New ground floor layout

il y a 8 ans

Hi,

We were lucky to buy this house recently. We would like to redesign the layout, how would you do it? Open plan, broken plan?

Couple of points:

1. We love the utility room

2. We don't need that big bathroom, small one with shower will do.

3. Big conservatory currently used like a garage with lots of clutter and bikes.

4. Nice to have the garage back (it was converted to study + ensuite) but still keep the study at ground floor

5. Kitchen is south facing

6. We can extent the kitchen another 2 meters out to garden (our next door neighbour already extended his so I guess it wouldn't be a big deal)

We're not very good at design. Not sure how to tackle.

Thanks,

Congrats on your new home! It's a great space and no doubt the community will have something to share.

I'm not a professional but I'd personally combine the kitchen and dining room or dining room and lounge to make the space more open planned. I'm not sure if that's possible with the house structure. Hope some professionals will help you soon!

Best to employ a local architect to help you work through pros and cons...remember that a professional can protect you from expensive mistakes - yes, they cost money, but it is important to have guidance.

Architects are registered with the ARB www.arb.org.uk and you should be able to find a local person!

Besoin de conseils pour choisir les rideaux pour un salon scandinave

bonjour, ils sont très bien les rideaux que vous avez trouvé, le bleu est bien clair et dans les tons pastels que nous utilisions beaucoup en Scandinavie. Le bleu assortie pour le coussin est parfait. Si vous souhaitez vous rapprocher du style Scandinave il faut choisir entre rideaux et voilage comme on ne mets jamais le deux, beaucoup trop lourd pour nous intérieurs ou on essaye toujours garder une luminosité maximale. En Tunisie vous avez le problème contraire donc il faudra s'adapter et trouver une équilibre entre le style Scandinave et vous besoins. Si vous souhaitez avoir une voilage je conseillerai vivement un blanc uni, sans rayure! votre tableau bleu et jaune sera très bien avec l'ensemble, il est très beau!

Comment améliorer ce plan de cuisine?

Microwave next to the table would solve the bad looks and the height issue. Normally upper cabinets can be about 48cm above countertop, but since it looks better to have them on the same height as the built-in hood, you'll need 60cm. But if you're 1.60m you could consider a free hanging hood and some upper cabinets next to it, otherwise all uppers would be too high for you and you'd only use the lower shelf. And even better: Buy an oven with microwave function! (already posted that I think) Oven with microwave is different than microwave with grill. I even have a 12 year old tiny Panasonic combi that makes perfect bread and pizza!

comments on furniture placement?

Hello Catherine, It seems like a different solution is somewhat blocked by 1) the size/shape of the room, 2) the door and window positions as well as 3) the type and size of the furniture... (sorry I know this is obvious). Something has to give... Could you give the exact room size and confirmation of doors or passages? (door to the right? arched passage to the left of the piano?) Is the furniture that you have included actual or new? What are their footprints? How is the bay window done? full height floor to ceiling? starts at bench height? How is the window exposed? East, West, North or South? How high is the fireplace and is it's angled wall also full height? Most upright pianos are around 1m30 (or à little more than 4 feet). Putting a TV above it can be an option, but perhaps a little uncomfortable, not to add that visually it will be an odd addition unless you take the "fake painting" version (ex Samsung "The Frame"). thanks in advance, Lynn
