Why the floor plan first?

The floor plan decides the living feeling — long before facade or fittings come into play. It determines how light falls into the rooms, how short the daily routes are and whether retreat and community have their place. Facade, roof shape and material can be adapted more easily later than an unfavorable room layout.

Those who put the floor plan first plan from everyday life instead of from the brochure image. That is why the rule here is: first search and compare, then understand the planning logic - and in the end find the design that fits your life.

Frequently asked questions about floor plans

Living area, layout, changes: The editorial team of Hausbau-Grundrisse answers the questions most frequently asked before choosing the floor plan.

How do I find the right living area for my floor plan?
Calculate from everyday life, not from the wish image. For a couple 90 to 110 square meters are often sufficient, a family of four usually feels comfortable between 130 and 150 square meters once children's rooms, a workspace and storage space are added. What is decisive is not the number alone but the layout: A well-zoned floor plan with short paths appears more generous than a larger area with many corridors. First note which rooms you really use daily, then compare floor plans in the respective size class - this way you develop a feeling for how many square meters your living everyday life actually needs.
How do I correctly read a floor plan?
A floor plan shows the house from a bird's eye view, as a horizontal section approximately at window height. Walls appear as strong lines, doors as quarter-circle arcs indicating their swing direction, windows as thin double lines within the wall. The entered dimensions indicate room widths and lengths, often supplemented by the square meters per room. Pay attention to the orientation (north arrow), the location of the stairs, load-bearing walls and the connections for the kitchen and bathroom. Those who know these symbols quickly recognize how light, paths and furniture layout are distributed in the room - and whether the design fits their own daily living.
Can I still change an existing floor plan?
In most cases yes - the flexibility depends on the construction however. Non-load-bearing interior walls can often be shifted or omitted so that two small rooms become one large room. Load-bearing walls, stair position and the position of the wet cells with their piping are significantly more complex to change. It is sensible to collect desired changes early and coordinate with the planning instead of rebuilding later. For this use an example floor plan as a starting point and mark what should stay and what is flexible - this way the design can be specifically adapted to your needs.
What does a floor plan modification cost?
A fixed amount cannot be named credibly because the effort depends heavily on the intervention. Roughly: relocating a lightweight partition is manageable, shifting load-bearing elements, the stairs or the bathroom and kitchen becomes noticeably more expensive because statics and piping must be planned along. The timing also plays a role - adaptations in the planning phase are almost always cheaper than changes during the construction phase. Consider possible follow-up costs for permitting and energy certificate. As a rough guide we indicate cost ranges; binding figures come only with the specific design.
What does zoning mean in a floor plan?
Zoning means grouping rooms logically according to their use so that rest and activity do not interfere with each other. Common is the separation into an open, lively day area with living, cooking and dining and a quieter retreat area with bedrooms and children's rooms. Buffer zones such as the hallway, bathroom or utility room lie in between. Clear zoning ensures short distances, less noise between areas and more privacy. When comparing floor plans it is worthwhile to check whether the day and night zones are separated and whether loud and quiet rooms do not border each other directly.
Who is Hausbau-Grundrisse aimed at?
Hausbau-Grundrisse is aimed at everyone in the German-speaking region who is planning a new build and wants to put the floor plan at the center - from the initial search and comparison through understanding the planning logic to adapting their own design. You search floor plans by living area, number of rooms, house type and special form, read clearly prepared planning knowledge and find designs for different life phases. The guiding principle is: First the floor plan, then the house. We do not rate providers and assign no rankings - we help you find the spatial layout that fits your everyday life.
How many floor plans are there on hausbau-grundrisse.de?
The catalogue of Hausbau-Grundrisse currently comprises around 3,084 floor plans from the German-speaking region. The collection is continuously growing because new models are added and discontinued designs are removed. They can be filtered by living area, number of rooms, house type and special form so that you can quickly narrow down from the total the designs suitable for your project.
What do the floor plans on this page cost?
Viewing and comparing the floor plans on Hausbau-Grundrisse is possible without charge; for the use of the catalogue no fee is charged. A floor plan is initially a planning template – the actual costs arise only when you plan and build a specific house with a manufacturer. The prices for this depend on the fit-out stage, equipment and provider and are indicated in the respective offer.
Where do the floor plans in this catalogue come from?
The floor plans come from the model programs of around 140 house manufacturers and providers from the German-speaking region. The editorial team collects the designs from their catalogues and prepares them uniformly so that they can be used via filters and comparison views. This way you see designs from different companies side by side without having to search each catalogue individually.
Can I download or print a floor plan?
Yes, each floor plan has a detail page that you can print to paper using the browser's print function. You collect interesting designs on a watch list and have the selection sent to you as a PDF folder. In the floor plan planner you export your own designs additionally as image file in 2D and 3D as well as PDF so that you can use the documents offline.
