After the TE insisted upon inquiry that such frills were not planned, I simply believe her. But maybe the architect thinks in such "standards," that might be an explanation :)
The average is probably "skewed" by the fact that fewer people settle for anything less than a mansion :)The average single-family house in the USA has 235 sqm of living space as a new build.
Well, that depends on the job. I don't work on an assembly line and there is always something to do. In that respect, there is probably a reason why overtime is compensated with the gross salary for me...if the planned overtime is canceled
Not all Americans are named Ewing or Carrington, and the Scandinavia from ZDF Herzkino shouldn't be taken too "literally" either ;-)
Exactly. But in the "Scandinavia" of ZDF’s "Herzkinos," people live on estates next to which a Ponderosa seems like a "plot."In Scandinavia, people generally live more simply; opulence and ostentation are encountered less often. Often, people live in beautiful houses that would be considered holiday homes in this country.
The average single-family house in the USA has 235 sqm of living space as a new build. In Germany, the average for new builds is about 140 sqm of living space. My grandparents have one of the smaller houses in their middle-class suburb with about 280 sqm. My parents stored almost all their furniture when they came to Germany because they couldn’t fit the furniture into the "small" rooms. You don’t have to be a Kennedy to have a lot of living space. And then mud rooms, laundry rooms, walk-in closets, etc. easily fit into the floor plans.
