the direction the doors open is is purely random. I just defined inward and outward, everything else I left up the the software which does it according to it's own "logic"...
One thing that has me a bit worried is the "Bathroom above Kitchen" thing. I know it is recommended, but I'm not sure whether it is mandatory. In the catalogue of our house-builders there are a few examples where it is not that way, so I'm hoping it might be possible to do it the way we have it in our plan now. If we have to do it otherwise it would disrupt the whole plan and force us to move the kitchen, because the placement of the bathroom upstairs is difficult to change without ruining the whole concept.
The "Arbeitszimmer" is the room that gets the most light the whole day over, so I'd like to to leave that there (my soon-to-be-wife is a designer and she'll take all the light she can get). Using that area for a bathroom would be a complete waste. Putting the bathroom above where the kitchen is now would also cause quite some problems since the rooms on that side of the hose have big floor-to-(almost)ceiling windows and that is not something I want to have in my bathroom...seriously...
I'll just wait and see what the architects say. We have our planning session on the 16th, that's next monday, so we still have time to refine our plans until then, the architects there will then help us optimize it, maybe tell us some things won't work...we'll see.
A seperate entrance to the cellar would be very difficult and I guess we won't piut that in. Water connections for the cellar are on my list, maybe we'll have a washbasin put in rightaway.
