Integrating balcony with the living room
Q
Comments (6)
I will include the picture once I collect the keys to the apartment. The apartment is 1400 sq ft. and it is located on the 16 th floor. The living room and the balcony floor is at the same level. The French doors, which I intend to remove, separate and protect the living room from the open balcony. But the current owner had installed aluminum casement windows at the balcony. These windows I think will provide sufficient protection from the elements, hence the idea of doing away with the French doors. The authority would not allow us to remove the three feet high concrete wall of the balcony. The idea of the platform (a) to differentiate the living room/balcony boundary, (b) to raise the floor height so one can drink tea at the balcony and admire the view too.

Hairline cracks on cabinets

Wood moves with the temperature - hot/cold etc. Having said that unless you have placed your cabinets right next to a very hot radiator, or in direct sunlight, this should not happen. It also depends on the type of paint they have used - does it stretch with the wood? Any good cabinet maker would know this - I also note that these have been sprayed, and that may be the answer - sprayed paint will not move, whereas painted furniture does give. Do not think I would accept these, and stern words are needed with the supplier and put the ball back in their court. You should have at least one years guarantee with these, so I would ask another supplier what they think.

The light in shower/tap that changes colour depending on temperature is pretty cool - bit of a novelty though!

HI Rachel, that is the sweetest question that i have come across on Houzz. You win the prize for sure. I am assuming that you want to brew a cup of black tea with milk? Recipe: 1. Boil some fresh water in a electrical kettle or in a small pot over fire. Let it come to a nice boil as you supposed to get the temp of the water to about 96%. 2. Once its boiled, pour a little of the water into your tea cup (notice i did not say mug as i believe that tea ought be enjoyed from a tea cup and saucer and not a mug. You did ask how to make the "perfect cup of tea" ha ha ). Swirl the water a little to heat your cup and pour out the water. 3. Place a tea bag of your choice into the tea cup. 4. Pour the freshly boiled water into your tea cup and let it sit for 30 secs or longer if you like your tea stronger. I leave mine for about a min. 5. Whilst waiting for the tea to brew, you could add a tea spoon of sugar to sweeten your brew if you require. 6. Now add a little room temperature milk and stir with a teaspoon. I find sometimes that hot milk curdles a little when added to a brew of tea. 7. Remove the tea bag after your like the colour of your tea. 8. And now for the most important part, its absolutely crucial to call SUGARBAKERS and let us know that the tea is ready and we can bring our cake and sit with you to enjoy your perfect cup of tea. YES! YES!! i can already hear naysayers saying that one needs to add milk into the cup first and then the hot water and tea bag. Milk was traditionally added to tea cups by the English a long time ago (and has become part of tea drinking culture and tradition today) However the reason why tea was added first was rather debatable. Some say that milk was added first to cool the fine bone china tea cups that were imported from China in those days so as not to crack them. Most cups today are made of porcelain and they are rather strong and can withheld a high temperature. Whichever way you decide best, just dont stick a cup of water with a tea bag into the microwave. The large rapid bubbles will cause your tea bag to tear and you will be left with a some loose leaves in your cup. Unless of course you want your fortune read. Whether you brew your cup of tea... 1. cup - hot water - tea bag - milk 2.cup - milk - tea bag - hot water 3.cup - milk -hot water - tea bag ............ which ever way you brew it, make sure you use fresh water and your water is hot and give it a few seconds to brew before you call us to enjoy it with you. Just a quick tip for brewing green tea or herbal tea. Dont boil your water to a very high temperature. Herbal teas and green tea taste nicer when the water is about 70 to 80 degree celsius and you dont get the metallic taste. Unlike coffee, tea has a huge tradition and culture in many countries. Sometimes it does not hurt to learn from other tea drinkers. Lets have tea someday? Hope this helps you?
