how do you distribute the heat in the house?

We solved it very simply and radically and live in one room. In the "entry laundry room" there is an additional electric infrared heater in the ceiling. So far, we have had no heating in the bathroom because we haven’t found anything nice yet – the open sliding door has been sufficient until now. The guest toilet has no exterior wall, is unheated, and yet is always warm enough.
The heat distribution is of course not absolutely even, but it is comfortable everywhere. To quickly warm up without heating the stove, we hopefully will soon get the Tubes Eve as a mobile helper and a nice object.

The current houses are so tightly built that most stoves are oversized and overheat the room in no time.

That is obviously one of the disadvantages of this forum. You get so many hints about pretty and interesting objects that you cannot afford. I love Antonio's half-built-in bathtub. And especially his "clay ball washbasin," to put it somewhat disparagingly. Also great is the toilet paper holder with the small integrated spray.

Also nice. We have fallen in love with a fire pit from gartenmetall:

Yes, they are just around the corner from us, they have many great things, privacy screens, garden benches, path borders, etc. Unfortunately, everything is not exactly cheap. But I like the corten steel

the current houses are so well insulated that most stoves are oversized and overheat the room in a very short time.

You said it, most of them. It also depends on the quality of the stove builder. We have a 12 kW stove from Eggenfelden. Even after burning it three times in a row, we don't get more than 1 degree increase... I wouldn’t want to do without mine anymore; it’s on almost every evening and sometimes already on early in the morning on weekends.

Corten steel is also great against slugs in raised beds. They really don’t like it.
