Need to help to re-design/redecorate bedroom
Comments (9)With this being a guest room, I'd go for something light and simple on the walls but bring some colour and texture through with accessories. You seem to have alot of storage in the space, i'd de-clutter these and throw out some of the wardrobe's that you have. Think about having a storage bed so you can hide some of these away. In your alcove, we'd recommend using this as a dressing area. You could have a mirror on the wall and have a small desk/built in shelf put in. again keep this lightly coloured and the mirror will help reflect light from the windows and lighting you may have. Take a look at our web-site for further deisgn ideas and the different beds that we have available. BoConcept Manchester Bedroom Inspiration...See MoreRe-design of layout - need help!!
Comments (5)I would make the conservatory an integral part of the house - an orangery for instance - this can be connected to your kitchen by knocking that wall down between the two. I would also consider knocking through to the lounge so this becomes an open plan living area. You could have glass pocket doors that let the light in but also enable you to close off when you want some privacy - as the children get older it is important to consider the fact that they will need their own space and you won't want to listen to their music! When considering open plan it's good to think long term - the use of pocket doors enables you to use the space more effectively depending on the situation. The dining room could then become a playroom / cinema room / study area as your children get older. In terms of a fireplace, you could think about a wood burner that doesn't necessarily have a fireplace surround which is quite contemporary and would suit an open plan living area. Hope that help!

Comments (2)Hello Sarah, I would always recommend using a sample board. Often elements, paint colours and fabrics can look lovely in isolation but it's only when you see them together that you can decide if they work. If it works on the board it will work in the room. I'm guessing from your description that your new kitchen will be contemporary and you're wanting a tile or flooring material, for example Karndean, that will zone but not sever the dining area? One idea we've used in the past is to use two similar tiles. If you have dogs, you might find a wood effect tile or something like a mid or dark grey 600mm x 300m would work - matt (and non slip) but not riven. We've used Walls and Floors and Tons of Tiles quite a bit in the past. Regards Amanda...See MoreNeed ideas re design please
Comments (20)Hi Sarah. What a fabulous house you will have! Exciting. Your house has to represent you and I think if you have looked at what you need and you need the utility and pantry I would go ahead with those. I have recently completed a project with a hidden door to the pantry and it is a fabulous feature to have. This does take space from the kitchen itself so it is definitely important to look at exactly what is needed in the visible kitchen area and make sure nothing will need to be sacrificed. How how much space you have is really important so would great to take a look at the actual plans. As a concept planner, we do lots of investigation before designing - looking at your requirements, what works in your room, how you use the space. Looking at multiple options all in 3D so you can truly see how the space will look and feel. Having something like this done for your project will help you no end. Allowing you see the different options for the pantry/laundry area and how much each options gets you in terms of what fits in and the maneuverability of the space. It will also allow you to see If the bathroom is your main and only bathroom then I love the size and use of the space but I too think the wardrobe (bedroom layouts) can be made a little more usable for you. Do you have some plans you can up load with dimensions? All the best, Gina...See More- 4 months ago
