Hi,
I have been tearing my hair out trying to finalise my colours for our house that my partner and I will be building. We will be using this house as a holiday house for us and as a holiday rental. For this reason I have attempted to use only the builders standard range and something that will not date too quickly.
I would appreciate your opinions on these selections. I think my partner is ready to arrange an intervention for me and the consultant at our builder is ready to scream at me.
