The clock is offset. I would feel infinitely better if it was in the middle of the wall!

I agree! As it is not always feasible to install real timber or stone, Karndean is the best vinyl option. I am going to have 36sqm of it installed in my own place. I have direct contacts with the manufacturers here in the UK. If anyone is interested, please inbox me and will get you in touch.

How could you not see the red star first? It's positioned in the middle of the picture, it's a striking colour and everything else is a bland mess. It's obviously a very nice kitchen but the first thing I would do if I moved in here is remove some of the clutter especially the red star so the lovely cabinets could take centre stage

POLL: What do you put above your fireplace?
Q

I am lucky enough to live in a flatshare that has a fireplace, even if it doesn't work! I just love the way it brings the room together and encourages snuggling up on the sofas with a nice cup of hot tea and a good book to read! There is something very homely about a fireplace and although our one is bare of any mantlepiece decorations, one of my favorite artworks claimed its spot above it almost as soon as I stepped foot in the house! The color of the marble and the undertones in the paintings couldn't have worked any better if I wanted them to and I feel like the dimensions are pretty well balanced! My flatmates certainly didn't oppose!

I noticed the dog pictures first, perhaps because they look so unusual and as I have a dog maybe my eyes are pre-programmed to find them! Saying that, the bath is pretty unusual too but it took me a while to find that amidst all the other clutter!

One eye 'clocked' the clock , the other the soft grey sink unit ! I really like this room .

The baskets caught my eye 'cos I like baskets - but the overall impression is of a disjointed collection of disconnected 'things'. The low fireplace opening and the storage opening adjacent to it is not a good look. It has a slightly unpleasing feel.

Hello Emmeline,

I too noticed the J! as my surname begins with J! From left to include the chimney breast works really well.. I'd tweak the shelves.. think the clock and J placement is just right! : ))

The cold fireplace. It's awful. Place some logs or coals in it . The colour at the back of the hearth is even colder looking

The pseudo, shop-bought 'industrial'. It's like pretend french. It doesn't work.

Nobody has voted for or mentioned the TV, which is great. Maybe that's what this poll is about..
The (un)necessary evil of including a TV into your interior, without it dominating the scene

Just goes to show, we all see different things in different ways, would love to see the results of the survey by gender and age as am sure it is all related. Depends on what you are looking for at that moment in life I guess.

Fun post and survey, great to see such different answers, shows how complex design is and there are few absolutes.

The fire grate. The clock is very obvious but I love the shape of the fire grate.
