That one transitional piece that must be perfect.
Commentaires (0)I have a very well built set of furniture my Father made - so for the emotional reasons I will not give it up. Then comes the BUT - it is pale and made out of solid birch with absolutely beautiful flaming, swirling type of wood - and I love dark almost black, black and some grey for my furniture. I like silver over gold, latter of which I will not accept. It is crime to paint wood - generally speaking especially when it is beautiful - and so I will not do. The set of furniture includes a bit over 3 m long very near ceiling height book selves with center area designed for the TV and a stereo.. electronics. It has its own lights. There is section with led-glass and other with wood doors - some open shelves. Down there is a bit larger base with drawers. Then there exists an additional extension which can also be set else where in a room. There is 1 sqm large a coffee table high enough to work as a laptop table with structural design and a hidden base compartment for a home safe (how ever not good for permanent work table - no way). I designed the table top for it and made it when I was a teen. The design includes glass cover. In addition I have a nicely sized, bit larger than usually lamp table with 3 drawers. I designed the legs for that - so they are not common type while still simple. They are more narrow at the ends than at the top. They have silver handles and traditional framed centers for the doors. The pale birch of the doors in this particular object found online is exactly what my birch is like - tone included... I like the black legs on that. I do like Art Deco - but something about this object just does not work. I need more options and ideas. This might be just the first and most important piece of furniture to get because... I prefer much more things like these.. Please help me to find that small, but not too small a piece that can unite well enough dark and the existing pale birch. Thank you....

Commentaires (36)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!... Voir plusÊtes-vous prêt à investir plus d’argent dans une peinture grand format
Commentaires (4)Good evening Caroline, I took a look at your site. Your paintings remind me alot of a old friend of mine who knew Jackson Pollack a long time ago... Amaranth Ehrehnalt One thing I couldn't find is the size of some of your paintings, small or large. I clicked on small format, we see the painting and details of the painting, but few with the size. Same with the furniture...would help some future clients to know the size. Good luck, an artists life is hard, especially promoting one's work...hopefully there are more people who care for actual art than just wall paper... Thanks for sharing your site, Lynn... Voir plus

I think if you simply change the color of the mantel the rest of the fireplace works just fine.Love that screen with the art.

il y a 4 ansThis isn't the best example since it is a different style of FP, but close enough to get the idea. Remove the mantel, stain the brick black or a charcoal brown that works with your flooring and simply hang the art. Every room can use a touch of black, but sample on white poster boards to find the dark color that looks best with your floors. If you don't want to remove the mantel, paint it, and all the white trim around the FP, black. With a mantel, use a smaller piece of art no wider than the firebox that can hang 5" above the mantel and leave at least 10" of wall above.

Brown Dog

il y a 4 ansNo brown dog is wrong. Just get rid of the screen entirely. You don’t use it anyway. Limewash the bricks with rambio, wooden mantle to break up the flat wall of brick. Get rid of all the knickknacks on the mantle and the artwork. Get a round mirror. The coolest thing would be to paint the interior of the box black, but that really smells!

il y a 4 ansWe have almost the same look with the tall windows on either side. In our case, the brick was already painted (ugly beige) when we bought the house so it was no loss to paint it white per the designer's suggestion. We put an electric "wood" stove in front of the box just because I wanted one. **In no way is this picture meant as a finished product - I am aware that it needs work. It's shared just as a visualization aid for the OP.**

il y a 4 ansIf you can afford it, tiling over it is another great option. We did that at our previous home with Calacutta marble subway tiles, but there are so many beautiful options. You could do a bigger tile 6x12 laid horizontally and a new mantle and you’d have a whole new room. Painting or limewashing is the cheapest bang for your buck.
