walking paths are further restricted by the "cooking island." Also, I like to always have a surface area directly next to the refrigerator so that I can temporarily place things when unloading or loading it. But that is certainly a matter of getting used to.

On the upper floor, I would definitely give the office a proper window and I would place the window of the lower room further towards the center of the room. I don't really like it directly on the wall.

Apart from the fact that door widths are really around 90cm wide, 74 really seems quite little. Everything looks nice on the plan but in the real world it will be small and also a bit late to change it.

The island counter that you know from American movies and series, I have no experience with it yet, but I can well imagine that it will not only look good. However, it is a bit more distance to the sink.
