Opinions on the house floor plan wanted

The kitchen is not well planned like this. There are three poorly usable corners and the path from the sink to the stove is way too long! How do you want to pour out hot water, for example? Walk with the hot pot across the kitchen? I would not do the kitchen planning only when the floor plan is fixed, but when everything is still changeable. Why don’t you let an architect start the planning over again? I think it could be done better.

Best regards

and the distance from the sink to the stove is way too far! How do you want to, for example, pour off hot water? Walk with the hot pot across the kitchen?

Here too, I recommend dealing with the planning basis. The tried and tested guide from the working group modern kitchen (AMK) is now also available online.

I would simply prepare one cold and one warm meal as follows:

Take: a recipe and the floor plan in which all functional furniture and all storage locations for ingredients, cutlery, and dishes have been marked. These places are numbered.

Now transfer the recipe into a route plan:

1. go from A (pantry cabinet) to B (can opener) ...

An art in kitchen planning is to keep the housewife’s mileage allowance within limits.

The problem with photorealistic kitchen planners is that they easily achieve visually "looks-good" results.

Still, I find something to complain about even there:

The little cream jars on the ceiling (hybrids between built-in and surface-mounted spotlights) would not please me at all.

With a row ending in a floor-to-ceiling cabinet, I wonder why it is closed off with a cabinet carcass instead of just continuing the wall there.

Thank you for the notes. The kitchen planning was based on a cost estimate and how the space in the kitchen corner shapes up. Which cabinets and the placement of all components is certainly not optimal. I had a friend of mine put together a kitchen for the size so that we know how it looks.

I only now see that the floor plan images were cut off when rotated to the north, sorry. From the house edge we have 8.5 meters to the back (i.e., terrace) and 9 meters to the front from the end of the garage. Now I also just understood what was meant by parking crosswise .

Sorry, my mistake.

Hello everyone,

my girlfriend and I are about to start building a house and have been working on the floor plan for quite some time. We created the drawings ourselves without contacting an architect so far, and we are currently at draft 2.6. We have already obtained almost all the offers for this floor plan and would then, when we decide to build, go to the architect. .

Hello Martin,

just out of interest, why didn’t you involve a professional right away to have them create a plan (+ variants) based on your wishes?

I only just now noticed that the pictures of the floor plans were cut off when rotated towards the north, sorry. From the edge of the house we have 8.5 meters to the back (i.e. terrace) and at least 9 meters to the front from the end of the garage. Now I also just understood what was meant by parking sideways .

Oh, I see. *smile*

What do you think about showing the designs 1.0 and 2.0 here alongside this design 2.6 as well (preferably reduced in size, just for comparison)?

Hi,

the only thing I like are the big garages and the idea with the underground garage or lifting system/glass floor. It feels a bit like the "jack of all trades". But now another question, how do you want to finance this huge place. The garages could almost be worth a small single-family house
