Master Bedroom floorplan dilemma
Comments (22)There are many on GW who don't like pocket doors. I'm NOT one of them! If they are done right, they're great! One needs a very heavy, solid wood door for privacy. The woodwork slot into which the leading edge of the door fits when closed, needs to be deep - far deeper than is typical here in the US. When it is, the fit is good and the door is as sound-proof as a normal hinge-hung door. I learned this 2 years ago while renting a very high end house in London for a week. I have pocket doors in my own house - 4 to be exact. I have no problem with them except they don't close quite as closely as I would prefer. When I looked at the pocket door to the bathroom in London, I could quickly see why it worked so well - a deep "pocket" for it to close into. It made no noise at all while being closed. I have a feeling that all pocket door hardware is not created equal! The top quality hardware will be quiet and seamless. This is not the place to save a bit of money....See MorePaint dilemma/Master bedroom
Comments (13)very difficult to get an idea of the colors because your lighting is yellow. try using a flash, or turning off your lights, Or, get 4000K bulbs that give off a natural white light. Is this a true color? are the walls yellow/gold, the dresser greenish? greenish/gold bed spread? Olive green curtains? I see no beige. I only see gold/yellow, and shades of green, w/hints of golds and a slight chartreuse....See MoreMaster Bedroom/Bathroom Dilemma
Comments (10)The best way to approach this is to first have an accurate diagram of your entire floorplan with dimensions of everything. The last thing you want to do is to spend a great deal of $$$ adding onto your home with a dysfunctional layout that will reduce the value of your property. I've seen additions that turn a functional floorplan into something that is not at all functional and you don't want to go there. None of us can give you any advice with the information provided other than seek out an architect. You could get better advice with the floorplan and its dimensions including doorways and windows and closet areas....See MoreCountertop Dilemma Master Bedroom
Comments (4)No good solution. Quartz, wood, whatever, you're going to have seams. What I would do is use a Corian type material (best possible seam--near invisible if you use a solid color or small particulate.) Also, I wouldn't go with the brown wood shelves over the white cabinets. I would want the shelves to match the white cabinets....See Moretedbixby
