3 days a week, one more in city center office and one NWD with kids at home
Not sure about opening up the hallway tbh, I feel like it's important to have some seperation between the upstairs and the downstairs. I also dislike the idea of having people walking straight into the living room from the front door?

That's good, at least you know you don't like it that way!

FWIW I looked at some houses like this and I thought it was awesome but where do you hang your coat?

Might be worth chucking images into SketchUp or what ever program you prefer to make a 3d visual. Not sure if I'd like decking on the main route into house, won't it get scratched to shit?

I agree with this, don't like the look of it at all. Also a massive heat sink having your living room so open and your tv noise etc carries upstairs which you probably don't want with young kids.

+1 for keeping a bit of a hallway, only just noticed that so double vote for option 2.

The journey to the kitchen is a bit long in option two. Also can the WC not be a big wet room? Is the wall between the sitting room and hallway structural? I'd loose that to open up the hallway deadspace. But it all really depends what's important to you and how you use spaces most.
Do you wfh 5 days a week? Sod a tiny office.
