cabinets are being installed - does this look weird to you?
Comments (38)Sounds like you will have the sink cabinet replaced, right, that's great - you will be happier in the long run! Just want to ask - what is the Brand name (and the color of white) of these beautiful cabinets? Looks like a style that will fit very nicely in our new Old House! May I also ask, what have you selected for your Counter Top, Floor, Back Splash, Sink, Frig. and Range? And what is the size of your Kitchen and the Island? I also used glass doors over the sink in my last house - really makes the space open up - used the antique glass, looked lovely. Wish we were almost finished - Thank you so much for sharing, roseofblue...See MoreDoes this shower look weird?
Comments (8)Sorry, but a lot about that shower looks ''wierd''. Not just tbe glommed on door support and freaking greenboard! What is the experience level of the contractor that you are working with? Is this his first bathroom? The gaps in the cement board on the floor and lack of thinset under it means your tile may crack. The lack of slope under the piece of Kerdi means that you'll have water issues in your shower floor. And there is a lot more. Hope you can get it all fixed correctly....See MoreDoes this look weird?
Comments (16)Ok, I see the growing consensus. Olychick, "altar to the TV" is right! Lol. But that is one of the main purposes of this area. We have a living room and other areas with no TV, and we don't watch too much TV, but this area is for TV watching when we do watch TV. DH, DS and I are avid tennis fans and we watch tennis and news here. I watch movies with my friends here. We are not home much and want to relax just sitting when we are home. So, it shall be the altar it was meant to be.:-) The current arrangement feels and lives better IRL, but the chopped off sectional does look odd. The sectional is made by Cisco Brothers. I don't think they have this line currently on the market, but if I could find a love seat in that style by Cisco I will replace the incomplete part with a love seat. If I can't find it, I may put another love seat or some other seating along the wall. Ghostlyvision, I will try that arrangement when I have some help with moving the pieces. Blfenton, moving the chairs back any further would impede with traffic flow. Crl, the corner in the sectional is just too deep to be functional even with multiple end tables, but it's a government d suggestion. If anyone has any suggestions for other seating along the wall, please let me know. I need to hang some paintings, and the choice of what art goes there would depend on what the seating arrangement is near that wall. Thanks everyone!...See Morewhy does this look so weird?
Comments (26)Your table height is fine. Consider something like this, with a metal switch plate, unpainted. It’s OK if people see your switchplate. Metal ones are easier to keep clean You might need to move your table and mirror a tad closer to the left-side door....See MoreKaillean (zone 8, Vancouver)
