But I know the old feeling. I havent been going to gigs or soundwave for many years now. You just get over the effort it takes for you to go there and actually have a good time haha! Re: Goodlife/Gemmil Bravo Build - Powerpoint and cut errors! 522Feb 23, 2014 8:19 pm Yeah we based all ours off a display home too, I was just like okay go on then if it makes you happy, haha. Yeah so can not be bothered battling young emocore whatevers, and now 8 bands have pulled out it's hardly worth it. I'll goto a gig with a ticketed seat over festivals these days, haha. Was looking at some other houses around us today, they were rendered and had their grey float up inside, does that mean that's next for us? Render? Please say yes?

I am having second thoughts about our feature wall tile (Palatino Clay) which will be the left hand wall at the end of the double shower. Worried it's too dark, but I think the colours go, and carry the theme of the house through to the bathroom well. Ahhh the second guessing begins!

Personally, however, I think that dark wall is going to look lovely. Re: Goodlife/Gemmil Bravo Build - Ensuite tile selection pic 525Feb 25, 2014 11:55 am Thankyou, bit worried about the vanity benchtop colour too... Mist Grey.. I didn't want something too beigey so we steered away from Mole Skin that was in the display. Hopefully this works!

But I honestly hate white and bright! Not a fan of it at all! This is our sink so far Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ I'm starting to get a little eh about the sinks =\ we upgraded them, but once the taps are in and mirror it might look better Re: Goodlife/Gemmil Bravo Build - Ensuite tile selection pic 527Feb 25, 2014 6:51 pm Our house is really light and breezy so this is the only dark tile in our whole house, eek. But thanks - yours looks great! Do the sinks get cut in or do they sit on top?

Hopefully they look big again with the white. Still no action on the additional powerpoints - so lucky we mentioned it when we did, all walls around that wall in the activity area have been rendered.

I think you might get charged a variation fee, though, but no harm in asking We considered taking ours out at pre start but were told that what we'd be credited was so pitiful it wouldn't be worth it, especially if we wanted to move in before we had the robes done, as we'd literally have no where to hang/store our stuff when we moved in. Now at least we will have somewhere to store things while we take some time to design exactly what we want and save the cash to pay for it all! Love your design, by the way.

Your 'soak well' only holds 424 litres when full. What is your soil type? Soak wells need sandy soils. 10 9447 |
