looks good except that you have an unnecessary column on LL north wall. I would limit columns on that wall to 3 and center the middle one or place at wall dividing seating area/kitchen

I would leave the four columns on the north wall, maybe space them differently. There is an obnoxious idea going around that minimizing the number of columns is good. It is NOT good. Reducing the number of columns increase the weight of the beams. The weight of the beam will ALWAYS be more than the savings from eliminating a column and footing. Nowhere in the program does it say minimize the number columns.

I believe the way drawn is a passing vignette, that is all you need!
