That is not much to go on. Style needs to reflect you and your family. What do you like. How many people and age groups. Etc. What does the existing room look like

Where is the main used outdoor area, what are the existing colours of floor and kitchen. What furniture do you require??? Etc etc do you need window treatments, what are the stairs made of? Is it a solid wall on stairs or a balustrade?

You probably don't need to turn over the soil--probably shouldn't on a steep slope. Talk with your local experts about the best way to convert your paddock. Maybe there are enough native wildflowers growing in there that you could manage by not mowing. Here in the US Midwest we often solarize the soil by covering it with clear plastic sealed all around--this takes a full summer. I have also killed grass by covering it with a tarp for a whole year. For paths I have just laid newspaper, wetted it, and then covered it with mulch. So, it really depends on how big the area is that you are considering. Do find an expert on your area.

How do I remove this off my floor!

Thanks everyone for the warnings. Honestly I had not thought that could be possible so just in case I'll gear up with a mask to avoid inhaling any of it. I will still need to remove it, but from what I read the problem with asbestos is if you sand it and make it into breathable particles, so ripping it out should be ok. I've looked up in youtubr and there seems to be a tool called mastic remover that you can put on your floor sander and it would scratch the surface removing any of that stuff.

Hey! Great space! The table is too small for the space, it would immediately help if you had head chairs on either end of the table. It would read larger. If you're interested in a new dining set, try a round dining table, seating at least 6 for size. You need something to define each space, a new furniture arrangement could help. I would try rotating the sectional so that its off of the window. Good Luck!

Led lighting running on both sides of each of the beams - you can buy it in strips. I would go for a bright white but you can even get it in colours and or changing colours. I would also do the same along the floor under the cabinets and perhaps between the upper cabinets and bench top.

The set up photos is how I would set up the space. You just need to work out your style and add in personal artwork. If this is your furniture you have a wonderful basis to add to.

Would you consider changing the kitchen. The island is wasting space and could be rotated 90 degrees to give more space to living area. Or close up end if you want couch facing window. Bench right along the wall with high windows.

Looking at your photos, they may be real estate photos. But I still like the placement and type and colour of furniture. And yes the kitchen island is wasting space, as Kate has shown. A buffet or storage wall is the only use for that thoroughfare. Agree with Kate wonderful idea about extending the island and adding seating. At the moment the island is your only bench space and that needs to be increased.
