Ohhhh...I thought this was a direct reference (all puns intended) to a party room spill that may happen (or may not) on Monday morning. And yes....someone will be yelling for help and no...NO ONE is in this together.

Like others have said, the space looks incredibly bland at the moment. Everything - floors, walls, ceiling, blinds - are all the same colour. If you look at the inspiration pics, there is contrast. The great thing about it is it is truly a blank canvas and you can choose how and where to introduce the contrast to add interest, whether it be rug, wallpaper, art, hall table, plants or whatever. Just one word of caution - I have seen others that have started off with a 'blank canvas' then going on and adding far too many different elements and bits and pieces and it just ends up looking busy and disconnected.

could suggest that you make the extension a separate building connecting via glass or other enclosed walk ways ie: one extending from the passage into the family and another between the kitchen and pantry they only have to be deep enough to stop the gutter from the original house touching the new house which could have amazing sloping roofs and high ceilings. I also notice that I haven't marked a laundry, that shouldn't be too difficult. You could consider extending the carport along the boundary which could include a laundry, WC within a pool house for the NEW Pool. Many ideas as many ways to do things cheers PS: do you want to share where the house is, must be one of the wine country areas in , guessing SA,VIC,Hunter Valley

I like the first floor plan with the sink and dishwasher next to stove. With the cabinetry plan the dishwasher is right in middle of prep space which is annoying if you want the kids to empty dishwasher whilst you are prepping food on island. Just make sure you have 700 depth where fridge is and at least 1200 walkway in front of it.
