Oh man, can you stop this bickering here? Do it via PM.
Bickering involving girls with under 100 posts is unfortunately only possible here as a broadcast
Obviously, they really want this unusual (and cost-increasing) building form.
The building ensemble itself is not unusual. Only two things are unusual: first, to authentically fake a conversion on a compromise-prone basis and rebuild it - that gives retro and vintage a whole new spin. And it is also not cost-increasing in terms of construction costs, but rather in terms of destroying the lending and resale value, because the market does not demand such a strange & crazy conversion fake – neither the classic real estate market nor the one for film sets. Second, unusual is the – let’s say politely – perfect emancipation of the floor plan shape from that of the plot
If I choose such an unusual shape, I make it the center of my house. For the "Wow" effect.
Here too, I can only agree with you and .
It was mentioned that the load-bearing walls are in the wrong direction. [...] The structural analysis has not yet been checked.
If you still don’t believe it, go to a local carpenter and just have him estimate the price for the roof structure.
The structural engineer doesn’t care, he just writes more steel and more under- and overbeams on the shopping list, then it fits, and in combination with the roof structure it matches the budget, even when using construction-beauty-adequate fittings. It is not the floor plan that makes the roof structure expensive, but the arrangement of the load-bearing walls. Placing them classically also crossing the rafters would probably make both the ceilings and the roof structure cheaper – even if the suggestion is followed to incorporate the kink into the spatial experience.
I summarize:
1. separate the interests of house shape and garden noise protection so that the main thing remains the main thing
2. don’t burn money on rebuilding a converted mixed-use commercial, office, and owner’s apartment property from 1960, but build a house of today
3. model the terrain without stairs to an old-fashioned elevated ground floor entrance
4. use the beloved kink firstly as a living-feel chakra and secondly to create a courtyard zone on the property
5. leave the structural planning to people who can think in ceiling fields and roof structures.
