We have a downstairs cloakroom in need of an update. I want to keep the wall tiles in shower & splash-back, but replace flooring, wall colour & porcelain. I would love any suggestions ! Many thanks

Would appreciate some wall-unit ideas
Comments (0)Hi - We've carried out an extensive refurbishment of our flat, dividing a large open-plan kitchen area which was awkwardly-shaped into two rooms, a study-cum-bedroom with a large internal Crittall-style window, together with a combined lounge-kitchen (see attached photos). But we're struggling to find suitable units to put on the empty lounge wall facing the kitchen: can anyone suggest some specific makes/models of units that would work here? Specifically we would like floating base units (or with very slender feet) on which to put the TV & stereo, plus some mixed wall units + shelving to avoid ending up with too "officey/corporate" a feel -- if you know what I mean! The space is quite limited**. Our current TV is a little too large for the space so we would downsize it and get one with a narrower bezel - things have move on a lot since we bought this one and moved in here! Thanks in advance for any ideas! Bernie ** See marked-up sketch: Distance from corner radiator cover to sofa is 2m, so any floor unit would have to be a maximum of 160cm long to leave leg-room. For the wall units & shelving we have up to 330cm to play with before arriving too close to the corridor. Ceiling height is 252cm. Ideally the depth of any floor units would be no more than 50cm....See MoreI would like some ideas on updating the front of my house
Comments (11)hello, it depends on how much of it you want to change, we've all been there, decorated a room or something, then changed our minds a year later, so I'm of the view that basic colours work the best...I've done it with many gardens keep the colours basic then add on..you could do as little as spend £50 to transform your garden. If your house was mine and I had an unlimited budget I'd concrete and paint the wall white, put a palm where the shrub is in a white square planter, and repaint the woodwork, I do like the idea of grey but it would depend on if you are keeping it all the same colour. I don't agree with the Tudor comments, your house is quite new, why would you want it to look old..but of course we all have different tastes... Personally I love buildings painted white, fresh looking concrete with tropicals in the garden, I have a 6 foot Australian tree fern and bananas in my garden, there's nothing like sitting out there in the summer, I love it......See MoreDownstairs cloakroom ideas
Comments (6)Hi. I used these tiles in my main bathroom and painted the walls boring white. Couldn't face any more paint decisions at the time. However, it has worked out well with accessories. Some weeks I have an orange week with orange towels and bath mats which is just gorgeous. Other weeks I go grey and white or grey and black. Sometimes it's pale blue or bright pink. These tiles are so versatile, you'd get away with any colour. Now that I've got over my paint decision overload, I am strongly considering painting the walls grey. Like the idea of downpipe grey, farrow and ball....See MoreLooking for ideas to update a feature wall in our livingroom.
