Procedure for constructing a new single-family house on an existing plot

The parking spaces will be difficult in my opinion. It's hard to drive down a staircase. Here, I could rather imagine something like a "basement" or a storage or bike shed underneath.

The problem is that you then have to get the bike upstairs. A ramp would be very steep, you actually need stairs and you have drawn them in. We are talking about >2m over 7-8m length, so 25%. A ramp next to the stairs can work if you only use the bike for a ride every third Sunday. For daily use, the bike belongs upstairs. I see lawnmowers, winter/summer tires and the like, possibly space for a workbench. If a wood stove is planned, that would also be a good storage place.

In my opinion, the border garage is way too high in your design. I would place the garage as low as possible and then have a shed roof sloping away from the border.

That was not a design based on development plans, practicality, or anything else, but just a sketch to illustrate the height relationships and to counter the basement mantra. The OP has their own architect, whose design we are all quite curious about. :)

I can’t understand this compulsive slope-basement combination at all. On the contrary, especially on a slope I build a basement 99% of the time not to keep access to the garden via the terrace possible.

My basement rule doesn’t specifically advocate for a utility basement, and a living basement "at least doesn’t taste like a basement". Nothing to be afraid of (to quote the hero of the meerkats).

Good idea – and otherwise I also see parallels with this peaceful slope location to the plot of – there I had, by the way, advocated for living with a distant view and sleeping by the garden exit.

I forgot to add yesterday that the orientation of the house axis parallel to the contour lines instead of the street would probably lead to a mitigation of the height problem by about 50 to 60 cm.

I don’t understand that now, but maybe it’s more about terminology? I believe that generally with slopes, a basement in the sense of “an entire floor completely underground” is not meant, but rather that on one side a floor is more or less buried into the slope (=> on that side it is a basement), while on the other side the same floor has a ground-level exit. That means possibly (if the slope roughly fits, possibly with a few steps) you have the entrance on the street side at the “ground floor” and on the garden side at the “basement” (or vice versa depending on the slope). Whether this still counts as a basement as a special floor in administrative terms or simply as a full floor depends, among other things, on how deep you have to dig on average...
