Plot with cut-in power station / L-shape - idea search

I am amazed by two things: first, the long planning duration and second, that I apparently hadn’t asked yet in this thread what material is being used here. On the one hand, I see exterior walls in classic solid construction caliber 365, but on the other hand, then unusual interior wall thicknesses and dimensions that break the pattern.

When planning the floor plan, I get the impression of being trapped, in love with the visualization of a design that hasn’t succeeded yet, but whose “spirit” is somehow supposed to be preserved, and for this purpose a space allocation Tetris is being played. This is a typical phenomenon in draughtsman-based planning. Presumably, the supposedly higher fee investment in a freelance architect would have already paid off twice by avoiding the interim construction cost increases.

I recommend a relaunch and fresh start with professional planning methodology. A patchpatchpatch as the exact opposite of clean code leads to a dramatically increased likelihood of construction botch due to complex connection details at every corner. And in the further distillation of the design on the wrong path and with rising desperation pressure, the wine is more likely to turn into vinegar than the power of prayers breaking the Gordian knot.

Hi,
Am I right in understanding that you have been working on the house for 2.5 years? Guys, it's a house and not an aircraft carrier....
I see clear signs of getting bogged down...
Best regards,
Andreas

Almost a six-figure amount? Given the house size and price increases of 20-30% in the last 2 or 3 years, you can definitely assume a six-figure sum...

Hello ant11! Such almost philosophical sentences. Mega. Yes, you are a bit right there – at least you recognized my state of mind :) So it will be a timber frame house, with wood fiber insulation. [...] The house builder is a local medium-sized provider and is fine. [...] I can agree with the thing about the professional architect, which is not really an issue because of costs or anything, but we simply had the local provider in mind. He does solid work, but I still lack a bit of pizzazz or that thing where I say yes, cool. The room Tetris doesn’t get any better because of that ;) I am therefore open to all impulses

To get the house as far north as possible and also have the garage driveway from the north, the following suggestion.



Now one could omit the garage or the house.

I quite liked the bay window on the ground floor like your first draft.
