The wood beds are made of 4 courses of new oak railway sleepers. I think these are 250x150mm and they come in standard lengths, often around 1.8m or 2.4m, so are cut down to fit. Beds around 600mm high are good to perch on.

My sitting room needs help

A Crew of Two - Thanks for your thoughts. Excellent point about the sofas. I'll have a move around later and then re-photograph. Re the coffee table. I'm not keen on rattan. I was thinking of this ottoman for the centre of the room as it would serve well as a surface on which to place a tray of drinks and nibbles. http://www.made.com/sofas-and-armchairs/ottomans-and-footstools/branagh-large-ottoman-barley-beige What do you think? groverlaxle Thanks re the rugs. I think you are right I'd best source a rug locally. Perhaps it's a good idea for me to choose my ottoman/coffee table first as the one above might get entirely lost on a cream/beige rug. Perhaps a hazlenut sisal would work better in that respect. I like the texture of sisal.

Help with layout for chambre d'hote sitting room/dining room
Q
Comments (3)
It looks like the little kitchen area has now gone so I would create a booth style seating area in that space. The piano I would then put at an angle in the other nook facing into the room as a feature corner. The rest of the seating would then be in the main central area. I think ultimately this depends on the budget you now have to finish the room, whether lighting can be changed to incorporate some features and task lighting/pendants. Have you considered having a designer look at the space? I work remotely and include lighting, layout and accessorising in my PDF remote designs. As you already have the wall colour and flooring sorted this you would be surprised how affordable the price is :) best of luck. It's looking great so far.

New Quartz countertops sitting on shims.
Q

Like all quartz brands and also even granites they must be glue down correctly and with quartz it is silicone and no shims at all, you do not need them if the cabinets are level. First thing any installer should check with a 6" level. side to side, front to back. I can tell you know that this will void the Silestone warranty or any other manufacturers warranty, from the photos you have shown. You are correct does not matter if the floors are way out of level, the adjustments on the cabinets will take up the issues there. But sometimes it is also the legs are not weight rated for stone. They use them because the are cheap, but the flex and bow under the load of stone. The photo below is straight from the Silestone fabrication and installation manual and this is from our draft manual for one of the major manufacturers. Your stone counters do not even look like they have been stuck down into place, there is no silicone, nothing! Ps I know of two members on here that work for Silestone. They generally will pass information on.
