Its a rustic timber bungalow - timber ceilings, rafters and many timber clad walls inside. Timber cupboards and cork floors in kitchen, mid-green carpet (that can go) through living - a brick fireplace (needs painting or something) is the centrepiece. Some small leadlight windows and generally the house is rustic and quite dark although there are some bigger windows - I think all the timber is darkening the space. I want to lighten and brighten the open plan living areas with colour but keep it warm and cosy - we can paint the walls but not the ceilings preferably as its a huge job. We are both artists and have some great photos and artworks to hang. Thank you! Need a photo Love to see your artwork as well.....
