New division ground floor/layout - ideas?

Dear forum members,

I need some new ideas regarding the layout of our ground floor and really hope that this is the perfect place for that. Unfortunately, I am currently experiencing a kind of "creative block" and just can’t come up with a satisfactory solution. None of our ideas really excite me...

We are completely renovating a house. The layout for the upper floor already exists (parents’ bedroom, parents’ bathroom, dressing room, children’s room, children’s bathroom).

Now the planning for the ground floor is due. It should include an open kitchen (ideally with a cooking island or something similar), a dining area (table for at least 6 people), a living area (large corner sofa with preferably 3.5 m on the long side), as well as a gas fireplace (ideally as a room divider or alternatively on the wall) and a guest WC. I would really like to make the hallway wider, as it is currently too narrow.

I have attached a floor plan for you. The green lines are the exterior walls; everything else that is also colored must "unfortunately" remain as is, including the windows. We cannot remove or add any windows here – except for the 7-meter wall at the very bottom. We can do whatever we want there, theoretically also a large window front across the entire width.

Maybe some of you have an idea how the space could be arranged. There are no limits to your ideas. I am really looking forward to your feedback.

Best regards
Sabrina

We are too, because so far we only know the ground floor exterior walls.

At least the upper floor should be shared with us as well. Ideally, you upload both the ground floor and the upper floor here, each as existing and as planned; or in the usual form black / gray / yellow / red so that one can differentiate existing, demolition, and additions in the combined plan.

Yep. Show me where the load-bearing walls are currently located. And what they are supposed to support up there. Also, it’s interesting where the pipes/drainage pipes are. And finally, you probably don’t want the sofa facing the street if it can be done differently. So please draw the property, the orientation (where is North), where the street is?

Your ideas are limitless.

P.S.: It will never span that freely between the exterior walls.
