If you have to do without, which details/extensions
- can you do without: Smart home, 3 bathrooms, basement, sauna, balconies, dormers, etc.
- cannot do without: View towards south / southeast

Why has the design become the way it is now?
After countless drafts, we have now really fallen in love with this rough concept.
A mix from many examples from different magazines...
What makes it particularly good or bad in your eyes?
The plot offers a great view to the south.
So far, the unknown component is the development of the neighbors. Here we would like to plan so that we "don’t care" how they build without having to restrict ourselves much.

What is the most important/fundamental question about the floor plan summarized in 130 characters?
Of course, we would like to receive basic suggestions about the floor plan.
Too small, too big, senselessly planned...

We have already tried to create simple structures. We don’t need any special frills.
Main living room will be the living area.

Do you think the children’s room sizes are sufficient? How is the lighting there, we just roughly indicated the windows. Should/must skylights still be integrated here?
Before we draw all the furniture, we would like to know in advance if the basic planning could fit.
We placed the little house (still with rotated ridge) on the plot.

We are already looking forward to a lively discussion and are naturally open to everything and everyone

Best regards
Matthias

PS: Just noticed that I still forgot the window in the dressing room; will of course be added later

In principle, I think the basic idea is good, but I would always try to include your (desired) furniture in the drawing. The best floor plan is useless if the TV doesn't have a logical place to go afterwards or the dream kitchen doesn't work that way. What I wouldn't like right away: I don't see a wardrobe, or a place to come in, take off shoes, and put down a hat.

Hello Saralina, thanks for the tip, I will note it and try to incorporate it.
I will try to add furniture in the second part as soon as major planning problems are eliminated.

thank you

I would also try drawing in some furniture... Examples:
- The living area is nicely open. But can you place a sofa so that a TV is at an optimal distance?
- The master bedroom is sufficient in itself. Just under 3m is not very deep though. If you want a dresser or something similar, it will be difficult.
- The bathroom can be problematic depending on your wishes. Do you want a bathtub? A whirlpool? A 1.8 x 1.2m shower? A double washbasin?
You can best see your wishes based on drawn-in furniture. Asking for everything will be difficult, I think...

Hello Drasleona, okay I will draw our furniture that we would take over 1:1... Surely you are right and I will recognize many points immediately. I have placed the entrance door in the hallway in the center and moved the door to the guest area downwards, now I have created an area of 1.5x0.8m on the left and right...

I have centered the entrance door in the hallway and moved the door to the guest area downwards, now I have created a 1.5x0.8m space on both the left and right sides...

The furniture will still bring you some aha moments, it was no different for us

The wardrobe is already better this way, but of course you also take away all the daylight.
You have to say whether the space would be enough for you and two children, who have all their shoes and jackets and scarves and hats!
