Still looking at going for the Saturn series for our new kitchen though, even at more than 4 times the price of the 2000 series. Owner Building at Jimboomba Woods in Logan City Qld.

I'm struggling I've been to all the lighting shops in Perth a million times they all have the same things and I'm not in love with any of them. Does anyone else feel like this? Anyway we chose a fan I guess that's progress. We chose the Artemis fan (we were thinking the dark wood but a maple one is due to be released next month which might suit better). Up lights the only ones we've been able to find to date have been external looks like in going to have to go online I also talked DH into these chairs - I've put a deposit down on one but mine will be brown I need to take the king lounge swatch back to the shop to make sure they work. So in the family room between the kitchen and theatre I will have the king lounge on one side the large blue chest as my coffee table and these two chairs on the other - fingers crossed it works Please excuse the shocking photo but the lighting was coming through the shop window Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ They are quite low but super comfortable <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=62083">viewtopic.php?t=62083</a><!-- l --> Re: Perth NOR OB on 5 Acres - Screeding commences today :-) 850Aug 10, 2014 5:32 pm Oh sorry, I asked the question about the pendants on the wrong thread!

He could easily have passed away before even starting. He finally got to live out his dream and experience (albeit it briefly) living in it. One way of looking at it as perhaps it was this project that actually kept him going. Re: Perth NOR OB on 5 Acres - Screeding commences today :-) 860Aug 11, 2014 11:04 am Yeah I watched that one too, it was pretty sad, he seemed like a real character. But he seemed to enjoy the whole process and at least he got a couple of good years out of it. The preview of the next episode looked even sadder, maybe it's a new trend in the series!
