Single-family house (2 floors + residential basement + developed attic) approximately 200 sqm - changes

On the one hand, your window placements don't work because you need beams on the ground floor. They have to rest somewhere on the outer wall. But you have windows everywhere there...

On the other hand, take a look here: this is arranged much more sensibly since you don't create a bottleneck in the house or an installation that could be obstructive in the middle.

Thank you very much! I rebuilt your draft at my place. See attachment.
Has your described problem been resolved for all three drafts? I have no idea about statics, but the architect planned it like this initially?!

Proposal for the hallway from #108 revised again with regard to the dimensions:



If you have to, swap the WC and the 50 cm cabinet. I would find it better that way. But nobody can get around your self-imposed (curiosity) rules anyway.

For the new shoe obsession, one could possibly also put a windbreak/vestibule including a shoe cabinet as a subordinate component in front of the entrance. For that, you need the exact rules for "subordinate component" in your community.

Thank you very much! I have now also incorporated it again on my side. See attachment. As already mentioned, we absolutely want to prevent walking through the "shoe dirt area" with dirty shoes (except for my wife, we all walk barefoot). I believe this wish is not so curious but is also applied in other plans. We really won't let ourselves be dissuaded from that. We've also thought about a covered access. But I would prefer to keep that rather optional as a "roof only" in my mind and not want to concern myself with earthworks and foundations on that topic. It seems to work without it anyway.

There are now three possible drafts. One from the architect, one from ypg, and one from kaho674. Both new ones are much more straightforward but have the disadvantage that the wardrobe must be entered on the way to the WC. I think that's no problem because in both there is the possibility to park the dirty shoes beforehand. In short: I like both better than the previous one (which, by the way, was only developed that way because we formulated as a binding wish that the WC should not be accessed via the wardrobe).

I think I pushed both WCs "marginally" small. With ypg, the urinal fits better. The "extra wardrobe" with kaho674 can be incredibly useful but also can become very messy very quickly. I think I currently prefer ypg. There, the entrance door just doesn't quite line up under the window above (neither flush left nor right – this also applies to the one from kaho, where even more can be shifted).

All three variants could be open to the hallway or well separated by a wall and sliding door.

Here now are 3 bedroom variants that should contribute to relaxation. In one variant, 2 narrow doors had to be installed, and in the other, 1 narrow door, which I do not find appealing. Whether these variants are structurally feasible, I do not know.

Oh, right: The goal was to be able to put a shelf or cabinet on the wall behind the door in the children's room if needed. But I don't think that has a very high priority either.

Application has been submitted to the bank. The offer has been re-evaluated with a roof over 2 full floors. The building application is currently being prepared and is to be submitted once the approvals from the bank are in. So we are now slowly moving into detailed planning. We have not made much progress with the bedroom yet. Besides the architect’s draft, he only considers the attached one realistic. I have now come up with a rather special one (idee02). Are there any opinions and assessments on this? The one wardrobe with 270cm is sufficient for us. The walking areas are adequate, I think. The bed could also be wider. And the best part: The wife gets her mirror with light from 2 sides.

And a planning idea for the bathroom
The sink could of course also be on the far left. Whether the shelf behind the door is still needed is also unclear.
The shelf next to the toilet is probably more of a wall shelf for magazines and toilet paper.

We haven't made much progress with the bedroom yet.

The matter might be simplified if you swap the bedroom and the study. That would also be more sensible if the study becomes child 2's room before the attic is converted, since then both children's rooms would be in the southwest with light and sunshine.

And a planning idea for the bathroom The sink could, of course, also be all the way on the left. Whether the shelf behind the door is still needed is also unclear. The shelf next to the toilet is probably more of a wall shelf for magazines and toilet paper.

I would rather ask how you want to use the shelf or cabinet behind the tub and whether you'll bang your knees on the tub when sitting on the throne or on the way there. Also, the shower with its walls is so dominant that the whole room is divided again into a maze garden, as you also plan at the entrance (where the current status is, however, unclear).
