Optimizing the floor plan of a 150 m² house - Tips

Do you find the bathroom better like this? Is it even possible with the toilet "in the middle"? Oh, the shower would now be 90x200 (dimension not correct). The interior room dimensions are correct despite the walls being too thin - I had used the individual interior measurements for help when creating it, so the thickness of the room walls does not matter.

That would be too many compromises for me that you already have in your preliminary planning. Many things were addressed. Please start over from scratch.

Which compromises do you mean? The pantry, OK. The sofa in the living room will be replaced at some point, I’m not going to redesign the living room now just because the old sofa doesn’t fit optimally? The bathroom upstairs was not a compromise for me – I just couldn’t estimate the proportions well. But it is probably true that the "downsizing" is not advisable.

The bathroom is definitely a compromise as planned. The placement of the shower under the slope is unfortunate, but it probably can't be done any other way. I would put the bathtub completely under the roof slope and place the toilet in front of the window. That way there is a bit more space in the room and the area in front of the window is not wasted.

I thought that at first too. But the bathtub completely under the sloping ceiling is hard to use. I would also like to use the edge of the bathtub to sit on sometimes, so I would prefer the bathtub to be further into the room and not completely under the sloping ceiling.

If you have a 1m knee wall, then the bathtub can be fully used. It is not higher than 70 cm. In the front area, you already have 2 m ceiling height, according to your drawing. When you get a bit older, getting in and out might be a bit more difficult, but then the question is how often you still take a bath. From my perspective, a bathtub is the only sanitary object that can be used without restriction under a sloping roof. Otherwise, it also serves as a shower.
