Furniture layout for an awkward open floor plan
Comments (5)David - Thanks! Appreciate that you even drew out the plan. :) You are absolutely right, it's been difficult finding an optimum layout. In fact, our current layout is more or less the same as your plan. Would you have chosen different furniture - a smaller sofa or a different dining table perhaps? (Also, I'm curious: is there a good reason why the architect had the pillar like that?) Mona - Do you mean having a buffet at the entry? I currently do have a sideboard, though it wouldn't fit at the entry - it's about 67" wide by 18" deep. It's currently placed in the middle of the long wall. There's actually still sufficient clearance between it and the 3-seater sofa in David's plan. plague - The household shelter is a local (Singapore) building requirement. Its walls are reinforced and is meant to be a shelter in times of emergency. It can't be removed, and any renovations carried out cannot affect its integrity (there is a list of permitted and prohibited works). Normally it is just used as a pantry or storeroom....See MoreID recommending vinyl flooring for BTO - Any bad experience?
Comments (13)Look up Forbo Flooring. I think it comes out of Europe. Its a product with " green " credentials and whilst it is used extensively in hospitals and industrial centres it is extremely strong and hard wearing. I think with other good strong design elements in a room a vinyl floor can easily be pulled off as dynamic and urban. Used a lot in say Denmark and Sweden for example with product longevity in mind & positive if you are also environmentally conscious. I am currently looking at Forbo vinyl to be laid in our sunroom, utility room, pantry and entrance way as it is practical, easy to clean and with a great colour can provide a lot of impact. And whilst it can be hard to walk on & can be viewed sometimes as cold visually I think a rug/rugs can remedy this in the colder months. Vinyl & cork went out of fashion a couple of decades ago and they are now popular again for good reason. I hope this gives you confidence in your current ID :)...See MoreTheme to match floor tiles
Comments (2)I think these floor tiles will work with the woody theme you're going for and the furniture you have! Their natural stone design and cashmere colour would complement wooden furniture. I'm not so sure about the grey wall though. It looks drab and paint job patchy. Could add a pop of colour/wallpaper and make it an accent wall if it fits in your design plan....See MoreBest Pet Friendly Flooring
Comments (0)The 4 Criteria | Best Pet-Friendly Flooring While every pet has its quirks. There are some good general rules that you can consider when choosing a floor. Keeping in mind the comfortability of your pet while ensuring it to last a long time. Scratch Resistance | Best Pet-Friendly Flooring Skittering claws and rough-housing will scuff up your floors really quickly without a high level of scratch resistance. Stain/Chemical Resistance | Best Pet-Friendly Flooring Toilet-trained cats and dogs are great. They rarely have accidents when going number one or two. However, on the occasion that they do, you’d want a stain-resistant floor that cleans up well. Not forgetting a chemical-resistant floor that will tolerate cleansers. Spilled food or drool are also potential hazards. Slip Resistance | Best Pet-Friendly Flooring Recall having nightmares where you’re trying to run but you just don’t move? Don’t subject your fur babies to the same horror! A floor that provides good traction allows your pet to move with more comfort and safely land from higher surfaces. Conclusion | Best Pet-Friendly Flooring Reviewing our choices, your best bet for a pet-friendly flooring is indisputably Metallic Epoxy. However, if you’re looking for a budget-friendly option, vinyl and linoleum are cheap to install. But before heading further, do note that they are less durable than Metallic Epoxy. This in turn may cause inconvenience and eventually being much more costly due to the constant replacement....See MoreNic Owen Architects
