the whole house needs attention, Me and my youngest daughter with her Three Boys, live together in a Three bedroom one lounge and one toilet / bathroom, yes we are renting, through housing department, yes the rent is convenient as we pay a minimum of a quarter of our income, just need a better laid out house design with the toilet being a separate room with an extra toilet thrown in, in the laundry area, yes we are blessed to have a roof over our heads, we live in NSW, Australia.

My husband and I are building a modern coastal home and the interior designer suggested this colour around garage but concerned it will be yellow?? Does anyone have white duck dulux render pictures?

What external cladding to use and can you render the bricks on the inside without impeding the thermal mass properties?

my suggestions includes an ens, bathroom and separate laundry and allows for the living room to l to be divided from the entry if you need a 4th bedroom and/or separate lounge although a sofa bed could suffice for occasional overnight guests without the dividing wall but extra details of the dimensions of the existing bathroom and laundry may suggest alternative options for the bathrooms and laundry and all the stairs implies a sloping site and potential high foundations and/or space underneath the house or alfresco...is there enough headroom anywhere downstairs or at the rear of the garage for a laundry and/or pool house and what are the walls floor and roof built out of and a Google Earth view of the roof and external photos would also help ?
