Comments (17)Hi, before you get the sledgehammer out, there’s a house tour on Stories where they extended but kept the original wall and window as a sort of huge serving hatch. It looks amazing! Just go to Stories above and it’s the first story. Worth a look!...See MoreHow to set up furniture in an open plan living room inc. 65” wall tv?
Comments (2)We are buying new furniture to fit the layout but struggling to decide how to set up without wasting space, the pillars in the middle of the room make it tricky.

Comments (28)I agree with everyone saying that open plan is good if you have a dedicated enclosed space for a snug or second living room. My son is an architect and he has seen a major change with people requesting ways to separate spaces to revert back to a more traditional layout. What about privacy for those moments when kids bring their friends over, they really do not want parents listening and being in their space! Designing a space for a growing family means trying to future proof the footprint. No matter how quiet appliances are meant to be, they will end up irritating you. We have a coffee machine, extractor fan, washing machine, tumble dryer, microwave, kettle in our current kitchen and are lucky enough to be able to move the kitchen into a 10sqm study to create a separate utility and then build a rear extension with a kitchen / diner / snug. We also have a ground floor loo and living room on the other side of the house. The noise of appliances we find exceptionally intrusive, partitions and half height walls may help reduce the noise but won’t eliminate them. Have you also thought about where you will store the kids toys, books etc and how easily you will be able to hide food preparation and washing etc from visitor?
