Sorry, but I get the feeling that criticism, valuable experiences, or even other ideas are generally not seen as an opportunity, but rather as an attack. Time and again we are told that in the end, of course, you were right about all of it, no matter how strange, concerning the travels (what would the infant have said about malaria or the like?), the stairs, or elsewhere... YOUR idea was always the right one and you showed it to all the "screamers"... well then. In your environment, people apparently "scream" at you more often, as you write... I would urgently change something about your environment or else... oops... no. Your result from the thread and the sincere effort of some participants here is now this...
I think, just as I reconsidered it right at the beginning in the first post, it makes the most sense.
...-how could it have been otherwise :D
the draftsman truly did his job well.
...and even with two of them. And yes, we all know here that everyone should and may build as they want, absolutely even!
if you want to do it "properly," you definitely need other prerequisites
Nope, just freedom in the mind and some willingness to learn... Countless before you have implemented such things sensibly and wonderfully, sometimes with fewer possibilities—or do you really think your living situation is unique? Architects/interior architects are exactly for that, and they could also implement it well if you were ever allowed to be "right" for a moment or if the experiences of others could be seriously and openly considered. But "being right" is more of a hindrance in that.
What do you say to this? Who has other ideas?
THAT is exactly what you obviously DO NOT want to know; you are probably more looking for pats on the back! But your published building plan doesn’t fit this... although I forgot...

Sorry.
However, you always have to keep in mind that the house must suit the resident and no one else.
That is even well-known here; precisely for that reason, one fills out the questionnaire properly and thoroughly at the beginning, which others have put a lot of effort into here, so that the surveyed members can better imagine the respective situation. Inflating or shrinking the living room furniture later on to actual measurements and only last informing that the building permit has long been available... uff. Why then the initial question:
What do you say to this? Who has other ideas?
The apparent reason for the sparse number of reactions to your thread may also be that people like to receive proper preliminary information from the OP if they are supposed to spend their time on it. Sloppy and thus incorrect furniture dimensions, "concealment" of the
already available building permit, etc., coupled with partly dismissive phrasing, apparently take away people's desire to engage more closely and help... although...

How can you do that? many shout.
Screaming again...? I'll be honest; I find your thread exhausting and really useless. It is full of self-praise and also arrogance despite a series of openly revealed weaknesses in the thought process; people who made a real effort for you and from whose knowledge/experience one could actually learn something are rather brushed off... if one wanted to. For a young person and an absolute building novice, that's remarkable... From the start, I felt uneasy about your phrasing and also the already apparent handling of the topic of the fortunately still living "grandma," whose property this apparently was lifelong. Since we ourselves had even a foreign grandma in the house until she sadly died at 102, and later also our own parents in the house, your mindset and your overbold wording upset me when I imagine the whole thing as you quite openly and clearly describe it. During her lifetime, grandma’s house is already mentally and officially certified destined for demolition, the excavators are already waiting impatiently, and one heroically takes on the risk of grandma living longer. Not even a few quotation marks around the word "risk" can be spared from the hectic building planning stress... well, life is harsh, grandma...
We accept the risk that grandma will live another five years
Maybe that’s also where the people who “scream” in your environment come from, whose ability for empathy does not end at the wallet. It practically shakes me when I read what you (as a son-in-law) naturally express while grandma is still there. Just imagine having grandchildren and their partners living in your own 100-year-old house, who have been calmly planning your death for years and even heroically take the "dangers and risks" upon themselves that you will break the age record.
While grandma is still alive, we can still save properly, which is also a considerable advantage.
Not THAT grandma lives is the advantage, but "even though" she lives, namely that the money increases in this difficult time... oh dear.
We accept the risk that grandma will live another five years because the probability appears extremely low to us.
...what luck for your "risk"... That’s also how the house is planned and that is how it will be. EVERYONE gets the house and also the living room they deserve... Therefore... happy house building :D Maybe I am alone with this opinion, but a forum lives from the diversity of opinions, and I don't want any descendants to have an approved building plan for demolition and the construction of a possible "alien" during my lifetime and
also publicly babble about the "risk" of my long life. But as the OP points out, you can extend the permit... there just was no time to wait, grandma... time is pressing... Such an answer should not bother you since apparently your own words do not bother you; we shall see...
