Bit much ey? Got me tempted but I have povo windows.

Lovely. Cheers.

Thanks! Think that was my “I’ve finally painted the same thing” pic. Still doing other touches.

That window reveal/ trim is something… how was it achieved?

Possible larger issue.

I’m sure your ten second read won’t disturb anyone and you can do the apologising and sobbing in the dark so it’s a non issue imo.

Bingo.
Awful think to be honest, head board slat at the wrong height and legs that stick out further than needed.

As seen here.

Was it this thread someone recommended a silicone finishing kit?

Flos glo ball mini is what you’re looking for.

Rubber or vinyl could be good hard wearing options. Usual place colour flooring.co.uk

Ha, yeah fair point! Think I have heard that one before!

Yeah that’s going to look fantastic, the window trim and the warm roof especially. Can’t remember why my builders said they couldn’t do a warm roof but I think it’s a detail that makes most the difference.

Edit yours will actually look nicer than that example as your trims and windows are nicer.

The price of the tiles was comparable to ones from Uk shops and Morocco was where they met or something so held sentimental value, so a great decision imo.

They look fantastic. Very jelly.

+1 claybrook.

Ha ha wtf. What’s Doms alias on here? Are you Dom?!

Cut off noted. Thanks.

When does creating a home cross over to being a vanity project? What’s the cut off? Because to be fair the house was less than they needed on the end due to basement issues (maybe it’s that part?).
I’d take the risk on the basement build to have an actual garden.

Yeah fair point, I do feel once you’ve committed to the design you prob get emotionally attached and they were prob thinking “this is perfect, if only we had a garden” and then bingo… hope they get it finished, they’ve both lost partners and don’t come across particularly smug or annoying, feels a bit mean spirited to mock (not directed at you).

Was it this thread folks were chatting recent Hackney grand designs? @Tenderloin ? I know it wasn’t you who was knocking the guy but after watching feel the criticism was pretty unfounded, he was building at a time where costs were an impossible guessing game and he had two companies agree on cost and work for the basement and they both failed him, hardly things within his control. I think it came in at 100k over at a total of around 900k which is pretty decent too.

I prob need to draw it out. But yeah, a splash back type thing of valchromat, going all the way round. I have wires running down from the wall mounted monitor that I want to hide.
Think I’ve got it worked out now…

Hold up…

Yeah, Zactly.
I’m thinking my back splash or whatever they are called will actually be near the same height so could integrate.

Hiding cables… talk to me.
I know running cables through drywall should be relatively easy but I’m hitting horizontals and my insulation is kinda solid.
Truncking on the wall is one option, but I’m wondering if there’s a way to set the trunking into the plasterboard.

Anyone any other ideas?
