Is the glass a special kind? I have quite large windows and I find it can be quite cold.✳

Lighting an octagon shaped orangery/ garden room
Q

Thank you One Plan and Scott for your help. Yes on the drawings they have added some up lighters on the wall, it is something I like the idea of but wanted to see what others thought. I like the idea of lights built into the floor. Do you have any pictures of this at all? My concern would be objects getting in the way but as I am planning on having my sofas off the wall hopefully nothing should get in the way. What type of light would you suggest for this? Possibly a spot? We have also talked about having spots in the ceiling for when I need a lot of light in the room. Would you go with this too? Yes the LED strip sounds good too!! I really like the idea of the spots on the floor, the LED's and I thought the third could be lamps which would be on side table next to my sofa's. Then the spots would be there just for when I need a lot of light, e.g. cleaning, etc. As you can see in the drawing the next area along from the octagon has a curved ceiling. We thought it might be nice to put LED's here which would enhance the curve but I also this will be where my dining table would be so I thought a pendant or chandelier would be nice? Do you think these would compliment each other? Scott I would love to see a picture of the candelabra you mentioned. As you can probably tell I am struggling a bit with having almost three rooms in one. I want everything to flow and compliment each other nicely. Thank you both for your help! I really appreciate it! Thanks, H

Room layout -Really stuck with room layout

If you put the main tv in the area with the French doors - could you see your son from the kitchen ? ( it looks like you could )... I've put together a very quick sketch of an idea to make the most of that beautiful fireplace nook - with a couple of fireside chairs - have either a round display table ( flowers /family photos etc) in the bay or add seating and use as an alternative dining / homework table ? With your 2.5 and 2.3m sofa in the French room end ... If you enable tv viewing /games etc in a tablet it could open up more opportunity too ?! Even if it's fixed in different places rather than hand held if that could be a problem ? [marketing note - this is an example of a sketch consultation service that OnePlan offer . Normal rates would be £35ph. But in this instance, we are happy to have helped this Houzzer FOC ]

Kitchen window view, what to do with an odd 44+ metre path
Q

Thanks, all of the above I reckon! Between B&C would definitely do well with arches and climbers, it could turn into more of a haven for the Robins to nest, and the rear of that garden already has climbers.... On the bend, I'm going to double secure it with a secondary gate and may pay to put up some "private land" signs to make it clear its not part of BT and someone owns it. BINS! We generate an enormous amount of recycling, and our 11yr old can make a mess with it to boot. The bins do go down the main driveway and I wont change that since its the best route, however that is all at the front entrance end of the house, rubbish going out via the living and office. I was thinking about putting a tidy bin enclosure next to the gate which is at the house end of the drive, across the way from the house. While the big pile of soil is out front (left by ex owner from digging garage foundations), the refuse ends up right outside my lovely new entrance in a mess. The only reason I considered the path for rubbish was convenience, regardless that it would still go all the way down the driveway once a week, as taking rubbish out would be right by the laundry/kitchen door because that is where the path is. Neighbour #3 are new, moved in yesterday. They have unruly bamboo up against their back wall. With that part of the path being say between wall and curb stone, which should keep it contained, I could suggest to them that we re-plant it in my path an free up the end of their garden and be able to see the nice wall they have. These would be far easier to remove then tree would be a long time down the line..... I just REALLY dont want to become responsible to have to go into BT with a hedge trimmer though.... Ive already got an ENORMOUS garden to maintain......hmmm

Bad view from kitchen window
Q

I'm thinking maybe a beautiful window box with some lovely planting. The planting could be tallish as per pictures attached but it would still let in the light from the sky but shield you from unsightly views. And if that still doesnt help, you could put a couple of lovely trees in tubs either side of the window to shield the view higher up. But it's very difficult to advise without photos. I hope this helps x
