So i have just bought a new house and everything, (and i mean everything) needs to be redone,
im starting off with the Fireplace as it is my fav part of the house atm.
i want the room to feel warm with shades of browns and blues and need the fireplace to fit in but be the focal point of the room
so you can see the before and after so far! i am keeping the wooden shelf as it is a lovely piece of wood but other than that the whole fireplace is stripped back to bare bricks... any ideas or suggestions on the best way to go forward with wood or gas, surrounds and also TV, mirror or art above fireplace?
i will upload more of the whole room soon i'm just in the process ripping out the rest of the wood panneling

Help! Hallway and stairs laid bare, ready for Houzz overhall!
Comments (8)Thank you, all, for the input! Finally, following some electrical surprise that needed sorting, this project is fully underway. The hall, stairs and landing have been completely stripped of their nicotine-addled liner paper, and are starting from bare plaster. This means we'll likely take advantage of the once-in-a-blue-moon super-smooth walls and just paint them white, making a feature out of the stair and landing carpet (hall flooring to come next year when we do the rest of the ground floor). The long-wall is north-east facing, and I'd like to be bold with colour, and am leaning toward blue green for dengue shui reasons! Where can I get a Crucial Trading Audrey-esque stair runner in a cooler colour set? Further, my partner has gotten into the idea of being quirky and purchased a set of WWII paratrooper jump lights to install above the door to the downstairs loo (now knows as "the War Room" or "the jump seat"...). So now my bright green mosaic WC (that we'll eventually extend into a wet room) is begging for metro tiles instead. I still want a pop of colour through the door... I was thinking a pretty strong green (again for feng shui reasons) that goes with the stair carpet, and white hexagon tiles or black something-or-others on the floor. Thoughts...??? It's the coordination between spaces that is throwing me!...See More1960s house gets a contemporary makeover & complete refurbishment
Comments (1)Tell you what, I like that! Looks very well indeed! Funnily enough I’ve been looking at a 2 acre site, looking to go super modern, split level that looks like a single story, flat roof, underground garage, copper, rust lead etc!

Comments (4)Have a look at shade sails, the mesh type are strong allow some light through but will provide privacy. If you overlap them at different levels, it will allow angled sunlight through while blocking the view from above. As an alternative a pergola with a sliding awning, though a bit more work to cover the whole space....See MoreComplete Home Refurbishment

All painting, plastering, plumbing, flooring and electrical fittings were redone. This included the kitchen and bathroom fit out, living room, bedroom and hallway.
