It’s simply because nobody has really made alternative suggestions so far. The problem seems to be that it does not appear that you are open to something completely different, and on the other hand, the floor plan as it currently is, is not perceived as salvageable :) It’s also a question of how much the hobbyists here enjoy planning a house that probably will never be built anyway, since you are just gathering ideas for the future. Roughly speaking: You are not allowed to link here, but google for example "Haas nachhaltige Anpassungsmöglichkeiten," there you will find below an example of such a single-family house to two apartments conversion that is clearly better thought out. Yes, the kitchen is open, yes, there is currently only one office, but overall it still seems like a much more solid basis. But that’s why the suggestion here was “back to zero, create a room program” aka “2 children’s rooms, 2 offices (then there is the question of how big they really need to be), closed kitchen, and so on” or also “take a look at existing floor plans.”

Getting drunk on dreams of all modularity to save oneself a clear concept has limits. I would rather advise a hard switch: Villa Kunterbunt gladly also with Schrödinger and/or M. C. Escher, as long as one is in dreamer mode – and after the paradigm shift to reality mode, one proceeds in a structured and planned way with an architect. Hardly any family life path is so highly volatile in reality that a house with static walls could not also be suitable for an appropriately long term. said, mind you, the author of the remark

Yes, I already spoke of a in this sense: where there is a woman, there is advice. Then even Thomas Magnum will grow up so much that even Higgins is amazed ;-)

You are just an incorrigible romantic. From my experience, it usually goes like this: Making plans (the gods laugh), facing reality, tears, starting over. My approach would be to make the tears phase as short as possible and starting over as easy as possible. But hope dies last.

- If the 2nd door in the bedroom is removed, another wardrobe could be placed in this area. If I plan with 2 wardrobes opposite each other, there would still be 1.3m of space between them, which should be sufficient for 2 people to pass each other. Also considered was the idea of using a hinged door with a mirror if you want to see yourself from further away. I no longer believe the room would necessarily always be used as a "dressing room" but rather as a storage room for clothing. The clothes would then be taken out and prepared in the bathroom, possibly showered first.

In principle, the bathroom could also be placed in the center, but then the entrance door would have to be moved upward, which I do not really like. That way, guests would always have to walk through the dressing room.

If so, the bathroom would have to be moved to the lower corner, but then the path from the bedroom would be the same as the current path for the children. Also, the laundry chute would no longer work. And you would have to go through the hallway to get to the dressing room.

The children's bathroom could also be dispensed with as it stands; in my opinion, it would not be a catastrophe if the children had to walk 5 instead of 2 meters to the bathroom.

- As your predecessor already said, the noise insulation would probably be insufficient to have real benefit. As mentioned, it was/was supposed to be a gimmick, but it probably won't work as desired. (Regarding the previous thought: the drywall would only have been installed after the bed was placed; between the door and bed, one could have placed fabric tubes like those used under door gaps, but a bed replacement would then really be very problematic.)

- Regarding the kitchen and windows, I am not exactly sure what you mean. With 2.5 meters width, 2 kitchen units leave 1.3m free in the middle. If a 1.5x1.0m window is placed centrally, in my opinion, this should be sufficient. As said, a lot of light also comes from the dining room.

I find it practical to be able to store groceries after shopping either in the utility room or directly in the kitchen. Likewise, you can also come into the kitchen directly from the front door if you, for example, do not come by car.

- This is my 12th version/layout, so I have already discarded quite a bit. Therefore, I am certainly open to changes. Still, I like this draft best so far because I would have to make the fewest compromises here. You will probably never find a completely perfect plan.

A) Exactly for this reason, it would be useful if both floors could be used separately.

B) What hobby needs 90 sqm? And if so, you would probably have to tear down all the walls ^^

C) Once the house is built, you cannot easily make changes (if not planned before). You also have to consider cables, pipes in the walls, etc.

D) If this happens, you would then have the option to rent out two separate apartments. I assume it would not be so easy to rent 200 sqm to just one person/family.

E) There are not that many changes now; on the ground floor, a partition wall would be built for a bedroom, and upstairs the partition between the children’s rooms would disappear, so there would be a living room with open kitchen. Theoretically, you could even keep the partition wall, but then the living room would be too small.
