A guy (concrete contractor) in New England built his entire house out of concrete. Made a detailed care thread about it here:

This one kind of has a separate entrance. The bonus room has it's own stairs up and you'd use that left side door. I think that'd be better than exterior stairs, especially in the winter. We throw up some business related art in that hallway and it's all good. The real goal of the external entrance is so clients aren't walking through the living areas.

I'm pretty sure the family/living room are open to each other in this one. We'd try to do a more modern version of this:

That makes it pretty open without just having huge rooms.

I do not think anyone mentioned it, but it would be safer to store the bulk of the firewood away from your main house. Are you required to have fire sprinklers in your home? You can expect average of $10,000 more for that to be installed, but if it saves your life it is worth it.
