Square Pillar in the center of a living room
Comments (3)Mirrors to make it dissapear. Red paint to make it a feature. With a television or a screen so you have too smaller rooms. With a low surrond table/benches so that it is a centrepiece. With columns/stripes elsewhere in the room so that they repeat the theme it creates. With the wall colour as if it is a non issue. With a chainsaw so it goes way. With outward-facing lights so it is too glary to look at any way. With same curtains that are acoss the windows so that it is camoflaged and looks less substantial. With one of those weird-sounding-named perspective pictures so that you can enjoy looking "through" it from one or more particular places. As a Greek column so that you can convey that you undertand and participate in ironic postmodern architecture. By scraping half of the covering off and adding roofing material and drainage to the other side so that you can tell your friends that you particpate in deconstructive architecture. Surround it with an aquarium. Surround it with an indoor garden jungle. String a hammock or two off it so you can say, "man we were so lucky to have this coumn here so we could hang our hammocks and still be able to use all the room!" With a same-strength steel coumn that is just as strong. Replace it with a beam from one side to the other so that it is no longer structurally required. Run a wall up to it. Or, if someone asks you, "how can you decorate a square pillar or column in the middle of a living room?", you can say "um, it seemed like a good idea at the time, do you think that I shouldn't have?"...See MorePainting a newly finished attic - What is wall and what is ceiling?
Comments (4)Your second photo brings me right to the stairwell scene in Hitchcock's "Vertigo," although I realize I'm looking up, not down. It's really rather wonderful. I'm just wondering, looking to the upper left in particular, if it's been recently checked out by a structural engineer. As for paint, I'll be interested to see what others say. For me, who doesn't do a lot of white, I think I actually would stay with a white here. A muddy green might be nice as well, but you'd need to incorporate a bit of lighting -- perhaps uplighting along the beams unseen from below, with something amazing hanging from that cool, crazy peak you have.

Comments (2)Hi Ah Jun congrats on having a new home! My humble thoughts; 1) storage really is individual liking. I didn't do too much cabinets and wardrobes and I regret it. Space is important, but design can make space look bigger even with storage 2) flooring is important, have to see what kind of theme you want for the house. Recommend you see the designs you have in mind and mix and match 3) your induction cooker is built in? Will there be hood and hob? I don't recommend cooking in service yard cause of clothings and all though. 4) open kitchen can look spacious, but also can don't fully hack to have space for cabinets. Also if you cook do you do heavy cooking all the time? Cleaning is another thing to ponder. 5)are you looking at combining master and common 2? Can consider walkin wardrobe also. if you keen we can have a better discussion on this. :)...See MoreWhich window treatment for off-center windows + structure beam
Comments (3)Dear Natalie I think option b is the best. But you would need to keep the wall covered with the fabric, which can look nice and adds a lovely layer to the room. Curtains should start a few inches below the ceiling and go to the floor, this will make the room look bigger. Best Jenny...See Morevictoria Simpkins
