There are also few examples of absolute symmetry in very good architecture.
I strongly disagree, there is a lot of excellent architecture that is both almost perfectly functional and also symmetrical. Hardly anyone can afford it...
I am not a fan of houses whose façade completely lacks any harmony because they were planned only from the inside out.
Building from the inside out and a pleasing window arrangement do not at all exclude each other. : If you can and want to change only little, that is fine. In addition to the suggestion "light from above," there are also excellent lights that come very close to daylight. Try searching for CoeLux in connection with room+project in a relevant search engine. Regarding bathroom windows – location is everything when it comes to view in and out. We have a terrace door in the bathroom; from outside a deer occasionally looks in. Facing neighbors or a street, I might do the same, but then with a curtain or another privacy option.
