Idea collection floor plan single-family house, open construction method

The "load-bearing" walls/posts are aligned vertically, so it can also work the other way around in this case.

That’s the problem: starting with the ground floor and avoiding static complications, the upper floor walls end up where the ground floor prefers them. Hence the upper floor as the master.

Sorry, I let the company I’m building with name the standard window sizes, I find that more effective.

Structural shell contractors have no say in that, says my experience as a former window manufacturer.

There are no standard window sizes anymore, since window manufacturers no longer keep large stocks but produce only according to measurements.

That is not correct. It is true they are made to measure. Nevertheless, there are (especially in the plastic sector) still stock sizes; and especially there are still sizes that are recommended with certain numbers of sashes.

nach Maßangaben produzieren.

Beware of a common beginner’s mistake: ordering according to plan dimensions. Always measure the reality first!

And I am also sure about the dimensions that they are finished sizes since it is done as EL and these are not the first walls we are building.

Finished sizes cannot be planned on-site due to tolerances resulting from possible manufacturing accuracy. Having a house built by precision mechanics is unaffordable.

I already met with an architect for an introduction, and actually, we are both firmly convinced not to see another one.

Even in your city, there won’t be only losers in the draw.

Child1: The bedroom section gets the bright south, the living section gets the dark corridor?

You can still place the flowers between the exterior wall and the children's bathroom without the corner = after all, no fillers for dead corners are planned.

Sorry, I currently do not have continuous internet access and could only see or guess half of the uploaded drawings.

All three offer the floor plan shown above. None of these companies raised any criticism regarding the floor plan, nor did various friends/acquaintances/

That does not surprise me with the BUs and the friends. Laypeople do not notice that the load-bearing wall becomes the third gable at the top in the shed roof. At first, I thought that the drawn line showed the offset roof and thus the load-bearing wall, but after looking at the position of the chimney in the exterior view, I realize: the load-bearing wall that extends upwards into the third gable has not been considered at all. Also, on the upper floor, the "middle wall" extends to the top, so there would have to be walls there as well. However, your middle wall is estimated about one meter away from the third gable. That does not work like that. Where do the windows actually go or where should they lead? Into which rooms? Exactly where the third gable is, there must be walls on the upper floor, anything else is not possible or would be completely pointless.

But as already written, most of it is a matter of taste

No, with small niches that cannot even be used or an elaborate extension just so the children's bathroom can get a door, it is not a matter of taste but planning, in this case poor planning. Optimized room design follows fixed rules. These can be consulted or studied accordingly.

This is not our first build, so I presume I am not completely naive.

But that does not make you a professional nor does it replace one. The constant comparison with the current state rather reveals operational blindness. Sorry to say that. Generosity differs from size, and corners and niches are the opposite.

And somehow I have the feeling here as well to see a communication problem.

I will then also just read silently.

Child1: The bedroom part gets the bright south, the living part gets the dark corridor?

It gets the skylight (?)

You can still place the flowers between the outer wall and the children's bathroom without the corner = you don't plan fillers for dead corners.

In this case, it would probably be more of a dead corner for the filler

Your central wall is estimated to be about a meter away from the third gable.

That is an unfortunate solution. By the third gable, I assume you mean the end of the offset ridge (by the way with a window strip facing north).

That is an unfortunate solution. By the third gable, I assume you mean the front of the offset ridge (by the way with a strip of windows facing north).

That is not an unfortunate solution, it is something not considered by a layperson - like so many other things!

that is not considered by a layperson – like so many things!

That is probably true, but ...

That is not an unhappy solution,

... no big deal: the "set level" in the broken ridge is not so difficult by itself that a load-bearing wall would absolutely have to be underneath. Conveniently, from the perspective of the ground floor it would still be there – as for the upper floor, I won’t say anything, in that regard the answer to the Krüger question "is this art or can it be thrown away" is probably clear.
