The brief / honest self-checks

Where the design stands

9 PASS · 0 FAIL
01   Room schedule reconciles to areaPASS
02   Bedrooms on one floor; two 13 x 15+; ensuitePASS
03   Living 240+; dining 150+; office 2 110+PASS
04   Hall limits and circulation below 12%PASS using gross conditioned area
05   Straight entry-to-rear axisPASS
06   No wall/post within kitchen work zonePASS
07   Focus office separated; two exterior wallsPASS
08   Skylights in roof planePASS
09   Specified ceiling envelopesPASS

Circulation: the denominator matters. A is 11.97% and B is 11.78% when measured against gross conditioned area. Against net room area they are 13.69% and 13.50%, so both FAIL a net-area interpretation of the 12% target. C is 12.11% gross and 13.76% net and FAILS either interpretation. No hall exceeds 120 sq ft.

What we would refine

Reduce the generous footprint

The 3,399 sq ft gross house is substantially larger than the family yardstick. I would test a smaller service wing and gathering nook while protecting the two offices, kitchen working room and four upstairs bedrooms.

More specific materials and joinery

The models still use simplified upholstery, art, vegetation and material textures. Hardware, trim, lighting and storage deserve another pass tied to the family's actual belongings and preferences.

Extend the route thoughtfully

The tour prioritizes hosting spaces, stairs and every bedroom. A longer version could visit the offices, baths and spa; tight turns and doorways should be reviewed again whenever walls or furniture move.
