You can do far better than this!

Your family room, kitchen and guest room will be dark.

You are spending a lot of money on porches which will rarely be used - too hot/humid/buggy in warm weather.

it has phony dormers. Anything fake like this is bad.

I'm not a fan of closet inside bathrooms.

The guest room is so small it may not hold twin beds.

I guess I can never understand fascination with 1.5 story structures. Human scale looks is nice, air conditioning a room in the attic structures is a nightmare. Same people who attack two story rooms because of perceived inefficiency, have no issue with supper hot attics.

While I see some things I'd change, I also don't think it's a "bad" plan. It has some potential.

Why is it that all the architects on these discussions shoot down every single plan they come across?

Why do you bring up an old post to ask this?
