Comments (7)Give me the before any day ! Clean , uncluttered , highlights the wooden floors and door frames , has some colourful art and stools and cushions . I did wonder why you'd put a 1970's microwave on a table , but someone told me that was what TV's were like 100 odd years ago hahaha . More space ? A Bunnings gloss white cabinet on a budget would fit in , or a dark actual wooden one if your budget stretches into the $100's . Shelves above the couch for anyone over 1.8 metres to knock their head on ? 1960's green paint ? A 'nothing' couch ? A weird collection of pictures on a shelf ? A table that can't work out it its wooden or industrial ? That's okay in itself , BUT combined with a slightly strange wooden light / storage thing IN A DIFFERENT WOOD , and the floor different again , well . . . . . . . My quick 'vision' based on the before pictures -- leave as is , but add -- a large red rug ( actually 2 -- one in lounge , one in bedroom ) ; a larger abstract work of art ; a flat screen tv mounted on the wall ; possibly red subway tiles in the kitchen ( my current favourite wall tiles are a mix of 25mm tall charcoal , mid grey , aluminium and mid red tiles ) ; and new lights , but you'd actually live with the existing ones if you had to ....See MoreHelp!

Comments (17)Actually, your style isn't really very scandi in my opinion. It's industrial and rustic. I'd match recycled and chunky timbers with the concrete, a timber with rich reds. There is a company near me that makes plywood panels with recycled wood veneer attached. They're too far for you but might give you some ideas for a feature wall. I'd start with a few tins of paint and some colour actually. you'd be surprised what that can do! I'm fixing, well technically my second home but with our first we figured fairly quick it wasn't a forever home and didn't do anything personal with it. So this is our first "home" if not our first house. i getya! I know everyone seems to love white walls, but after years of bland rentals the first thing I wanted to do was paint colours all over the walls! Anything but white! Paint is cheap and a safe place to start testing your design flair. Go and paint a bunch of sample tins onto the walls and don't stress too much about the perfect look. start with what you like and find what suits that. A colour that makes you smile when you see it. I've paid about $10 a sample tin. like others said, don't do anything with the carpets yet, you can throw a rug over it if its too boring and it will look fine. There are so many things that I first thought I needed to completely change, then as I painted and freshened and tidied up I realised were not needed a huge reno. Our house was a bit of a wreck though, not a nice new apartment so things just literally needed cleaning and fixing. Put up some pictures, art, photos you like too. Honestly, I know everyone's being funny about getting a girlfriend and getting her to decorate, but actually I think it's great you've got your own taste and want to decorate. I think anyone you bring home would love seeing more of your personality around the place. Check out some garage sales and buyswap sell and auctions for rustic timber pieces for your home. Maybe a nice pipe and timber bookshelf in the lounge instead of an entertainment unit? https://www.northernriverstimber.com.au/...See MoreDo I disguise or use this post in the middle of a bedroom?
Comments (15)You need to work out first what you want this room to be. If your preference to keep it as a bedroom,then to remove the pole would be priority. This can be done. You have room between the two windows to put a post- timber or steel. A beam (steel one due to stronger and no sag) can be put on top of post and across to other side to be bolted to wall frame or on top of another post which is bolted to the wall. Then close in gap of other ceiling by boxing it in. Remove the post and you have one big room. A little bit more work but it will be worth it....See More- 6 years ago
