High ceilings with or without high doors or extra high Windows
Comments (10)Definitely agree that tall windows and doors are an asset, and a fantastic selling point for later on if you decide to rent or sell. They keep with the feeling of space, which feels luxurious. The only thing is, with our Australian summer and all, keeping light out, depending on the direction the windows/doors face, may be of concern. Incase you were considering this point early on, too, just wanted to let you know there are block out long drop (240mm) roller blinds available. Best of luck with your decision - can't wait to see the end result!...See MoreHigh timber ceilings, timber kitchen and trim - needs modernising!
Comments (14)Depending on your budget I’d paint the cabinetry, replacing the doors if you can afford to and just painting them if the budget is tight. Just a thought, maybe it’s possible to fill that detailing in the doors to make them appear flat once painted. Not sure if it’s possible. It’d be a shit of a job but then you’d have solid wooden doors. And new handles. The same with the tiles. Paint is a cheaper option. New tiles would give a better finish. Remove the window valance. Perhaps resurface the benchtop with a product like rustoleum. Replacing the oyster light with something more contemporary. Open shelving can look great and lighten a space but think about whether this compromises your storage capacity. Everything will be on show. I think if you paint the cabinets then the floor won’t look so bad as there will be separation between the similarly coloured floor and ceiling. Cork is great in kitchens as it’s soft so it’s easy on your legs and back and forgiving if you drop things. It’s also making a comeback, as are timber ceilings. I would choose soft flooring for a kitchen over hard flooring. Kitchen floor tiles are a pet hate of mine. In my next build we’re putting rubber or cork in the kitchen. You’d struggle to put a double oven next to the fridge as it’s a thoroughfare. You’d also lose your pantry. Is two side by side 60cm ovens a possibility where your oven currently is?...See MorePaint Colour for high walls and ceilings
Comments (2)I would love to see some photos of the house, interior and exterior. Where are you located and are there plenty of windows? Do you know what timber the floorboards are? If there is lots of direct sunlight onto the floorboards, this will reclect colour onto the walls so choosing the right "white" will be important. Did you want the one colour to go through the entire house? Are you wanting to keep the feel of the high ceilings or would you prefer to have them feel lower in some rooms?

Comments (2)Hi MB, thanks for your comment. It's a good idea, unfortunately because there will be skylight in the bathroom I think it might bring too much light into the bedroom if not covered? thx...See Morejbantick
