Thank you , as someone who currently lives in a rental apartment, it is actually helpful to hear your explanations – much of it is not even on the event horizon yet, and one probably underestimates the new possibilities one will use once they become available.
What is still unclear to me is the following statement:
Your variants had no access to the garden at all. It was also not usable.
What is meant by this, or where is the qualitative difference to your suggestion? A direct door to the back would be great, but luxury if you can go via the terrace (which might then be used for gardening anyway). I was not thinking of a heavily usable garden in the south, but really consistently behind the house (as drawn – possibly even moving the house forward in the building area for an even larger contiguous garden in the north). Ideally without terracing the slope too much, but rather creating different raised-bed-like areas... but that is all still very open. A classic, flat lawn would not be desired now, rather "natural" and productive – I would then rather put a deckchair to relax than in a decorative garden.
Sure, you don’t want to waste the area in the south entirely, but parking spaces, street, and low height made it unappealing to plant the utility garden there..
