modern Bauhaus, lots of glass, 170 sqm ground floor/upper floor, currently in phase 3

whereas in a neighboring village of ours there is a new building with such spotted roof tiles, it’s supposed to be Mediterranean, but it just looks like an eyesore – that was the first time I missed guidelines...), the facade color, the roof pitch and and and.
Boooooooriiiiiiing!!!!

That’s a matter of taste. Everyone has a different one, maybe even the "standard fare". Exactly the eyesore factor is what you want, namely individuality without the influence of others. For the next person, your house is precisely the eyesore factor.
I understand what you want to say with that, but it’s also a judgment again.

Do you really think these came about according to a development plan? No, everyone just built whatever they felt like.

You’re mistaken there. Although it was probably called differently back then, people actually coordinated when building houses even in ancient times. Back then it was very stagnant – tried and tested forms were maintained and adopted. This runs through the entire culture through the Middle Ages, small and large cities up to today. There were always some rules, which didn’t necessarily have to be fixed in writing, but construction proceeded accordingly.
The striving for individualism, fashion, specialness and standing out only came later. The awareness of other options began with the possibility of travel; TV and internet, globalization do their part to make one desire something special.
I’d really like to know if anyone here who absolutely wants to build a Bauhaus edition has dealt with the style and its history. Has anyone even been in such a house and knows the rules that Bauhaus style unites?

Wait - did I miss something? Why is this suddenly about a bungalow and two kids? Wasn't this a different thread? I'm confused.

Looks like took the wrong thread ;) can happen, she's in the flow right now :D

Sorry, I mixed up two threads - forget the last paragraph, it is for the bungalow from the other thread! I'm a bit scatterbrained right now (in case anyone hasn't noticed) - so my approval for this floor plan maybe tomorrow.

whereas in a neighboring village near us there is a new building with such spotted roof tiles, supposedly Mediterranean style, but it just looks eye-cancer-inducing – that was the first time I missed guidelines...

In a neighboring town in BaWü, a homeowner had to reroof his house because he had placed light red-marble Mediterranean flair on the roof; he had been told that this was within the allowed range......

That's a matter of taste. Everyone has a different one, maybe even the "bland conformity." Exactly that eye cancer factor is what you want, namely individuality without influence from others. For the next person, your house is exactly the eye cancer factor.
I understand what you want to say with that, but it is again a judgment.

Right, I find them eye-cancer-inducing, but I’d rather endure something like that than bland conformity – and what else would one mock about? :p

You're wrong there. Although it was probably called differently back then, people already coordinated house building in antiquity. At that time, things were actually very stagnant – tried and true forms were retained and adopted. This runs through the entire culture into the Middle Ages, small and large towns up to today. There were always some kinds of rules, which didn’t necessarily have to be fixed in writing, but buildings were constructed accordingly right away.
The pursuit of individualism, fashion, uniqueness, and standing out came only later.

No, that was due to the wallet. I live near a town with an almost continuous medieval old town core. It’s obvious which house was built at which time. The oldest tower dates from the 14th century and clearly differs from the newer houses that often only came in during the Baroque:


Whoever could afford it made their house striking and stylish: for example, Dominikus Zimmermann, builder of the Wieskirche and resident and also sometimes mayor of this town, allowed himself a surely very extravagant little roof on his residence (unfortunately I can’t find a picture of that right now).
Two small house builders had to build side by side, although they probably didn’t get along very well – this was expressed in two opposing gables. Also pretty crazy and certainly not according to any specification:

(Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a better picture of these two houses quickly – the yellow and the blue one.)
If two semi-detached house builders did that today!

If one could, one showed off. Because the town became rich through the salt trade, one could afford a fancy town hall:

Stylistically it doesn’t fit perfectly in there now, but they could afford it, and if the master builder was also the mayor – very practical! Today that would be considered nepotism.

But overall, it creates a very picturesque picture.

The parish church was begun in the Romanesque period (first mentioned in 1219), later expanded as a three-aisled Romanesque church, completed in the 15th century and later, they weren’t fussy at all, baroque-ized! Which zoning plan would have covered that, I wonder?

I do not want to argue here about written history concerning antiquity, since we are both right. I am referring more to the scale as well as the style. That later renovations are made in building gaps, yes. One does not reinvent the wheel; in the past, apartment buildings (and others too) were built differently just because of the toilet installation compared to today. But practically, one aligned the house with the neighbor.
