Comments (20)Kill two birds with one stone and replace the balustrade with a full length, double sided cabinet. This will blur the height difference between the rooms while creating more if a sense of the two rooms working independently of each other, and provide a place for interesting piece or two on the top(like sculpture). In the process, you could ensure the traffic flow and furniture of the rooms works best with the passage to the lounge where it is, and if not, decide where it works best and build the cabinet either side of the passage....See MoreHow to modernise our 80s house facade and incorporate a porch
Comments (11)Love the 80' house, because you have a lot of sun to deal with a pergola from just above the front door running along the garage wall (minus the furniture) you could set a clear roof on top of the slats for shelter from rain. could even consider a similar pergola at a lower level running across from the front entrance and above the two front windows, these can be built to help block summer sun. Maybe render the garage wall to break up the brick and paint same as the garage door and timber above, this looks pale beige /grey, then this colour above windows remembering that window and door frames are cream, they can be painted. please keep the 80's door celebrate it....See MoreWhat to do with 80s attic bedrooms?
Comments (14)Hi Lorna, it is a lovely space. A big challenge in these rooms is getting comfortable storage because the only walls offering height is the wall you need for the bed. The other walls are too low for you to be able to access storage on them even if you position it there(like under the window seat). So if you need storage/closet space, you might want to consider putting the wardrobe/closeton the far left side next to the bed so that it doesn't close in the room too much and then have a chest of drawers on the right side(1st image), or if that won't give you enough storage you might need to go either side of the bed, in which case, putting shelves behind the bed will project your bed forward out of the recess between the closets(2nd image). Also worth considering a bed without an and so that is one less thing to dodge around(and kick you toe on) in the tighter space. Happy renovating:)...See MoreSandbox Studio®
