@sonia yes we are south facing. it's how it would look behind the kitchen cupboards, which are grey gloss. I think it looks fab all round but they have a divider between kitchen and dining area. I had wondered about doing 2 walls the wall opposite the windows (which extends to the tall bank of cupboards but doesn't have too much wall so you wouldn't have too much of a problem if it doesn't quite work and then use shadow white for the patio wall side. my mum reckons that won't work as you don't normally do 2 adjoining feature walls.

Your room looks familiar, have you posted before? Nothing wrong with that, I’ve posted several times! You say you want to keep everything light, so a neutral theme would work. Wallpaper can be daunting so I think choosing paint may be a little easier? Pale walls are great and you can add texture with wood and accessories, and a bit of brown or black always lifts a neutral theme. Love Jules’s dark doors - you can see how effective black can be. Apart from the pale neutrals, I think a soft sage green will go lovely in your room. A very calm and relaxing shade. Here’s a couple of pics which are calm and neutral but with dark accessories and another with sage green walls. DULUX SHADES

Hi honeyry. I don’t think it would look weird having the lawn on the left as it would be more central to the patio. Hope you don’t mind but I took the liberty of doing a quick sketch as well. It still uses the full length of the garden so should keep your footie fan happy 😊. What I do think is that you need more definition to your borders so using a lawn edger to keep grass encroaching on plants/shrubs/trees (see pics). This will keep plants healthy in the long run as they won’t be competing for nutrients. Also added a patio and shed in the top right NW corner. This might be a nice little sitting area in for a morning cuppa, the shed and the addition of some trellis would give you some privacy from the neighbours. Something like this wouldn’t need doing straight away as I’ve kept the basic layout with the path relatively unchanged. Did add a little extra in the way of a little semi circle of hard landscaping in front of the seps. This is just a transition between borders, lawn and patio and could be anything...paving, tiles, cobbles and so on. There are a plenty of plants that are suitable for your garden. The RHS website is a valuable resource when researching. Two that spring to mind which are virtually indestructible (great for stray footballs) are red valerian and buddleia. Both need hacking back to near ground level in late autumn and will grow like the clappers come spring. Be aware that red valerian (also grows well north facing) can be considered invasive in some parts as it self seeds prolifically and usually where you don’t want it like in the walls or in between paving slabs but it’s easy enough to pull out. For improving the lawn I’m sure there are plenty of tips and tutorials online. I myself have a dog that makes a right mess of the grass. I’ve recently purchased this stuff https://www.envii.co.uk/shop/neuturine/ but I’ve yet to test it so can’t vouch for it and its a little expensive for what it is. Supposed to to change the Ph of the soil so that urine doesn’t burn it (or something scientific like that 🙂). Just hope it works! Here‘s my sketch and pics.

There are literally an infinite amount of ways you can decorate this wall. But first of all, you need to create a plan, what you want to be on that wall. It is an open space and needs a cohesive idea throughout . take a picture of the whole wall, make a few copies and draw on it what and where do you like to see. you can visually separate different areas of the space and create zones. you can add panelling to the whole wall: you can fill the whole wall with pictures and paintings and creaate a gallery wall: you can add some shelving, some lighting, some pictures, decorative baskets: you can create a shelving wall: https://riverbespoke.com/gallery/ add decorative lighting: you can add unusual art, travel finding, children drawings, your art creatiions, objects that have sentimental values: create an unussual art display: gather all ideas that you like and draw or photoshop them on the whole wall and then install it when happy with the result
