How to tie open-plan kitchen/ living/ dining room areas together?
Comments (13)I agree with many of the suggestions above, especially that there's too much furniture in the living room. You're going to hate me for saying this but I think there's too much clutter and busyness overall for such a small space. I'd radically reduce the number of pictures and knick-knacks in both rooms – especially the living room – and move the ones you keep to less prominent places. I'd also take the coat rack and cookery bookshelves out completely, and replace the busy parquet flooring with either not-busy plank laminate or a simple-patterned or solid rug. Finally, I like trees but that spidery palm tree is hideous IMO....See MoreBringing it all together
Comments (9)I think you can defiantly achieve that look. I quite like the banana shapes sofa as I think it gives an extra dimension to the room I think if it was me I'd maybe remove the TV unit and everything else then play with placing the sofa since its your biggest piece you can place everything else around it. I'd definitely keep the window free from obstruction though. Especially if your wanting dark colours you could benefit from all the light you can get. I think artwork can be so expensive and if your anything like me you never find exactly what you want so letting the kids so it is a way to rectify that. I actually really like your room I think it will look fab...See MoreDo you prefer 'open-plan' or 'broken plan'?

Comments (8)Thanks! I know how your sister feels Sonia! I thought I’d pre-thought about most things and had ideas and like I’d been planning it for a year before we actually got plans drawn up! And then they throw questions at you, you hadn’t considered! Will have a proper look at those colours you’ve suggested once I’m on my laptop! It’s so exciting tho Ellie right?? I love it! I’ve actually chosen most things I think, almost before the builders were here! Lol! Our kitchen got ordered this week so unfortunately due to a summer rush won’t be here till the 17th Oct Instead of the 2-3 week lead time there had been for months previously! I do love the green in the first pic - can’t find out what it is tho, does anyone know?? I think we’d get the same effect as the sun shines on that wall in the afternoon/evening (taken just now!) Also will have a delay for the floor as the concrete needs 75 days to dry out before they’ll put down the latex prior to the LVT! Doh! 1 day/mm!! Did not know that before! Ha! But overall we’ve been very lucky and haven’t really had many delays!...See MoreMichele Malone

3 years agoIf you can fit a stove, it really makes a difference but a bigger radiator helped in a different house. Excuse the mess but this is our stove. There wasn’t room for a standalone one but this gives incredible heat.
