How can I update while keeping black granite benchtop?
Comments (26)just viewed your imagined dilemma - the jade colour of doors - are they a laminate - if they aren't - yes if you desperately need a change - have white laminate (like the whole neighbourhood). but if the jade cupboards are definitely laminated I would not replace - for the jade is stunning. Furthermore, you would make a good move to extend the black high-gloss laminate to those floor-level cupboard doors which currently have a wood strip (which the previous owner did (I presume)I would suggest you have a single black strip definitely 2inches high inserted as a line in that area. (this job must be done by an experienced laminator - to perfection (this will eliminate the eye-sore strips of wood.( but it must be applied as a continuous band (from a to b) - not bits - Furthermore, the high-gloss black floor-boards will look good so close - meeting each other. I NOTE YOU WOULD DO WELL WITH A LARGISH SLEEK KITCHEN SINK ( YOU SEE BY DOING THESE SMALL CHANGES YOU ARE GETTING A WHOW KITCHEN. Am I imagining the green which seems to extend to the ceiling line is not cupboards up there if that is so do not take the green up to the cornice - the cupboards are the feature not the walls - the cornice in that room should be taken out - having the plastered wall reaching the ceiling without cornice. Your kitchen cupboards are the feature.(it would be good to paint upper walls and ceiling. Just "off white" I am reluctant to tell you the kitchen window should be wider as the kitchen has a message but the window is like a poor relative. If you carry-out these changes - the kitchen should be free of everything else - no utensils on the stove, nothing on benches or on top of other areas - the colour and impact - that is all that is needed (plus it has become modernised) - despite your belief that white is in - maybe in hospitals. Good Luck...See MoreWhite aluminium windows or black?
Comments (9)Are the windows available in Woodland grey or a grey colour close to Woodland grey? I'd still frame them in white. You do see through black but for my posts and deck railings I went Woodland grey instead of black which I find too heavy looking now. Against the foliage in my backyard the Woodland grey really "disappears". My patio roof is also Surf mist....See MoreFurniture re-arrangement advice
Comments (16)Hi Kerry, I love the look of your home. Very warm and inviting, snug but roomy. In the living/dining anyway. The other space is a very wide passage is it not! Let me check I have this right: You use the entry at the back of the carport between the living room & bedroom which comes into the room in question. The kitchen is entered off the living room and opens onto the 'passage' room. Opposite that are stairs with the door opening into this room and bathroom which the kids in 2 bedrooms use. SO: how to fix a room that is handy but not quite wide enough to be more than the passage way.... Small uses and small furniture I think is the answer: If you use the large square dining table don't bother with another. If you want another space to sit have just one or two chairs. If you need some of it for study area pop a desk in front of windows at far end near kitchen: it maybe a tad quieter there? I would avoid a TV in there as it is not large enough. If the kids have play-station etc that may work there. Create traffic ways with the furniture: all f't to the right as you walk in (As long as entry door is on the left) but then you need to leave space to move across the room to bath and stairs so another off road! Traffic lights maybe needed if all else fails! If some day down the track you were thinking of renovating the kitchen, would you plan servery and access onto the dining/living room and close off the 'passage' room? That would at least give you one corner for more serious furniture! Hope that helps you and if not we can look further.... Cheers Margot...See Morefront door for weatherboard
Comments (6)I’ve also seen similar doors in Bunnings and at the local door and window supplier (you’ll have one and may need to go seen them, often they have a low internet presence). The current front door doesn’t work with the house even with plain glass. The inspiration fence doesn’t suit your house either. Use plain wood (sometimes called blanks). May even be cheaper and definitely go the darker colour. It will look great with your garden plans. If you have the room set the fence back a bit so you can plant in front. It softens the look particularly for large runs of fencing and protects your paint from the bike handles/shopping bags of passing traffic. Given your situation I’d be asking council for permission to have sections of the fence at 1.8m at the “sides”, then having 1.5m along the front. For plant selection have a look at the Gardening with Angus website. For lots of native plant inspiration have a look on Pintrest (search native Australian gardens)....See MoreKelly Boeing
