Hi Will, I have one other question about the dev you did too. I saw in your profile photos of the finished extension. One thing i noticed is that you kept the rear bay window shaped aspect of the flat and added the glass panel or perhaps door on the right hand side. Why did you choose this over having a completely flat back with bifolds / sliding doors? I had a builder round last week and he said changing the bay window shaped bit to a flat rear is complicated due to the steel / support needed. I just wondered of your decision was planning / cost / design related? Thanks

Hi thanks very much for the useful hints and tips, they've really helped! So far I've done a subtle re-jig of the decorative items on the shelves and thinned them out a bit to make it less busy (and more contemporary). I have added a cushion and throw plus a bit more useful storage baskets and so far I'm happier with it now. I also have to consider the overall flow of the room rather than 1 wall - for example when I walk into the room this wall is on the left and the sofa wall is on the right, and there was a risk that if I added shelves etc on this wall it would then unbalance the look of the room as the sofa walls are so far pretty plain. I'm getting a new sofa next month and when this arrives I'll be able to see the room in its finished form and can make any last minute adjustments!! I want to add some more shiny stuff and will get a nice chrome tray or centrepiece for my glass coffee table. Pffft, this house decor lark can take over your life sometimes :))

Picture window help please?

Ok, definitely changed my mind. Put it over towards the bifold. Personally, I would say that the least pressing concern is what it would look like from the back garden looking towards the house. I suspect that you will spend 95%+ time indoors and will really appreciate the view from the hall in to the garden several times a day. The window also centralises between the kitchen units and bifolds so has a natural centre point here. Also, look at the structural engineer’s drawings. You should get an idea of where the beam across the bifolds goes to. ‘Anything’ is possible structurally but the cost may vary. The only person who will probably notice these things is you - trust me I’ve been there . You have a lovely space and it will look great wherever a picture window goes. I really wouldn’t go moving kitchen units to centralise things. The only reason I have noticed these things is because of the question you asked but would admire a picture window wherever you put it. You’re right, it encroaches on the kitchen units. Defo towards the bifolds if it isn’t too expensive structurally.

Fabulous view! I think you are right to prioritise your children (and dog!) as they do need to let off steam. Your idea of moving all the bins etc over to one side is a good idea. You can then put up some fencing to screen it out of view, but leave access of course. The concrete area is a bit of an eye sore (hope I’m not offending you!). If you have the budget, I would get the concrete broken up and then lay attractive slabs, using the broken concrete as a hardcore base. Sandstone is most attractive and creates a lovely natural effect and it’s not too pricey. Porcelain is becoming very popular for patios and gives a more modern look. You may need a landscaper if you want it done well. That would be a great place to sit out. What aspect does the garden face? This will determine where you place seating areas and planting. if it is sunny where your planters are, then herbs and lavender will do very well. Peonies are not keen on being moved, but I’ve done it and as long as they are watered in well they should be fine. A pergola is a great idea. Choose a sunny spot ( you will use it more). Wisteria are big strong heavy plants so a pergola would be a good sturdy support. Some plants cope better with children and dogs than others, and of course aspect is crucial. Some plants need a good burst of sun, whilst others would wilt and need shadier spots. I am no designer, but I think if, to start, you created planting beds all around your perimeters, say 1m wide, remove the grass, dig in several bags of compost, there you need the right plants in the right place to succeed. That way the middle of the garden can be used by the children and dog. Below are some ideas, and I am happy to suggest plants once I know which parts of the garden are sunny or shady.
