Beautiful bathroom! Would really like to know where you got the stone-look soap pump from. Could you please share? Thank you!

POLL: Soap or hand wash?
Q
Comments (13)
Soap and hand wash are simply different names. Here in the UK no one ever calls it anything but soap - whether they're referring to the solid or the liquid. Personally, I find the bars last longer, although the liquid lathers more easily.

How important is it to recycle, really?
Q
Comments (42)
There should be no such thing as waste. Everything is part of a cycle, which should not be broken. And we ARE part of the planet - which gives us our life and can easily take our life away! Even if you have children, it is possible to minimise the need to recycle. Think about value, quality and ethics rather than quantity. Start by not buying things that are not required to keep you alive and healthy; especially things that are not 'life-supporting' or that alienate you from the natural world. Think carefully and plan; - don't be feather - blown along by the mindless wind of the western world... Such a policy saves you money, or will help reduce your need to work (or exploit the planet by being part of this dangerous, unsustainable game called 'economic growth, no matter the cost'). Of course, being a vegan or vegetarian will really help, as will preparing and eating real food - rather than buying expensive 'rubbish' food from supermarkets or take-aways. You will have better nutrition, and it will save you time and money! Of course the by-products of the food you have eaten are an essential part of the ecological cycle and should not be incinerated or flushed away; they should be aerobically composted and returned to recreate soil fertility. If you can, try growing your own food organically. Then enjoy the extra taste, vitamin and mineral content! Paper or cardboard can be composted, as can vegetable trimmings. We cannot and should not attempt to evade the responsibility we all have to close the cycle. I have a neighbour (the same age as me) who cannot fit her fortnightly rubbish into her weelie-bin, yet I need not put out my bin for a whole year (and then it mainly contains types of plastic packaging that cannot be taken to the recycling centre). If you set out to live lightly on the planet by using recycled items or by trying to buy only good quality essential items (and mend them when they go wrong), there is less need to discard and waste the energy and resources invested in our purchases. As far as clothing (assuming you cannot make your own) is concerned, buying good quality, then not getting it needlessly dirty (by wearing an apron or overall) and of course not washing your clothes to death - are sensible policies which save water, energy and waste. Drink water, rather than be ripped off by buying rubbish in a can or bottle. Plain water is much better for your internal organs and keeping you healthy than complicated concoctions. Maybe filter the water and/or boil off the chlorine using your kettle first. If you want to avoid the hormones/antibiotics etc in tap water, then find an uncontaminated source. Most of the tap water we pay for is wasted - (it just ends up down the drain having not even done anything useful) - because we do not have spray nozzles or sensor taps. In our 1970's autonomous dwelling I fitted foot controls (used on trains) to the taps and you only pressed when you needed a flow. We also used mist-spray nozzles. And you do not need to wet your toothbrush as you have saliva in your mouth, - just rinse it after use! A well-designed waterless toilet (sadly its not easy to find out how to build one, as all the books give completely rubbish information) will cut your toilet water use to zero, other than for washing your hands. Collect water from your roof and use it in the garden and for other tasks, (we filtered it and used it for drinking in our 1970's house - tests by the water authority showed it was as clean as well water). By moving gradually in such a direction, we can change the world towards what is valuable for a sustainable life on this very special, tiny jewel of a planet. Even small steps are positive and valuable.

Help need to design/decorate my flat!

Hi Hu, Just looking through the images you've uploaded and it's got a very masculine/bachelor pad feel - not a bad thing by the way - in fact the opposite it's a good key theme. I am just trying to work out if you want to go all out on the theme or if you are trying to soften it. As you have a lot of dark tones in the living space I would opt for blinds in a neutral shade - maybe a white large slat venetian or white tape blind to keep some smooth straight lines and structure. Curtains....depending on look you could opt for a stripe (diagonal) or a plain colour like a beige (or linen as someone else has suggested to introduce a softer lighter fabric). I think the current grey rug clashes against the brown sofa, so adding in a palette of beige, brown and even charcoal/black could work really well (see below images for rug ideas). As the space is so large, open and bright I would look at adding in a nice coffee table, this will balance out the corner sofa - and create a relaxing zone (see other attached images on how layout, furniture and colours could work with the brown sofa). A nice wall mounted unit under the tv would be a great way to keep the space open and tidy away all the wires from the PS and other technology you have. I would move the large lamp to either go in the right corner behind the sofa or to the left of the radiator. Love the style of the bathroom, add in some display pump bottles (maybe the amber style ones) for hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, bubble bath etc and some peacock blue or mustard towels as well as either a small real plant or artificial to go on the worktop behind the toilet and that room is done. Kitchen wise - it's very modern industrial chic which I really like - under the wall cupboards are they hanging rails? I'm intrigued to know. All the best Charlie @ The Kitchen Lady UK www.thekitchenladyuk.co.uk

Bathroom renovation
Q
Comments (9)
Personally I think the current colour on the wall probably looks yellow in electric light and unflattering in the bathroom. I like the idea of having green walls to connect with the rural outlook but I think you have chosen the wrong green. Given the floor is bold I think you can make a bolder choice of wall colour and I think you should choose a more earthy green. I would choose a colour like Bancha from Farrow and Ball, I would add white framed pictures to the wall in order to balance the deep wall color with the paler suite and tiles. I would add more earthy elements to the decoration such as a wood duck board and raffia blinds mounted on the walls above the window just below ceiling height. I think house plants will also help bring the outside in.
