It's really up to Sal_sa_by to decide what is important and then rank them from not negotiable to less important so she can work out where the comprises will be made. Some of the things I can see that need to be decided. Double or single garage. Garage attached or separate. Living rooms taking northern light or southern views. Bedrooms all together or split. Laundry with direct access to outside or walk through house. Courtyards that access front or back or are built in. Total budget. Zoning (total allowed site cover) All those things will have a massive bearing on the final design and each thing may be more or less important to her. To give advice without knowing them is a bit futile. The design she has had prepared has compromises but so will every plan that can be built on that block. Those compromises may be quite acceptable for her, and there are several things to like about the plan. Any good designer should have explained some of those compromises with her and got an idea of what is and isn't important so she can get as close as possible to her dream home on that lot.
