Hello. I am a designer in North Carolina and some of my clients fell in love with this entry console chest. Can you share any additional info?
Thanks, Alys

Hello

Unfortunately this piece was the clients own which they had procured a long time before we worked with them.

I am sorry that I cannot be of more assistance on this occasion.

Kind Regards

Mia

Thanks for responding to soon, all! To respond to each in turn: Daisy - I definitely agree regarding the chair - just need someone to take the thing off me. The headboard is an issue as it holds the bed together so not sure how smooth replacing it could be. It seems all agree regarding the pictures so down they will come. Leaning towards the curtains, too. Thank you! Jen - The feature wall and knitted throw is a common theme so something I'll look to invest in! Just a case of what way to go with the feature wall and how to have the other walls tied in to it. Hmmm Minnie - as always, thank you. I actually looked at Hague blue but thought it was just too dark, although I'm torn again after seeing that picture. I might get some samples, as I like the contrast and it goes with a few ideas I saw. I had been thinking about a colour more like the one at the top of this post (which I can't move for whatever reason), which isn't too far from Hague blue (not sure of the exact colour right now but recall seeing it). I assume you'd move the bed closer to the window to allow more space with the drawers being by the door. The table by the bed wasn't the best as it's so high and the bed is rather low - to be honest I'll likely move the console table out the room at some point; not decided yet. I need to get a pendant light but figured I'd get it once doing the bigger things - the current light shade is looking very sorry for itself. A mirror does need inserting (something my girlfriend reminds me of weekly) - would you say a full-length onejust to the right of the wardrobe entrance? Your colour scheme - with the greys and mustards - sounds good, too!

Oh man, I decided to brave Ikea on a Saturday and sad to say that Martin was quite uncomfortable! I mean, the seat itself was fine and nothing a nice seat cushion couldn't fix, but the back rest felt like its designed so that you'll have to sit perfectly upright to be remotely comfortable in it. I suppose its good for posture if nothing else, but not something one wants for a dining chair! The Svenbertil was a lot more comfy for about the same size, though a bit more expensive. I was thinking of perhaps a couple of smaller side tables instead of an actual coffee table. Not sure yet. I think I'll have to wait until the sofa gets delivered and I have it in the space before I can really decide. Generally not a fan of glass table surfaces as I can get a bit obsessed over fingerprints and glass just attracts them! I really liked this coffee table when I saw it in the showroom, then I saw the price tag. Yeah, visually on the plan I don't think the long table would work that well in terms of the flow of the space, and I think I'm going to stick with a round one. Surprisingly, the space seemed to be able to fit a D100+/- 5cm relatively well after I folded some towels and tape out the area. The Ikea one you pointed out seems ideal in terms of size, but being all white, seemed a tad boring... though I suppose I could have different chairs to mix it up a bit... a pair in white and a pair in oak. Hmm...

is there anyway to make this an actual living room?

I don’t think you can afford to slice off any of the space to make a corridor so, you have one main problem... walkthrough space. By pushing all the furniture up against the walls, your basically creating one nice big corridor and you only really have one other option .. to walk around the edge of the room rather than through the middle of it. The sofas are fine but try creating a "L" pointing at the corner with the TV and then a huge rug with textures and lots of warm colours would create a focus and pull the room together. I would try to connect the "boiler" cupboard to the fireplace with colour, pick a medium grey from the stone to paint the entire wall and cupboards on that side of the room. Let the stone textures and your nick knacks "pop" out to create interest, some contrast shelfing with horizontal lines stretching across the other side of the stone feature fireplace, would create some visual rhythm. best of luck :)

Hi Emma, there are a few considerations required before coming up with a solution. The budget is crucial, as moving the whole bathroom, as Sam suggested, (which would be my solution if money is no object), would require moving the soil pipe and changing its connection to the sewer. So the position of the existing soil pipe is important. Is it on the inside or outside of the house? Outside would be best! Where does it connect to the sewer pipe? Is there a manhole near to the existing soil pipe? What type of floor joists have been used and their sizes? Which direction do the joists go? If you want to move the whole en-suite, then the joists would ideally need to run across from the garden room wall, in line with the label Bedroom One, so that the shower and basin waste pipes can go under the floor between the joists. You could put the shower on a plinth and box off the waste, but it is not ideal, it makes the space look cramped with lots of boxing running along the floor/ wall. Then you need to know what space is like in the area directly above where the en-suite will be positioned for electrical installation, air extraction, lighting etc. a flat roof or eaves junctions are is far more difficult to work with. Putting the en suite on the wall backing the stairs allows you to put the bed facing the front of the house or on the wall where the en-suite is now. Hope this is not too confusing, but anything can be achieved if you have the money! Best wishes vernon
