Unfortunately, you don’t understand that. It depends on the size of the living area on one floor. If you have a two-story house, it is not as large on the ground floor or upper floor as a bungalow, and of course every room has at least one exterior wall. Why don’t you see a square bungalow with outer dimensions of e.g. 18m x 18m?
If someone doesn’t understand, you can explain it to them, but if he or she doesn’t want to understand, it’s best to save the explanation. I didn’t mean that to sound stupid. [emoji6]

Clients in the home office, not now but maybe later. I actually prefer a room, regardless of whether it is called a home office or a child's room, next to the main entrance. I have already requested from the draftsman of the builder a drawing with the items and furniture we have or wish for. That way, it is easier to see whether there is enough space for us and the wheelchair.

Zizzi, you want to square the circle.

Privacy for you, but because of possibly having clients in the study, the second child's room should either be very small (according to your floor plan the study) and on top of everything also face the main terrace or it should be located in the entrance area and in no case has the privacy you claim for yourself.

If it really comes to the point that you receive clients in the study, then the current second child's room in my planning is still acceptable. Alternatively, it should be possible to build the stairs to the attic and have a nice master bedroom there. Then you can accommodate a proper office where the client also has space in the master bedroom I envisioned.

Basically, you are right, but 18x18 m is not really what was offered to you as an alternative to your angled bungalow.


The alternative is just over 15 x just over 10 m and as you can see, every room has sufficiently large and many windows. Child 1 and 2 could also have floor-to-ceiling windows, as there would still be about 5 m of property to the south at the bottom of the plan. Even a small shared terrace for the two rooms would still be possible.

And played around a bit more. I think that for the property and for the desire to also offer the wheelchair user a comfortable entry and exit in the carport, the rectangular variant is still the best.

This also creates some distance to the neighbor in the south, southeast.

Now with a small corner so that a cozy covered seating area can be accommodated.

Parents' bedroom placed in the south, southeast, child 2 / office by the entrance door. If child 2 really arrives, I would build the space-saving staircase upstairs, temporarily accommodate the office there, have the child initially in child 2 / office, and from about primary school age then consider moving the office back downstairs and child 2 to the attic. Alternatively, the parents upstairs and child 2 in the current parents' bedroom.

In the hallway in front of the bathroom, a closet niche for towels, bed linen, etc. What all 2 to 3 private rooms need.

Hello everyone,

Kerstin, I already wrote something for your floor plan a long time ago, supposedly I did not click on "Create reply" :-( This time I like your floor plan much better. Of course, there are things missing, e.g. child 2 or study room or wheelchair parking space (150x180) and relatively small utility room and covered terrace. That doesn’t mean the floor plan I got from BU is without problems. Therefore, I am trying, and of course with the help of the participants, to recognize and improve mistakes and possibilities for improvement. Honestly, I am more interested in the W-bungalow and hipped roof, so I would like to stick with the W-bungalows and hipped roof.

In the meantime, I have received a new floor plan from BU (attached). There are a few improvements and changes, but it is still improvable. Note: the living area is now 2.5m² larger and the living room a bit longer. BU made the terrace 1.5 m wide in order to keep the offered price the same, but I later made it 2 m wide again. (for an extra charge)

I have already changed a few things by hand and photographed them. 1.5 m wide cloakroom, closet niche for bathroom, door shift from utility room to place a shelf there.

What I do not like here:

Too little corridor width between wardrobe and bed in the parents’ bedroom.

Can the door of the parents’ bedroom and child 2 be set differently, so the corridor becomes a bit shorter but the wardrobe does not get smaller? Or does it make sense to extend the corridor to the outer wall to create a storage space for additional aids there? (but this way you lose 2 closet niches in the parents and child 2 rooms)

And regarding window height: here all windows are drawn either 2.135 m (ground level) or 1.26 m high. I think the windows in parents, child 2 and study room can be 12.5 cm lower (more light), but WC and bathroom on the contrary somewhat higher (window height 1 m or 1.125 m), and the kitchen window can stay as it is because of base cabinets.

I would be very happy about your opinions.

Best regards

The floor plan is already better than the previous ones, but I can't warm up to the angled bungalow. You have exactly one south-facing window, but it is located under the terrace roof.
By the way, I count 142.58 sqm compared to 127.66 sqm in my last plan.

Besides the utility room, which by the way should offer the same footprint as the utility room in the angled bungalow (which loses space due to the additional door), there is also the storage room in my solution.
The wheelchair parking space is right next to the storage room in my solution .. it could be separated by a wall (that's how I had it in the first version without the angle).
The covered terrace seating area is also included in my solution with a connection to the west terrace.

2nd children's room ... there is the option to install a staircase and use the attic ... or to increase the floor area analogous to the angled bungalow.

And then take a look at how the driver is supposed to get out of the car in your carport. And it still doesn't make sense why the house needs these two entrances.
