On which of these floor plans can we continue to build?

What I can't quite understand are the partly, in my view, inappropriate comments about the ugliness of the house from the outside:

Although I did not mean anything like that, it is probably the case here that the style is prescribed, right? Given the somewhat tight budget, the exterior view is rather plain. But I find that less bad. There are cubes where almost nothing is added and I like those better than some pompous star architect designs.

In light of the partly biting comments, I seriously wonder whether I will ever post our planned floor plan and also the house views at all.

That would of course be very unfortunate!

Apparently, it is (at least for the time being) not possible to expect objective comments (in terms of advantages and disadvantages;

Given the comments from the girls here, I find that a bit exaggerated again. Or does our opinion not count? That would really be a shame!

@ypp: Somehow I have the feeling that we already know each other .

These thoughts are almost criminal

My approach here was to look at the floor plan neutrally and not to fill it directly with furniture.

Neutral is no longer possible given all your explanations...

Here you are supposed to fill out the well-thought-out questionnaire and write what you like and what you don’t like about the floor plan.

I thought it was limited to 130 characters

And what would you recommend to us?

Personally, I would replace the 9-meter garage with a wider carport including a storage room... but you know that

As I see it (only now), the garage on your side is mandatory on the west side and only in the designated area - it doesn’t look like 9m anyway. Or is there more information about this?

Examples in the promotional brochure of the plots are not mandatory, they are only meant as suggestions. The development plan is always decisive!

I don’t find the house ugly. Unfortunately, the views posted here were not even seen in the other forum, so I always omitted that it is not supposed to be an "ugly" city villa but a modern "box"
I like modern boxes and will modernize some example floor plans this weekend when I have time

What I can't quite understand are the partly, in my view, inappropriate comments about the ugliness of the house from the outside: It's all a matter of taste - and as I mentioned in another thread, at least NO ONE dictates to ME from outside what I should like - and I apply the same principle with my comments on other projects. In this respect, some people here could effectively hold back a bit (humility is a virtue, not a burden) - because it simply achieves nothing and doesn't help the OP at all. In light of the sometimes biting comments, I seriously wonder whether I will ever post our planned floor plan and the house elevations. Apparently, it is (at least at the moment) not possible to expect factual comments (in terms of pros and cons; alternative possibilities, etc.). I interpret it this way: if someone "gets upset" about the exterior appearance, the floor plan must be great.....

Wonderful. All I can say is nail and head. Best regards Ippebson

Examples in the property brochure are not binding, they are only meant to serve as suggestions. The decisive factor is always the development plan!

UPS, I thought that was part of the development plan. Is there an official one somewhere?

I will try in a "sweep" without a jungle of quotes to address some contributions / aspects (partly also from the inside of the thread in the green forum).

By the way, the "furnishing" of the site plan with little house symbols, terraces, and driveways does not represent the building envelope, the OP would be freer there. Proposals with nicer floor plans were made to him and would fit into the building envelope, and it should not be due to finances either, but he fears that a nicer house floor plan would lead to a less nice garden floor plan.

Besides the fixation on the house symbol outline – the development plan does not specify an aspect ratio, but the OP mentally clings to this approximate square – there is also a magical size in the room, namely that the employer envisions a home office of about 8 sqm.

Furthermore, there should be a garage. In reality, I consider it more likely that it will be needed as a storage room; but it is supposed to be used for a car, whereas second owners do not appreciate whether it was a garage car. The OP insists that it should be a garage for the car, even if a carport would suffice for the car. But a carport would probably solve a window problem and remove an excuse for the eternity of the search for a solution.

I have already admired the great patience of the BT – as we have clarified in the green forum that this is really a BT and not a general contractor – so much that the OP was annoyed about it.

Personally, I would have told him long ago, "I will now count to three hundred; if you haven’t made a decision by then, you will get a Flair 113 in the flat roof edition."

Ever heard of "further development" or "interpretation/variation of Bauhaus style"?

No, because it is not called that. One could see such further developments with Richard Meier, Ernst Neufert, Mario Botta, Gae Aulenti, Gustav Peichl, or father and son Olgiati. But the example of this BT is not a further development: a kindly put "reduction" from "Bauhaus" to "shoebox" – hardly any misunderstanding is more widespread in architecture than that a flat roof is merely an omitted pitched roof – is not a further development, but a crippling of Bauhaus. Or, as was read here yesterday in another thread: "Bauhaus style."

Wonderful. I only say nail and head.

Best regards

That's right, thank you for these words .

I will never understand why someone goes out of their way to write a comment just to say that a fellow human’s future dream home is "ugly." Cynically starting with "...it’s a matter of taste, but." Nothing but!!! It’s a matter of taste. And if nothing comes besides the phrase about advantages or disadvantages of the floor plan, window positions, or plot placement, etc., I find that pathetic. What’s so hard about not typing such hurtful—but unhelpful—sentences?

This forum can often be very helpful, thanks to positive and negative criticism. But these repeatedly occurring stupid remarks or the weird dick-measuring contests over on the finance topics are just a shame and unnecessary.
