Wall colour advice for open kitchen dining area
Comments (8)If you were my client I would agree with Samantha that you really need to keep it to the naturals to keep it as light and airy as possible. The units are fairly dark and the black tiles will also be sucking in light so a green would make it feel quite a bit smaller and darker than it does now. I would paint it all in a nice clean and fresh off white (floors, walls and skirting) and than add your accent green in through accessories which will also make it easy to change if you get board of it or find is too cold in winter months. You could also paper the feature wall, as suggested, in keeping with the scheme. Hang a large mirror to help reflect light and then get some nice warm blinds or window dressing to add texture, warmth and a homely feel. You could also change the small light fitting in the dining room to a large pendent style light to hang over the dining table which will add impact and make the room feel more balanced. You could consider a 3D render/image of the space which do not cost too much but will give you a great look at the room after painting so you can see what is possible and what effect the colour will have on the space. I hope that helps :)...See MoreAppreciate advice new Kitchen/Dining Room - same FLOORING or zoned?
Comments (9)Good morning Georgie and thanks for posting your dilemma. You're not the first renovator to have asked this question and won't be the last. You want the warmth and homeliness and texture of wood in the dining room but the practicality of tile in the kitchen - hard when the two spaces are one! I recommend that you go for a porcelain tile that is wood-identical. It fools everybody and is eminently practical. I would suggest that you consider a rug in the dining room (if you have tinies buy a hosable one from Dash & Albert ) to add texture and softness and then everybody is happy. Look at this one from Mandarin Stone, (Baltic Fir) but plenty of others are available. If you need any other help, just ask. I am an interior designer specialising in total house renovations and new builds for private clients and developers.

Comments (1)Hi, you can get professionals to clean and seal your stone. You can also do it yourself, but I'd presume the professional clean would be better. I've sealed my own stone tiles and it was very easy. A simple wipe on then off process. From what I understand your stone is uneven surface. From that I think you can't put flooring on top without leveling it out. And considering it doesn't cover all the floor, I'd remove it if you were planning a new floor finish. But if your not fussed for the floor, and watching your budget, and plan to replace it at some stage, I'd get my DIY on with some stone cleaner and sealer....See MoreKitchen Help - Floor and Wall's
