Very interesting.

The north is very important to get that natural light, if you have the money to do that two floor void, then heaps of natural light can flood into the space. If that is not possible than lighting, colour, windows and doors can help. The connection from house to garden is just as important as we tend to spend a equal amount of time outdoors if designed to the conditions, and don't forget the garden, that done well can extend the house from inside to outside rooms to garden in one big space, with paths and focal points to make it an experience to be in. You need to seek professional advice from someone who will help you understand the requirements from council, the building process, and the cost associated with those processes, and the best way to make the available funds work to your best advantage. There are very few clients who have unlimited budget and in an ideal world where you are lucky to start from scratch and design the house of your dreams, twisting to take advantage of views, light and site conditions, renovating an existing house is normally full of compromises. Renovation is always more expensive than building new, even twice as expensive depending on the house. Ideally the bedrooms should be grouped together with living to the opposite end. That may make sense if the children are young but does not make sense with older children even the ones studying and still living at home, or you are planning on renting out a room. Another factor is length of time at the house, is this a forever house or short term stay, that also should figure into the design. A good Architect Interior Designer is worth their weight in gold, and will be able to take you from this stage to the built form with ease. Seek one who can draw in 3D as that takes out a lot of guess work. good luck

Hello Tom. Your apartment looks lovely in white, however, white has the effect making whatever is on it really stand out when there isn't very much else in white, and therefore a bit disjointed (that's why your kitchen area looks so nice). To overcome this, either add more white elements to the furniture/furnishings (eg. you could paint the bookcase white), or add more colour to the walls. I was originally going to recommend White Duck, but you do have a lot of browns, so the Hogs Bristle (I know, but it is popular for a reason), will help to tie everything up a bit more. You might also like to consider the use of wallpapers on some walls (make great backdrops behind beds), as well as bolder/larger artwork or a cluster of smaller pieces, soft furnishings to tie in with the wall colours, as well as other touches that introduce a "feature colour" throughout. Darker shades to complement/contrast against Hogs Bristle will also do well behind the bookcase in the lounge, as well as behind the beds, some areas of your kitchen - with accessories in the same colour way (and corresponding complimentary colours).
