Hey ... it is now too late to change the plans anyway.
But like every woman she can not stop to launch some small sentences you know : "this garage is bigger than the house ! ", "you do not need 3 places !" ...then always same answer => "yes I need this place, I would place a bed in the garage if I am bored"

Tell her "better to have a Den/Study annexed in the Garage, than to confiscate the dining room when working from home, usually works.

I will keep it in mind

Some update. Level "-1" finished. Floor "0" also.
Next week they will start to add the wall for level "1" and prepare the concrete base for the garage :
