Guest bathrooms - to go wild or to play it safe?
Q
Comments (12)
I still want to kill my DH over the guest bathroom décor. I wanted an "Italian vampire raises from its tomb" theme: large black tiles for floor and some walls, the shower and rest of the walls in these superb handmade glazed Italian mosaic tiles I found, similar to this: I had my eyes on this black high-gloss bathroom vanity, with red toilet seat - it would've been glorious!! I paid for everything, came home excited with samples and... disaster: hubby went ...red, he called his brother and mother, even my sister, as reinforcements, and started the attack! Apparently, it was 'too scary', too much Dracula or kitschy brothel like (they couldn't decide and made me wonder how do they know what a brothel bathroom looks like), too "dark and gory" and they were all "genuinely horrified", as the guests would've been (in their opinion) ... boring people.... Anyway, I went back with hubby to the bathroom shop, to find "light and classic" and, as a joke, I showed him the 'swimming pool' glass mosaic - he liked it and, as they say, the rest is history. So now we have a nice, practical and totally boring guest bathroom, that apparently doesn't horrify the guests (just me!)

POLL: Yay or nay - open plan kitchens?
Q
Comments (206)
We are often approached by clients who are creating an open plan kitchen, dining and living area. To overcome some of the issues we make cabinetry which can hide away the usual clutter found in a busy kitchen. Bi-fold and pocketing doors are great in this instance as ovens and even sinks can be hidden away, making the cabinetry seem more like a piece of furniture than a kitchen. Our clients love being able to change the look of a space in an instance! It is crucial to make sure you choose your appliances carefully, i.e. a quiet dishwasher and a good extractor are of huge benefit here. As long as the space is thoughtfully planned there is no reason that it shouldn't work functional and aesthetically.

Tanks all so much for these amazing ideas!! I think once I have implemented these the overall look will work - I just need to picture the final result as I do each bit separately. @south Wales - I had considered grass but the front of the house is covered by a huge oak tree canopy in the summer, the tree would probably dry everything out. It blocks most of the direct sunlight out completely. Do you think grass is still achievable? @suesykes - yours looks amazing, is that a rhododendron I can spot? @michaeldbutler - I used an iPad app called color effects @sorayasohal - thanks for your great ideas, I am very keen to use a couple of potted plants in front of the pillars. I just need to make sure they don't get stolen! @arthur road - many thanks for this excellent list, I hadn't really considered using a variety of different plants as the bed is small, but it's a great idea! @ensign - I wanted to use a taller tree each side of the pillars but the drive is on a slope and it might look a bit lopsided. I wonder if there is a way I could correct this by digging out and leveling under each pot or would this look weird? @amanda hunter - it's a great tip looking at local house styles! Mine is quite modern (1996) and is situation in a lovely village with quite a lot of older style houses with authentic wood doors etc. sadly this is a composite door and I added this as the wood door which was on the house was in a terrible state, so my options are limited to having it sprayed a suitable color. So far I think I will: 1) add flagstone path 2) lower globe buxus type pots in front of each pillar 3) paint door (still wanted red) 4) use some of the plants recommended here and go to my local garden centre. The porch also has built in flower beds flanking the steps so once flowers are in there it will look good. The darkness of the north facing house sheltered by a large oak tree is an issue for me, the house looks great but looks dark and gloomy, hence I don't want to have a door that looks too dark and dull, unless it was black. The company who will be spraying the door can do all farrow and ball colors, so I am going to check out some more heritage colors as per Laura and other suggestions. I'm going to get some blue and red samples this week!!

This is wonderful! Where do you start...? Space: a great use of space, creation of more space and a contemporary relaxed designed space. We particularly like the reserved approach to light fittings and embracing the natural light - how does it look in the evening/night? Well done to all the project team!
