If the house is 8 meters wide, the difference in height between the ridge and the eaves is already 290 cm, and at 10 meters it is 360 cm.

If you plan for 2 VGs, you get a loft, whether you want it or not. Unless you want the ceiling height under the ridge to be about 6 meters if everything stays open. I would just leave the first half width open all the way to the top, and make the area after that (say 180 to 360 high) a loft. You don't have to dismantle anything first, just run electricity and install two windows in the ridge. It would be nice if a normal staircase could be built into the attic. Ideas about what to do with this so far unused space will come sooner rather than later, as experience shows:)
