Comments (2)It is important to think about the actual space you are decorating the room looks relatively cosy so warm colours (reds, oranges etc) will bring it in more yes it will make it cosy but may start to make it feel too compact !!! Cooler colours will help to push the room out but predominantly they can look cold and are used a lot in bathrooms to help maximise the space I suggest something like amonite by farrow and ball...See MoreWith a blank canvas, how would you lay out your open plan living area?
Comments (18)I had a similar design quandary - hunt for OnePlan on Houzz. She has a sliding scale of design charges, and we paid for a couple of hours design work. She came up with several designs for us, and we were able to make some changes which she incorporated into the final sketch. We're currently getting quotes for the actual build....See MoreMain bedroom - blank canvas
Comments (18)What a lovely room! If you do go neutral, then any colour can be added as a highlight, and all blues go very well with that greige coloured wardrobes. I’ve done my bedroom quite Country twee with Sharpes wardrobes in stone, walls in Dulux Egyptian Cotton and a brushed brass bed. I chose white bedroom furniture from The Cotswold Company. I’ve used pink highlights to tie in with the Laura Ashley curtains. I’m not saying you should do the same, just that mixing furniture can look really good. Good luck with whatever you choose....See MoreGarden blank canvas what to do?
Comments (9)Hi Tiago Silva I would think of ways of breaking the space looking down the garden with planting - currently you look straight down it with nothing of interest and to break up what you are seeing. It would be great when you have the hot tub etc at the bottom for it to be partly hidden by planting and foliage. Create what I call 'transparent height' - planting that blocks your view quite a bit, but still has gaps through it where you can see exciting and tantalizing hints of things further down the garden. Stories, journeys and a bit of mystery all make for a great garden and it would also create the 'two' garden areas/rooms feel that Emily suggests. Don't be afraid of wide (0.5 - 1.0m+) curving beds - most people run small thin beds down the side which look boring and don't have enough space for the plants to grow properly. Having larger beds also means there are loads of low maintenance shrubs you can plant that you can leave just to grow, instead of having to cut them back all the time to keep them to their space. Take a look at this Houzz story - it really demonstrates what I mean as regards the design, although you would use more low maintenance shrubs. https://www.houzz.co.uk/magazine/garden-tour-clever-curves-bring-beauty-to-a-modest-outdoor-space-stsetivw-vs~84375480...See Moreminipie
