Honestly? I stood in my living room and desperately searched for space for the kitchen, utility room, and hallway, the base plate seemed so tiny to me.

Yes. It was a single "huge" area. Far too abstract to already imagine specific rooms (with their surrounding) walls there.

For us, it was more like this! Excavation for the basement, wow that's huge, then the floor slab was poured and I thought wow that looks small. Basement was built okay small but manageable. House was delivered hmm looks smaller than expected. While cleaning I think it could have been smaller. When we visit others, I think wow our house is big.

Four houses were built almost simultaneously here. I already considered our 120m² foundation slab to be relatively large, but it was also quite long and L-shaped. The other houses were just rectangles, especially for a timber frame house the slab was only about 60m² - it looked like the foundation for a garden shed.

Our foundation slab was mistaken for the garage. It looked so small.

I also thought the foundation slab was small, but once the walls were up, it fit.

Okay, my base plate is only 8.20m x 10m, and now that the house is built, the 131sqm living space on 2 full floors fits perfectly. But when there was only the plate, I really doubted for a few days

Is it just like this with us, or are civil engineering companies generally annoyingly unreliable? The message was he would come Saturday or Monday with the excavator, which is still on the property, to do a little preparation for the deliveries from the masons. Today the excavator is gone and nothing has happened. Drives you up the wall.

Well, in the meantime another picture of our steel beams. It looks somewhat more impressive live than the dashed lines and notes in the execution drawings
