Idea generation for a single-family house on a slope. Tips welcome

By the way, you can read your construction site

You live quite close

Can you dimension the plans

Can you please change the PDF files to JPG and fill out the questionnaire.



At first glance

Attic
Children's room does not work. 20 sqm sounds like a lot, but with the knee wall and the roof pitch there is hardly any standing height. Please draw the 2-meter line.
Bathroom as well.
Hallway extremely large for nothing

Ground floor
A lot of hallway even though it is designated for reading and working. Why no separate office?
If a reading corner, then also space for shelves
Sleeping, dressing, bathroom too small in relation to the floor area

Basement generous
Why have a bunker where you get claustrophobic

Very large house, almost bulky, very few rooms and they are still very small. Without loss of quality it can be much smaller. Definitely check the 2-meter line in the attic. It should be similar to ours and the rooms don’t work like this

I will do the questionnaire and the JPEGs when I am at home.

Attic children's room:
I will draw in the 2-meter line

Ground floor:
No office room because we wanted to avoid the formation of a "corridor" if there were only rooms on the left side.
I have now reduced the stairwell space so that the other rooms become bigger.

Basement: Bunker is maybe the wrong word, pellet storage is the right one...

Do you have any suggestions for the stairs, because I think I am really wasting space because of them.

Thank you for your answers

The house is big enough for a straight staircase.

You don’t have to let the hallway run from one side of the house to the other to make it look bright and spacious.
One large window on one side is enough, rooms arranged differently and it doesn’t feel narrow.
You can easily put the two children's rooms on the ground floor and the reading and office corner in the basement.

The attic is then storage space.

We have a special area for floor plan discussions. It has also been linked to you by , including a questionnaire.

And please insert the PDFs as JPGs – tablet and mobile users cannot or can only awkwardly open the files. I was just able to open them once, but unfortunately not anymore now.

From memory: good idea to put the middle floor in and the living and utility rooms below. But overall, it’s somewhat unzoned. You have to go through a hall to bring away the supplies. Hopefully, the gentleman doesn’t get stuck in front of the TV [emoji6].
The WC in the basement is also somewhat oversized, just like the hall.
The living hallway spaces are nice, but the bedrooms are pretty much like cells in relation.
The attic floor doesn’t work at all because of the roof pitch. There is roughly 8 sqm of standing area left as a room.
I also don’t find the exterior look very appealing.
You shouldn’t think in block cubes but arrange the floors staggered, shifted, or offset. Then, in the end, less space still results in generosity, roofed areas, and zoning for living, sleeping, and working.

I would definitely stop the discussion here, as we laypeople simply don’t have the knowledge and experience to make optimal use of a sloping plot. It’s like you want to improve the sauce of canned ravioli, although someone is there who can prepare the pasta dough and filling tastier, so the tomato sauce doesn’t need much seasoning at all.

If you have an architect’s design, we will gladly look at it and optimize it for you.

By the way: A house with an open and central staircase as well as a gallery is not suitable for splitting into two apartments.
The chimney is also in the wrong position; it should be near the ridge.
The laundry chute should also come out where the laundry is washed.

How much do you want to spend just on the house?

Our garden view

Honestly, in my eyes it looks like a 1950s house fell on top of a cube house and got stuck there by accident. I don't think the design is successful.
