House number

6 years ago

Help! Where do you think the house number should go? I feel like it should be on the flint instead of the door frame.

If on the flint what type of number? I need it to stand out so don't want a slate plaque...

Personally I would have a white Acrylic number plate with black letters and put it on the slate. I think it should be oversized too

Hi miss. To put just right and the best solution for your entrance is very important and we can say dificould to. There is many important facts you should think about ( architecture situacion, your taste and wishes, investition, how strong is the day light etc.) You have two posibilities, chouse and make artistic stained glass before paonting the interior to chouse color of wall on stained glass or second which is more dificould and left to designer of glass less space is to make the project for already colored ambient. If its important for you is great to think input the glasses in triplex glass sistem (stained glass is in the midle of two glasses) to protect them, easy cleaning and get a good U thermo index. You can use one of two diferent technics of stained glass (leaded or "Tiffany"). Leaded glass is very old technic of producing windo glasses and traditionaly used for victorial style. The star of Art Noveu is Tiffay technic. But for the doors and ambient we more prefer artistic glasses in "Tiffany" becouse it is much more strong and delicat look from near position. Special in arabic countries is very popular rich victorian mansions with new "tiffany" stained glasses inside. Any way its my opinion and recomendation to use interior designer or master artist for design of stained glass art to make your project just perfect and you will lather nor regret where you invested the money. I can say you the price for autor unique slech will be from 50EUR. In my studio we normaly offer three diferent skeches which using all information we have (architecture situacion, your wishes and investition fond) to make your wishes come thrue. In case if you will have trubles you just contact me and I can help you with it with pleasure! Kindness regards, Franci Sigmund, owner and CEO of EF ART STUDIO for design and stained glass art.

Since leaving my parents home (many moons ago) in my late teens, I have moved 42 times! I am a 'nester' at heart and hate packing up and moving! Now the wrong side of 50, I have been 5 years in this abode but still see at least one (if not two) moves ahead of me soon!

Name your home!

Living in a rural area, none of the homes are numbered so we had to choose a name for our place. We got together as a family and threw some suggestions about. Eventually it was between 2 and we let the children decide. It was shortly after the first 'Lord Of The Rings' film came out and so the name they plumped for was influenced by that. I'm glad they chose it now as we get so many people commenting what a great address we have, especially paired with our street name - so, we live at 'Rivendell, Devils Highway' which, luckily, is actually as picturesque as it sounds and I think pretty cool

1960s terrace in desperate need of curb appeal!

I think you've had some great suggestions already. I like your original idea of painting the garage door a sage colour which you could then pick up elsewhere with painted planters/window cils. A nice outdoor light above the house number will help to draw focus. Whilst I do generally prefer 3 panel glazed windows I think due to the fact the neighbours either side have ones similar to your current ones I'd go for more or less the same. The only change I'd make is ensuring you mirror the split top window across all of them so it ties in nicely with the top garage windows. A completely new driveway would probably make the greatest difference to the curb appeal. Something that sweeps around towards the door would be nice. You could then plant up the corner patch to help provide some visual interest and depth.

How about in the middle of the glass above the door? Have some number transfer and stick on.

My first instinct is at the top of the door between the glass panels. Such a lovely door deserves a nice metal number in say, chrome for a more modern feel or black wrought iron style for a more traditional look.

My first thought was elegant black numbers on the white horizontal piece above the 3 windows. Not sure if that is called a lintel? I'd also have a black lantern to match.
