I have no suggestions for a plan that has no dimensions nor apparently involves a castle in the air here. Strangely enough, I have to join your experience with the BUs on this. Namely:

You cannot plan elaborate statics, building type, or envelope if the budget is limited. Any bay window, oriel, or slanted wall costs money. A lot of money. If two roof terraces are roughly estimated at about 30-40,000€ including complex roof structure, energy saving regulations, sealing, etc., then you should know in advance whether that would be feasible.

But that is important for the staircase location as well as door placement.



NO!
YOU should accept that a design of a single-family house is not just a drawn 2-D sketch of one floor on a sheet of paper.
Exterior walls have to carry load, the building envelope as well as the facade shape the view. Basically, the staircase is first set as an element and it must function.



Habits will change over time.

The division of the rooms except the parents’ area as mentioned is sensible, but a completely different layout would also be feasible.

There is a lack of storage space. Cloakroom. I do not see daily work or daily use here.

The furniture has a realistic size. These are exactly the pieces of furniture we currently have and will take with us.
The dining table is drawn at 2.30m x 1.30m with chairs. Is that supposed to be too small a table?
Why is the dining room too dark? The entire southwest front is glazed.

Where would you place the wardrobe instead?

The staircase measures 2.10 x 2.80. Too small?

Sleeping upstairs is not an option for us. I already described that in the EP...

1.85m width in the dressing room with an open closet system (46cm depth) is too small?

Do you have a concrete idea about this? Aside from my suggestion in #13...

Thanks and best regards

Wardrobes are 60/65 deep... they don't stand flush against the wall.
With a wall system there are 50cm boards plus rods. And you want to walk between them and have an overview of the stuff. Not stand in a narrow archive corridor.
From close up you can’t see anything.
Often it helps to build a Sims house. They already show you where it gets tight
By the way, this design reminds me a bit of "then I'll just add a room here and here and here — rectangles are overrated anyway and I'll just ignore what's up there on the upper floor" oops:

:

Why no measurements? Both floors are precisely dimensioned in the EP.

Whether a roof terrace is placed on the two cubes or, for cost reasons, a hipped roof, has no influence on the actual floor plan on the upper floor, right?
As mentioned, the wish is for full floor height on the upper floor, then the staircase also works. But since we are not allowed to build two full floors, the upper floor MUST definitely be set back and smaller than the ground floor.

Why don’t you see a day's work? What do you mean by that, can you explain it in more detail?

I was just about to write dressing room as well.

Distance from couch to TV very large.

Maneuvering into the garage would be too stressful for me. Where will the entrance platform go?
