Possibly because you’re chopping up the exterior view so completely. Just a tip: when you look at your house in reality, you very rarely focus only on the front view. You look at several sides at once. No matter how perfectly symmetrical the front may be, if the adjacent side looks like a Hundertwasser copy, it looks jumbled together.
I don’t care. I can’t achieve symmetry on all sides. The front and garden sides are important to us, yes, on the west and east I looked more at functionality and how to arrange the furniture. The neighbors on the right and left are so close. From afar, you can’t really see the sides properly. For example, if I can’t furnish the kids’ rooms, symmetry stops for me.
But true. Floor plans in catalogs are all about symmetry.
However, I think the guest WC is great now because it has the window to the side and not facing the street. Do you think it looks jumbled together now?
There’s often the option with a window above the toilet bowl. I could do that too if I position the toilet bowl on the wall where the sink is. Would that look better?
I arranged it as drawn because I thought that way there’s more space on the bowl and a side window might be nicer.
A WC window on the north side would break the symmetry of the front for me. Also, from a privacy perspective, the current window on the west side is nicer.
How would you solve it? You’re not really so pro-symmetry, are you?
