Kitchen redesign ideas needed
We bought this house earlier this year and the first pics are from the real estate agents advertisement for this house
I had a kitchen guy come in and he has suggested the plan above-
But I think It would be better to close this doorway in
and have a floor to ceiling pantry and fridge freezer beside each other and open the corner of the room ( on the lower right hand side of plan)
sort of like below

Thank Ted :)
i think I am not getting the right pics of this room :)
the blue is ceiling here's another try at showing the shape this is the wall that looks toward the garden
And this looks toward the kitchen
The LR ceiling height is much higher than the other downstairs rooms

Comments (4)Well the piece above the fireplace really overwhelms the space, and most specifically the fireplace. Is there another wall space anywhere that can showcase it? trying to use this piece in such a small area makes everything else lose its appeal, it has to fight to be seen. For sure move the sofa where it faces the fireplace, or set at an angle facing where you hv the TV set to be mounted. If you can, leave the chair in the same area, use the table the TV is sitting on as a coffee table for both. The way that makes the space work is the way you need it....See MoreHelp!

Comments (1)We have been renovating an 80's home with a vaulted roof in the living/kitchen/dining area, something like your picture. We needed to make the space look bigger so we opted to hang our tv from the roof using an Adtec tv bracket in white, pretty nifty unit, all wiring, aerials etc go up the mounting pole and through the roof. The unit also swivels 360 degrees which is great for any view point in the room, including our outside area. We had a tv unit custom built by Jarramar Furniture which is like a rather large floating cupboard. The unit has 2 draws and one cupboard. All the cords etc come down the wall in the adjoining room behind the door, neatly packed into duct and back into the back of the floating cupboard. It's very neat and tidy, keeps everything off the ground and makes your space look bigger. Both Adtec and Jarramar have websites where you can check out their stuff. You just need to ensure your tv weights are ok for the Adtec unit your wish to purchase. Good luck with your design....See MoreAdvise on redesigning house
Comments (0)I have been going round in circles trying to plan a renovation so would greatly appreciate some advice... Current floor plan: Current layout (contents are sketched and not to scale sorry) Desired outcomes: A more defined 'entrance' area (some people have commented they like it as it is, with the front door opening right into the house, but I would prefer a specific entrance space - be interested in peoples opinions on this) A more spacious main bathroom, with separate shower and bath A space for a home office (ideally with room for two, but that's not essential) An en-suite for third bedroom (ideally toilet, basin and shower; but might not be able to fit shower) EDIT: we really want a nice master bedroom and a nice guest room, hence the desire to add an en-suite to bedroom 3. Even though it is smaller, we have toyed with making Bedroom 3 the master as it's away from the street so is quieter and more private, plus it's not an ideal location for guests being near the laundry and kitchen. And then bedroom 1 would be the guest room. This is where I got to before I decided I needed advice! EDIT: I have updated this floor plan and included some annotations Few other notes: What are the thoughts on Bedroom 1's en-suite being off the wardrobe? Personally, I'm not a fan of it so originally planned to move the en-suite door to be off the bedroom. But this does mean there's three doors on the one wall (middle one into WIR wouldn't need a door - could just leave as an opening like it is now) The door into bedroom 1 used to open into the little passage way, but we have moved this to open into the room - see images below of bedroom 1: Bedroom 1s original layout New door into bedroom 1 (original door used to open in the passage which reduced access width by about 100mm) Potential en-suite door location Front of bedroom, for context (excuse the sander - was the only picture I could find!)...See More- 9 years ago
