This was in 2011, when we just started renovating. Top windows are new (ral7039), walls ral9010. You see the neighbour on the right has bright white, the attached on the left some creamy tan. (Landscaping credits go to previous owner..) Don't have many new photo's, but this was a few months ago, when we had the front door and livingroom window done too (pvc): Lower edge on the wall still needs some paint.. And landscaping hasn't been done yet either, but we did take out the dug in roof tiles.. (plus we're slow renovators LOL no stress)

If you want to update on a budget, then I think painting the walls will help. I think a darker shade would look good, say a coffee or taupe colour maybe? I would paint the shelf the same colour as the walls and then add a plant or two, one hanging down and one spreading up and out. The tiling limits the colour palate, are they pinkish with brown and beige mosaic border? If taupe is not for you, then white walls, wooden shelving and plants would look good. Here’s some ideas

Hi Sarah, You can modify an existing extension, but in your case, as you said, you might need to replace the spanning beam - unless the structural engineer finds a way to extend this, but you will have a column inside the space, which might not be preferable. Full length bifolds, again depends on the structural design. You could probably have them, but not necessarily. There's plenty of design tricks with glazing to ensure it looks great and brings the right purpose. I wouldnt necessarily block the second entrance if I could. Relocating the toilet will be a game changer in my opinion, as it will open up the space even more and allow you to have a living area with dining as well. Also if you are hiring an architect, check with them the option to not extend the current side return, and modify the glazing & layout only, i think there's some potential there too. You can do plenty of awesome things with your space, the key is to have the right people on board. Hope this helps. Cristina.

I think shortening the lounge is a great idea. Could the new kitchen door go through the cupboard in the hall next to the shower room? This would make the new wall nicely balanced with the window in the new dining room. If you want help with visualisations, I offer 10 hours of design work for £250 which gives you a full design and the confidence to proceed with any supplier of your choice. If you want to have a no obligation chat to bounce some ideas around, feel free to get in touch 😊 Emily x

Venting into the garage is a bad idea--if there is an easy punch out to exterior wall or having a carpenter build you a soffit to the exterior wall, you should get it done. To tidy up the area, KristLou's pics are good. Or you can put a bank of wall cabinets at the top. I'd also put some utility lighting under the cabinets.

Even if it is in the garage finish the area and get the dryer vented to the exterior. Try painting or staining the concrete to give a finished floor appearance and invest in more substantial shelving with the right supports. Give yourself some more light and get some tool hangers to get the mop or broom out of the way. Build a rack or shelves to stash the laundry baskets in. look at adding some hanging space. Store the dryer sheets and other odd things in a basket you can easily take off the shelf . Make use of your shelf to store laundry products and return the other stuff back to the garage. Stake this out as your space not a catch all for every thing else in the garage.
