Would you put a phone booth in your house?

il y a 10 ans

We've got phone booths in the Houzz office and love them. Would you ever put one in your home?

Tell us!

Are you kidding? I'd plan my entire house around any of these phone booths. :-)

Need advice about less ugly flooring option--French rental apartment
Q
Commentaires (2)
I see your point, It does look ugly :) Since its a rental apartment, do you have the authorization to remove it ? Because unfortunately, you can't put down vinyle over lino, it will not work (and its not because of the uneven floor). You can remove the lino and put another one, less ugly. It can be nice actually :) http://designmag.fr/design-dinterieur/lino-sol.html You are speaking about sticker, its quite cheap, why not trying and see if it fits with an uneven floor ? Although Im not sure that it will look pretty. Last solution, you can paint the lino, it will not last forever but it could be nice. Ask for expert advice to by the appropriate painting pots.

Besoin de conseils pour choisir les rideaux pour un salon scandinave
Q
Commentaires (84)
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?
Q

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!

I think a phone booth would make a great min-office or mini computer room

I once designed a summer home here in the United States for a family that lived in London. In the design process his office in the home kept getting moved around and got smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller, until we ended up putting a glass door divided into 24 lights on his office with and arched transom above with a crown etched in the transom glass. The door and trim was painted bright red. If I can find an image I will post it.

I had a friend in OK who built a massive home when her girls were entering their teenage years. She had two phone booths built in her upstairs hallways. They had glass doors so she could see the girls, but she didn't have to hear the constant chatter of teens! They looks really great!

Yes! Especially if it doubled as a tardis. This could be the next best thing..

You'd have to give me a pretty compelling reason to not put a classic phone booth in my home. I would convert it to a desk or pantry, though. It's the furniture designer in me.

Sure if you like antiques. Make for a good conversation piece. But does take up a lot of space.

Absolutely! I'm in love with the British/Union Jack trend right now and I think that one of these would go great in our kids' game room/media room. Perfect for a client!

Reminds of the movie, "The Happiest Millionaire" with Greer Garson. Their phone booth worked well because it shut out the family noise without having to go too far...I'd love to have one. Just yesterday my daughter had to repeat on the phone to me what she was saying so many times she grew impatient; because my 2 (older) sons and husband were having a lively conversation!

How big is your house? If you have an area that you made into a little pub, bar or man cave, this would be perfect - especially if you got a great price, if not you can still sell phone booths online for big bucks!

I always wanted a red phone booth in my garden ... and still might one day. I liked the idea of sitting out there having a relaxed conversation rain or shine ... and it would just be a fun thing to have (and I love red) ... although I would have a comfy seat added.

I wouldn't - if you're going to take up that kind of space and be different - I would put a metal sculpture :) one of my contemporary metal sculptures. They don't rust/corrode and always remain a wow factor. In my opinion - it's the best thing you can do for your space that's visually appealing and long-lasting. I do custom colors and styles. Contact me for a free consultation.

I think an old english booth is great in the right room, like a game room next to a home theater entrance, etc. but not without the right environment1

I know this is an old thread, but it reminded me of something I saw just a couple days ago. Though not a phone booth, these people added a little English pub to their home.
