9 years ago

Just some extra detailed photos from earlier request. Its nice to have a big room but its awkward arranging furniture so it doesn't look like a doctors waiting room.

Hi Sophie, so sorry to be a pain but we would need all the dimensions and where the window are on the wall, and the width of the windows and doors, like this:- metres and cm's are easier. I guessed:- So i made the entrance in to a reading area with bookcases and an armchair. Followed by a good desk to break up the long wall, leading to a seating area overlooking the garden. Tucked around the corner is the T.V area.

It’s almost a shame that it can’t be located on the left hand side of the building - so that people sleeping in the guest room could access it via the hallway. If that could be possible - it would be better in my opinion .

Hi Minnie, thanks for your reply. The paint brand is Johnstone's. My wife also thought Brilliant white might be too cold so we are now considering something with a little bit more warmth, possibly a more 'creamy' colour. The living room faces West, the dining room East - the living room gets the sun in the evening. The paneling would be going around the inside edge of the arch, basically an architrave that wraps the sides and the under edge. I have had it suggested to me that we paint the two window walls and the archway in blue as that will link the rooms together whilst ensuring that the colour is visible regardless of which room you are in or where you are sat? The boards will stay exposed though we are sanding them are treating with a light oak coloured varnish. Furniture wise, the sofa is an beige/mocha fleck colour, dining table is 'shabby chic' wooden top with white legs, Coffee table is wood topped with white legs.

I think your plan is good. I assume your home is a Victorian or 30s terrace as they do tend to be long and skinny, with a middle room that used to be used as a dining room in the old days. I think swopping the table to the end extension room and creating a cosy sitting room at the front of the house where the walls are red would flow better. Then you can have your office space in the middle. If the budget allows, I think knocking the wall between the kitchen and the office/dining area would widen out the room and make it less corridor like. Just a thought. I would also paint the walls throughout in one colour. Something brighter and cheerful such as an off white or pale green. The room will look bigger in a paler colour. I also think a rectangular table, if budget allows, can take up less room than a circular one and give better flow. Last weeks George Clark’s programme (C4) featured a very similar house to yours with the three rooms in a row, so may be worth catching up on to give you ideas. Here’s a few pics to inspire. 😊
