A Simple Design Questions?

Simple for a pro but really stressful for you.

You've got a question about which colour to choose?

Will this look good with what I've currently chosen?

Will this match my carpet?

Will this flooring work- is it safe?

What about dark cabinets - will they make the room look smaller?

How do I start my project?

How do I fill my space with MY personality?

How do I make this look more glamorous?

need help to design simple layout for 40 foot container home

Hi, we have actually built a luxury 4 bedroom container home from scratch. It had a master bedroom, walk in robe, ensuite, laundry, living area, study, bathroom, toilet, alfrsco etc and ended by being quite large. We bought existing containers and converted them. As a builder, we understood the challenges of getting it to comply, but as MB has said, the challenges were huge. The engineering reinforcement and cutting of corten steel with a plasma cutter was a whole new learning curve in practicality. The realities of dealing with condensation /insulation and wiring are another. My strong suggestion to you is to either go through a specialist container builder (there is one in Victoria from memory) or use another method. Here's a piccy of what we did.... Ensuite

Mid-century design experts - Question re bathroom vanity
Q

Is your final photo of the vanity you already have? I also thought adding legs would take it back to the MCM you are after. Would be interesting to know how the silver drawer pull is attached. Not sure about painting it matte black as I thought timber furnishings were more prevalent then, but it's totally your choice. I hope you will post updates as you go. I just love mid-century.

Bathroom renovation - a couple of design questions

Ooh. iI ike the idea of using the green in the niche - would help tie in and integtrate the facing (feature) wall. We're going to stick with a wall faced toilet, but will build out a false wall to the current edge of the bath so that we have an invisible cistern as well as create a void for the niche above. And think you are also right about the continuous bulkhead too. Thank you!
