Single-family house for 4 people - Opinions

Why move the door? My suggestion only involved changing the hinge side. But if that is the only problem, it can be left as it is. Personally, I find it inconvenient because you would have to walk around the open door. However, I also don't like it when four people come in during bad weather and have to walk through half of the ground floor with dirty shoes before they reach the cloakroom. But that's a matter of taste.

Oh, then I misunderstood. But even then, you still have dirt at the front door and thus near the staircase. Even if maybe a bit less. Having to always go through the dirty area is indeed less pleasant. In the original floor plan, that was not the case. Because of the staircase, it is no longer possible now. I will try to change the floor plan a bit so that we can get the old staircase back. I

Then it will be a different house. It either has to be widened or enlarged. However, it would no longer be considered a plan if you just replace or widen it. Or there is a completely different design. Your starting point definitely had to be Gussek Haus. Basically, you can just forget Gussek Haus and start over: tell the architect the room program and go. These are all considerations you make before planning and tell the architect. And if you don't know what you actually want: just take a look here in the forum left and right, everything is there.

I thought about it again. If you want to clean the window, you must be able to open it. Otherwise, you have to clean it on the roof. Even if the dirt runs off well, it is better to install it so that it opens.

I would definitely make it openable as well. That’s how we have it too, although we’ve never cleaned it, but I think you can somehow reach it with a ladder.

No, that's not what I meant. I don't want to make a different house or significantly widen the floor plan. You could make the storage room smaller and take a curved staircase again. My wife said, just recess the bathroom, then you could keep the storage room that big.

There was such a nice link where you could see the staircase dimensions outside the forum. Do you know what I mean? Unfortunately, I can't find the link anymore.

It's not about Gussek Haus for me, I just liked the floor plan. That's why I won't start over. We don't have an architect but a planner. The planner then hands over the floor plan to the architect and will hopefully fix any possible defects.

Hope dies last
In my opinion, you don't need to worry about the double-wing window above the stairs: just put a longer spray lance on, then pressure wash it out of the double-wing window of the storage room
