Bi-folds our ceiling lantern for more light?
Comments (1)This stuff is out of my depth but I did have a few thoughts. Agree with you about light worries especially for the rooms behind. I think I’d want as much glazing as possible and evenly spaced too. How wide is it? Because I’ve seen photos of multiple openings of French doors where the repetition really looked good. I would also go with repeated sky lights too. Another thing to consider is that fixed windows let lots of light in since the frames are much slimmer. Anyhow, you’re more likely to get good suggestions on here if you post dimensions and photos. :)...See MoreDesign Dilemma - bedrooms in our bedroom
Comments (3)Good morning, It may be worth measuring the room and uploading a plan, so that Houzz designers can properly assess the room and provide an accurate layout for you. Get some measurements of walls, windows and doors, as well as the ceiling height....See MoreWhat floor plan would work best for our guest bedroom
Comments (12)Wow- so overwhelmed by the replies and all of the help, couldn't appreciate it any more. Emily- thank you so much for your post. It's currently pushed against a wall which works fine but would prefer it to have access either side for a couple if possible :) Ace your space- I really like the layout that way, there is a radiator under the window (i should have said) so would need moving which think may be a bigger job. It's something i would consider though and hadn't though of it that way. Jonathon- I am in love with the pegs they would be perfect. Your room layout is my dream just didn't know if it would be achievable. I have a king size bed at the moment but it's a very big frame so much bigger than the standard measurements so if i turn it your way there is about a 8 cm gap to the shorter wall so it needs replacing. Man about the house- love the layout and interesting to get more than one view thank you so much All- can i please be cheeky and ask another question. I think my issue is a standard size double would fit e.g 190cm long but when i look at standard sites e.g John Lewis, Next, Dreams all of the beds seem to have a frame which is 208-210cm which would just be too long. Do you know where I can find a frame that is 190cm? I would have loved a flip storage bed but recognize that will be too long so I am open to any bed. Budget for bed up to about £700 ish. Less if obviously great and means more money to spend on the rest of room....See MoreDining room lighting dilemma
Comments (17)I'm following this with interest; we bought a 16th century cottage and I'm still struggling with its peculiarities. Personally, I quite like this and I think it could work in your space if you can find a way to fit it: https://www.jim-lawrence.co.uk/barchester-double-pendant-light/barchester-double-pendant-light-in-antiqued-brass-3312ab?returnurl=%2fbarchester-double-pendant-light%2f In fact, I'm considering buying all my light fittings from Jim Lawrence, I just love their products! If your husband doesn't like to see the bulb (I don't either!!) you should look for lights that have lampshades with diffusers. Or, as a wild card, maybe consider something like this, which I think could also work in a cottage setting despite being a LED lamp. https://www.bespokelights.co.uk/shop-by-type-c4/ceiling-hanging-lights-c29/forest-modern-black-led-linear-ceiling-pendant-with-antique-brass-lamp-holders-p18296...See Morenicpdav2001
