my apologies, i should have been more specific the cabinets look great it's the external door with the old fashioned handle and lock that needs updating
I don't want to be too critical , but I don't think its much .
White walls , white cabinets , white appliances -- standard design for every hospital for 80 years . A couple of bits of timber to add some warmth -- well , better than nothing . Bland generic tiles on the floor , and different ones on the walls -- nothing to offend everyone . So its like 5 million other laundries .
Oh , I know , a black door handle and a black tap . That'll add 'interest' . Hang on , the old door handle is already black . It looks 80 years old -- it might be a reproduction , who knows , who cares . I'll add a modern 'on trend' black tap . That'll get me credit from the heritage lovers and the modern lovers I'm sure .
Ooh , the door rattles a bit in the wind ? I'll put a cheap chrome slider near the bottom . And better lock it -- phew , lucky , I have this white one . That'll do .
This designing lark is pretty easy eh . . . . . . . . .
It was a simple design in saying that we added a few spec items such as a stone top to somewhat highlight a nicer finish. the cabinet colours from memory are slightly on the off white. Yes you do see the cabinet colours within hospitals, but it is common for domestic purposes.
Yes it is pretty standard as a laundry which is an improvement from what was there originally. I appreciate your feedback pottsy99 So open for any type of feedback as it will only improve any future projects of mine.
Thats just silly -- I would probably have done the tiles here in red , or even blue or green ( colder colours that should only be in rooms not used for any length of time ) . The problem with blue or green or teal here though is that you'd need chrome or stainless fittings , as black or copper wouldn't suit .
But if I bought that house how it is now , yes , I would definitely change the pot plant pot , and the other one on that shelf , to orange , and paint the door orange -- the black handle would suit that !
