Hi Tuffkins20, we used a pressure treated, joinery quality softwood for this project. It was spray painted in our factory using a European exterior paint also.

Hi there, I'm planning to build some similar fencing next year for my garden although won't require as much as yourself I did some pricing up. Just using the upright batons which will be screwed to the wall, no framing, horizontal slats fixed to the uprights and no paint or stain finish. I think I worked it out at about £40 per 6ft x 6ft panel although it could have been for 2 (haven't got my notes to hand). This was using tanalized timber from Wickes. All depends on how they'll be supported. You could ask a local joiner or landscaper for a quote as they will likely have trade discounts but will charge for labor costs.

What materials can be used for creating futuristic textures on walls?
Q

Interesting question. I think it depends on the budget of the film or tv production and it’s the job of the set decorator to be able to source materials and and be artistically creative within that budget. Might be that parts of some sets were made from cardboard, polystyrene, foam or other cheap material and then spray painted to look the part. Also a lot of sets, especially these days, are computer generated and the actors and a few props are green screened onto the CGI image. Your cafe sounds like a great project. For futuristic panels I would suggest a stronger material such as plywood or MDF and have someone who is handy with a jigsaw to cut them in the required shapes, stick to the wall with strong adhesive and then paint. Would love to see a before and after of your cafe:)

Extending an old Barn- Please any advice on type of material to use .

Provided the barn isn't listed, materials will depend on if you need PP or not. You may or may not have any PD rights depending on when the original conversion was done and under what authority (PP or PD). If you have PD rights I think you have to use similar materials. If you need PP the LPA may specify materials or require you to get them pre approved. Also, there will be other differences if you are in a conservation area or AONB.

Materials for balustrade and terrace on a mid century renovation?
Q

Wow, Jonathan thank you for that, some lovely ideas! Unfortunately the builder starts on Tuesday and we have planning permission for the existing plans, but I do appreciate it (and wish I had come here earlier!) The elevated terrace would be lovely, but it's right next to our neighbours house (oddly, the largest windows look directly at the house next door). Our architect is local and doesn't really have opinions about design / aesthetics, and is more at the functional end of the spectrum, so asks what we want and then makes it work technically. Hence needing a little inspiration! I like the simple metal railings that have been shared, and the idea of colour matching to the windows, thank you! A perforated metal screen is very interesting and not something I knew existed. I did a quick google and only found very ornate or very industrial examples - has anyone seen anything like this used in a mid century context? We aren't being slaves to it, and are happy to go modern/MCM. But not a fan of an extremely severe 'industrial' look. The flooring I am completely baffled by - wood is nice but very slippery. Perhaps some sort of external tiles, so it feels like living space? Maybe to match the grey of the windows / railings, or is that too much? Thanks hugely!
