Since the lot you describe is smaller than my open living area, I would suggest looking at some of the "shotgun" house plans around New Orleans,LA. I think you can build up and back and get an interesting home with a loft for space. It can be done, A porch with an entry to a narrow hall at the back might work best for you. Will you plan a courtyard (closed)? or what? What part of the country are you in? What are your local codes?

Thank you all for your reply ,much appreciated. Since the size is rectangular I feel more of modern look. I would love to have a Victorian or a classy look though. Also I am allowed to construct roughly around 1800 to 1900 sqft. The plot entry is from the width(10sqmtr) side, so some more restriction. I am from Mumbai (India ) , the climate here is kind of extreme.Though the coolest can go max to 10 degree Celsius and the hottest can go max 45 degree Celsius. This will be my dream place where I would like to call in friends and family, though there is no pool , I would like to have a plunge pool kind of at the rooftop.A small sitting lounge to entertain guest. Sine it a small size , I am limited to doing all this stuff mostly at the roof top. Please advice.Thank you

Hello Rachna, We have gone through your posts. Please clarify the room size is it 12x8 or 16x9.3 . Let's start from bottom line, what is the budget that you can spare now for the makeover. A lot of remodelling would depend upon the budget .BTW, I really appreciate your honesty about the affordability ! Coming back to the topic, I believe your TV unit is placed in a good position but other units will require movement. Please do confirm the size. Also how is the ceiling ..it looks like false ceiling is already done. Thanks, Nitin CORNERSTONE DESIGNS Bangalore.

Hi Purvi, for open plan kitchen you can change the fridge door position to front facing instead of balcony facing. One more option is, you can plan for pocket doors. The advantage of that is if you wish to have the open feeling you can keep it open or close it. My personal advise will be, instead of asking for individual queries you should consult a person and take complete details as per your requirements.
