Might not date or be "so five minutes ago" but jsut how I feel. Also, remember the Tuscan craze of the 90's? I wonder what the craze of 2000-2010 will be. I'm sure I'll fall into it with the house we are building... Re: What do you think will be 'so 5 minutes ago' soon? 62Jun 20, 2009 2:45 pm Maybe render is the current craze that will be a no-no in a few years? I like both render and all brick so it doesn't worry me which way the trends go. My house is having a bit of both. Blog: http://bluemistkids.blogspot.com "Never be afraid to try something new.

I haven't met a woman yet who thinks the site of a bathroom enhances the decor of her bedroom. Maybe I just don't know enough women, or something... Also I imagine in my family, I would just serve as an open invitation for my husband, children, fluffy white dog, to enter the bathroom at will. NO. THANKS. Yes the rendering, although it has been around in forms for years- stucco. Perhaps the colours will date?

DD (7 years old) bought her girlfriend into our open plan bedroom/ensuite a few weeks ago when I was in there ... not the best timing . A sharp squeal put it to rights . That being said I love open plan. It has its limitations but if you can live with the lack of privacy and a lot of tidying ..... its fabulous. Nothing is perfect.

Ceasarstone <----> Quantum Quartz = 6 of one and half-a-dozen of the other in my book!!! They are both manufactured (reconstituted) stone just different brands with QQ being slightly cheaper. I like 'em both and I think they still have longevity for what it's worth. Having said that I also like natural stone like granite and *gasp*..... marble and limestone (yes...even for a kitchen!!).
