the wall opposite is concrete masonry blocks... they run from outside thru to the end of the hallway and go full height thru to upstairs - they have really good thermal properties, so between them and the concrete on the floor and cross ventilation the house remains cool, even though its close to 30 degrees outside, which is great for our power bill as we haven't had to use any form of air conditioning - so far!! Hope it stays this way thru the next couple of months!!

Moogles, Can I just say that you have exquisite taste. If I had the $$ I would come to you to design my home. Ive seen a few pics of it here and there and there is nothing I dont like about it. Sorry for being OT guys. BTW Moogles, I stole a couple of ideas from you for our ensuite

Oh gosh
Let me assure you though, its def not perfect, there are things I would love to change - "in hindsight" type of thing - it's our first build, and I would love to do it all again but not an ideal time to be selling...
Take any idea you like, thats what its here for, I have got some great ideas and insights thru reading this forum!!
wow very nice moogles
Ooooo I just saw these doors
Very elegant indeed.
We chose the traditional swing glass door as there was insufficient sliding space.
Have posted some comparison between swing doors vs sliding doors at the link:

We have similiar hanging sliding doors but in timber.
Previous owners were too cheap to put cavity sliders in.
Hate them to pieces, always bumping into them.
Glass ones look marginally better, each to their own though!
