POLL: What's Britain's best building?
Comments (73)These are all great buildings, but with the exception of the Shard, are all very traditional. Personally, I would like to see more contemporary examples: the Lloyds Building; Sainsburys in Camden, or my personal favourite, the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts at the UEA outside Norwich. A very peaceful, calm and relaxing space....See MoreSelf build living space design help
Comments (19)Another recommendation for Karen @ OnePlan even more so if you're going back and forwards as she can show you a few ideas. Everything really seems set in stone bar the plant room? There also looks to be stairs on the gable end which I assume you need for letting the dogs out? My (very non-pro!) comments on your green plan. I'd reduce the plant room depth to 1500 and the gap between the island and units to 1200. I'd access the plant room from the larder end so lose the corner cupboard. I'd put the oven at the end of the sink run and just use shelves to balance the gap between the oven and window. It means losing the window seat however just thinking it would actually work better for extra seating in the living room? I'd go for a smaller hob and have it on the island away from the stools with a downdraft extractor. The living space is a little tight but assuming you're having a tv I'd hang it against the play room wall then chose a slim chaise sofa without arms so it doesn't visually close the space off coming up the stairs. I know sofa arms shouldn't normally overlap but I think it works with window seats. You may also be able to fit a small accent chair in the left corner next to the tv and then have a sideboard on the plant room wall for extra storage....See MoreHouse looks smaller since we made our changes
Comments (17)Thanks guys. It's reassuring to hear that, I'm really hoping it is the case that it's just down to it not being finished and that it will look great when done. And I know the space is still a good size, but still can't help thinking that it feels shorter?!? Still worried that either (or all) of adding the opening between the lounge/kitchen, putting the wide sliding doors on, making the TV wall longer is creating a (negative) optical illusion. Would you say an L-shaped sofa would help the feeling of space or detract? Something like this... (see floorplan - is sofa too far over?)...See MoreLighting Supplier?
Comments (42)Sorry if I'm repeating Minnie's suggestions, but this is, or looks very much like the one you love. You might need a second mortgage though. Or win the lottery. Which is totally possible if you invest in lottery tickets. https://www.jasboutique.co.uk/adriena-crystal-gold-branch-detail-round-chandelier/...See MoreAmber Jeavons Ltd
