Variants for furnishing the all-purpose room

Variant 3 with rotated table
without fireplace

I prefer option 3,
view from the sofa into the garden or towards the TV,
can be furnished in various ways,
the dining table is often rotated

I must admit I did not expect such a clear result :-)

If you want to keep the fireplace and would like to use it as a small room divider as a partition to the couch: what else might be possible in terms of the floor plan?
Does anyone perhaps have a completely different idea?

Thank you!!!

When we have friends over for dinner - or are invited to friends' homes, no one looks into the kitchen or the garden. Unless the cook calls for help. People talk and look at each other instead.
I'm not a cooking show!

You talk at the table, but not with the cook, since half the people have their backs to them.
I think both seating positions have advantages and disadvantages.

Honestly: everyone has a neck under their head. When I have visitors, they look around. At the plate, at the cook, outside, or at the new piece of furniture. When I'm visiting, I look around. I don't care whether I'm looking at a nice dresser when I'm visiting or the plant pot on the terrace. I also get up sometimes if something interests me, and if someone outside sees an alien, they can call out, and everyone turns around. Basically, people occupy themselves with either themselves or something at the table.
I find this discussion about who looks where a bit exaggerated. If you consider your own preferences, alone or as a couple, then the thoughts are justified, but if you receive guests at 7 p.m., then it is either already dark outside or you are (still) sitting outside on the terrace. Or the shutters block the view anyway.

Construction project resumed and planning a new floor plan.

Then I would also plan a new floor plan.
What you are doing now is just moving furniture back and forth on fixed 9.90 x 5.30 m.

And then the question. Are these dimensions fixed?

In 9.90 m length, you can't properly fit 3 units (living/dining/kitchen) in my opinion. That would be 3.30 m per unit, which is far too little for living. You need at least 4-4.5 m. That leaves 5.5 - 6 m for dining + cooking. And as you can see, that is tight. It hardly matters whether the dining table is placed crosswise or lengthwise. I consider the kitchen with over 8 running meters anyway somewhat too large.

P.s. I would probably also prefer V3. For a final decision, I would need two days, during which I would have to constantly look at the plans (woman, blonde) :)
