Default Bedroom or boxroom?

Anyone see that story last week about some builder (Red...something?)
that had built a row of about 9 'town houses'. The stairs had a sharp
bend and it was impossible to get most furniture above the ground floor
(which was kitchen and dining room).

On being pressed, they said the homes were intended for 'modern young
people who liked minimalism and modular furniture'. Or, in other words,
flatpacks...


Surely this sort of thing is a basic design rule?
Either it was deliberate or someone screwed up royally and doesn't want
to admit it ;-)

As an aside, a family down the road has just built an enclosed porch on
the front of their house, complete with an offset door. No chance of
getting an assembled wardrobe through that. No rear access to the
property either.
Clearly a lot of thought went into that idea... :-)
