My observations:

1. Move the window of the dining room to flush with the wall demarcating the main flat and the selfcon. This is because the kitchen door is obstructing a little part of the window.

2. Reduce the walk-in closet of the bedroom beside the kitchen as well as moving the bathroom in same so as to have a recess of about 900mm. This is in order to have a small window slot in for cross ventilation.

3. Why have that chamfers at the edges of the building because I doubt there would be same at the roofing of the building except there would be a kinda aesthetic column/pillars at the spots.


Thanks.

Re: why do that? The dining window mustn't be casement or projected. We don't have the architect's schedule so we shouldn't second-guess him. That window could be sliding after all. Making it unnecessary. Personally, Windows placed in d middle of a wall allows for better interior design with curtains, blinds etc.

2. Reduce the walk-in closet of the bedroom beside the kitchen as well as moving the bathroom in same so as to have a recess of about 900mm. This is in order to have a small window slot in for cross ventilation.

Re: this suggestion sir, will end up reducing the luxury of that room.
If that room is on the north side, there's no cause for alarm. A conducive room temperature wld be preserved.

Alternatively, you can swap the kitchen + store for the dining + terrace. It wld be interesting to see how it pans out. And you will be guaranteed a 2nd window for the bedroom opening unto the terrace.
This would get you lesser number of doors opening into your kitchen with a better cabinet arrangement.

3. Why have that chamfers at the edges of the building because I doubt there would be same at the roofing of the building except there would be a kinda aesthetic column/pillars at the spots.

Re: I'm puzzled too about that. So till I see d elevations, I reserve my comment.

Thanks.

Generally, I think your architect did a good job. Except for your eccentric choices( if you do have), I think the design is very OK.

You are welcome. The room sizes are standard but not luxurious. I don't know how much of land you have. Only d dining would be choked up. Considering that it's a transition area by this design, let Ur designer look into making it wider.

Don't cancel the store. Trust me, you will need it. If not a food store, a box room.

thank u sir. will do as u ve stated am reali grateful

Its a good design. I will suggest the architect utilizes grid lines, this will aid in accuracy and allow walls align perfectly thereby reducing waste during trenching.
