Joinery ideas needed for a tricky corner
Comments (51)Hi there, Big piece of paper time! Write down the dims of the space and list the things you would like it to do: charge devises, put down for hand bag, store of mail, basket ball fixtures, invitations, bills, home management, display of collection of tortious shells....what ever!! Then list all the ideas that seem interesting, marry up the two lists and see what comes out of it! Personally I think a long blank wall is excellent for couch or other furniture to go on and to sit to look out to the garden (not with your back to outlook like so often is planned) Some put down bench, desk arrangement, some cupboards for devises charging and handbags, some shelving for a few book and current pictures etc. Some of each type of space that you need for those items and things on the list. Very important to keep it ladder friendly for manhole too. I love the look of your circle of chairs there and wonder if you want more seating in the room? I love the ideas above that have been posted: very lovely and some quite quirky! Good Luck, stay focused on what you want the area to do! Cheers Margot...See MoreTricky bathroom
Comments (18)to make any specific suggestions we need specific measurements of the whole bathroom and hall cupboard (ignoring the fixtures) and including width and height above the floor of the window and width, height and depth inside both the cupboards (which are likely to include pipes for upstairs plumbing and you may find that there's a removable inspection panel so you can identify what's hidden) ..you mention that the door is very narrow but what is the distance from the wall behind the shower to the front of the cabinet ie what space could the door be enlarged to and still allow about 60-70cm depth cm in the shower location for a vanity or WM ?...See MoreI need help with my ensuite & bathroom design, it's a tricky one!
Comments (10)the biggest challenge is the location of the windows and enlarging the ens without having to rearrange the plumbing too much and, unless you want a bath in the ens and separate toilets my suggestion moves walls to allow for more space while keeping a smaller study and good sized family bathroom, bigger ensuite and more biw .... the area around the flue could be an ideal storage space for an upstairs vacuum cleaner, luggage etc but you should consult a heating specialist to confirm safe ways to enclose the flue and accurate dimensions will depend on how you measure the size of the windows (ie the edge of the window frame or the outside edge of the architraves?) and thickness of old and new walls but something like this could be worth considering...See MoreAdd ensuite bathroom - layout advice!

Comments (9)A second bathroom would be good on the top floor. You could also reconfigure the existing upper floor bathroom. Move the hand basin. Have a door on the hallway side, and close up the existing door from bedroom and put the basin on that side next to the toilet. Then it will be accessible for all occupants without walking through someone’s bedroom....See MoreLynda
