Hi Karen,

On the left (lower part of the extension) the height is around 2.9m high (external dimensions) and 4.6 deep (projection from the main building's rear wall)

On the right part, the ridge is 4.4m high and 3.2m deep (projection from the main building's rear wall)

Total footprint of the extension is 31m2

Advice please curtains and blinds

Hi Diana, Whenever I specify Roman Blinds I recess them into the window and put dress curtains on each side (not functioning, purely for show and to soften the look) The issue I have is that the failure rate on Romans is very high, the pull string mechanism is very delicate and can jam up after regular use. Given the choice I would not specify them. My preferred solution is to inset plantation shutters into each window and then dress the outside with a simple pair of dress curtains each side or a modern swag over the head. I have done this on traditional interiors and ultra modern and they always look good. I never have any ongoing issues and the light quality the blades give is wonderful. (I prefer a large blade and avoid the central pole in favour of a hidden mechanism.) Another interesting feature of plantation shutters is that in the evening you push the shutters up for privacy and this deflects the heat back into the room, it saves a lot of money !! Hope that helps, Martin www.angel-martin.com www.3dinteriorillustration.co.uk

What colour to accent the room??
Q

Hi Chris. I went for a very similar dark grey in my dining room too and opted for pale ivory damask curtains. Only reason I went for ivory is that the white gloss on the architraves and dado rail has yellowed over the years so they matched quite well...and they were a sales bargain:) To be fair I only did a quick tart up hence not refreshing the woodwork. Your dining room gets a lot more light than mine and there’s a lot of green reflected from the plants outside so considering your furniture I might opt for a very pale washed linen for a natural soft look or if you want to be brave with colour I think a dupion silk or velvet can look very opulent. I think there are lots of colours that could work well. I like the jewel colours like teal or emerald green, fuschia pink or burnt orange, perhaps yellow even. I opted for a natural green as an accent colour in our dining room, seemed to work well with the charcoal grey and ivory. Here’s some more inspo pics:

How to tile this step?
Q
Comments (11)
Many thanks for all the feedback. So the plot thickens. I took off the "skirting" and there is basically just a void underneath for some pipework - images attached for reference. I'm assuming in order to tile this i'd probably need to box in the area first. Probably screw a baton into the floor or something and affix a bit of wood (ply?) On a separate point i wonder if it's worth bringing the level out into the main hallway a little? Edging on the step i agree is a must - either a tile edging or the oak nosing i think would both work. Thanks again for the feedback.

Should I keep original internal doors?
Q

Sorry I haven't read the comments (too many) but if you are considering keeping them, I'd send them off and get them dipped. If they come back in one piece then go from there. It may be they come back with a lot of damage, some panels may need to come out - but you can always update with fluted glass panels etc. If they come back and were full of filler etc and bad condition then sand, fill, sand again and paint a dark shade. You can make them look beautiful if you want to. It may be they come back in good condition! In which case you can stain and keep natural. I'd probably replace all the hardware though.
