I forgot - we need a guest bath for the kids (two boys)...

Hi Susan,

Yes, Thank you very much - indeed; consent of the co-owners, building permit, structural engineer - everything done / approved...fist draft is result of a discussion w/ architect (friend of mine). I'd only like to find out what's possible...

Two stairwells? Is the one at the top of the plan needed or required.? That's a useful amount of space.

It's two 5-level brick and mortar houses. The one on the right side (incl. prospect living room) has been built/attached ten years after the bigger/left one. Using the stairwell for sth. different is not possible - "public" area...

I don't even see the entry point or the other exits from the space .I need some pics of the spaces like the atrium and also I realll need to know where the plumbing was for the other unit. I have no idea where the public sopace is and how it affects the whole idea. These are not good drawings no architect I know would do this.

Are those the drawings your friend provided?

Hi Patricia,

Apologies - I've tried to draw what has been hand-written - does the attached help? Can do some pics from stairwell/atrium as well...

Kind regards,

Sebastian

Pics from stairwell/Atrium...

Too bad you're not on the top(5th) level. Then the old srairwell might be used. It appears the old bathroom would work as a guest/kids bath.

it is already in use by the guy living on top of the house...

I've "converted" the sketch (from paper) to an electronic version - it is (as of now) result of a brainstorming - we'll go into detail for measuring both bathrooms - unless there is a good reason/idea to structure it differently...idea was to use room on the bottom (street side/light) as living rooms, the more silent center as parents area and the new part for the kids...
