I can't imagine that you actually need two air vents in one door? I would probably seal up the top one completely then maybe just get a decorative cover for the lower one? Even a white plastic one louvred down so you can't see into the 'blackness' a Carolina mentioned would be better. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Grille-Cover-150x150mm-WOODEN-Ventilation/dp/B00Q9HG1VU/ref=sr_1_36?ie=UTF8&qid=1497888481&sr=8-36&keywords=vent+cover https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B001E09BK0/ref=sr_1_28?ie=UTF8&qid=1497888417&sr=8-28&keywords=decorative+vent+grate https://www.amazon.co.uk/Plastic-Ducting-Ventilation-200x300mm-flyscreen/dp/B016343RUQ/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1497888586&sr=8-5&keywords=white+vent+cover Another solution would be to seal up both vents, remove the skirting from the bottom of the door and cut off about an inch from the bottom to allow ventilation at that point.

Hi Niamh, I definitely agree with Carolina about having Wall Lights instead of Table Lamps as you will then have more space. Here I will offer a more glitzy option and a more industrial option that I feel would work well with your room. This is the Annalee collection, that is designed for the bathroom but works in all other rooms in the home. [Annalee Wall Light [(https://www.houzz.co.uk/products/marquis-by-waterford-annalee-wall-light-chrome-prvw-vr~102091311) [Annalee 5-light Chandelier [(https://www.houzz.co.uk/products/annalee-large-5-light-chandelier-chrome-prvw-vr~121584705) And for a more industrial feel to match the orange, the Diner Collection [Industrial Diner Style Light [(https://www.houzz.co.uk/products/industrial-1-light-diner-style-wall-light-copper-finish-prvw-vr~112396566) [Alton Industrial Cluster Pendant[(https://www.houzz.co.uk/products/alton-industrial-style-7-light-ceiling-cluster-pendant-copper-prvw-vr~124908454) This stretches across the room with hooks and looks beautiful. Hope this helps! Kind Regards, The Litecraft Team

Not heard of Millboard previously so I looked it up and it seems to be intended for decking. Cedar is good for external cladding, or you could also consider Larch, but both will need some protection and maintenance of course, although I knew a builder who liked using Nordic Larch for cladding extensions and he said it needed very little to protect it from the elements, Andy

Ah thanks! I’ve never heard of it.. will check it out!
