Browse Forums Interior Decorating Lounge 1 Oct 12, 2010 5:46 pm Hi all - We are about to finalise all our internal selections with our builder next week and would really love everyone's thoughts, opintions, comments on the below selections we have to date. We are very keen to see if people feel that the selections below will work/coordinate overall. We are wanting a more modern look and feel overall so please let us know what you think. I am also attaching below a picture of our future home. Internal Colours Internal walls throughout the house (Exc Home Theatre) - Burnt Ash (Bristol P226-N2) Walls in Home Theatre - Silhouette (Bristol P223-N6). Wanted a more dramatic effect here Ceilings/Cornice - Whisper White (Taubmans 90YY83/036) Skirting & Window Frames - Whisper White (Taubmans 90YY83/036) Wall Alcoves (feature) in Master Bed, Foyer Entry & Rumpus - Silhouette (Bristol P223-N6) Question - Do you think Silhouette colour in alcoves on wall will give good contrast and impact as a feature against Burnt Ash. If not, what other colour could be an option for the Alcoves? Flooring to Ground Floor Ground floor (with the exception of Lounge, Study, Theatre) will be Polished Porcelin - a very light grey/white look Timber flooring (Jarah) will be used in Lounge/Study/Theatre Kitchen Kitchen Cupboards/Doors - Shannon Oak Sheen (Polytech) Kitchen Overhead Cupboard Doors - Aluminium frame/Staphire white flat glass with Whisper White end panels Kitchen Tall Cupboards around appliances and fridge - Polyurethane Gloss/Dulux Whisper White Kitchen Benchtop - Caesarstone - Snow Kickboard material - Brushed Aluminium (Polytech) Kitchen Splashback - Zoom Red (DecoGlaze) Bathroom/Ensuite Bathroom/Ensuite Vanities - Shannon Oak Sheen (Polytech) Benchtops - Caesarstone - Snow Tiling (Floor and Walls 300 x 600) - Polished Porcelin - same as downstairs Feature Tiling (in between mirrors and shower walls only) - dark charcoal striking lines throughout it with a hint of glitz in it I very much appreciate everyone's thoughts/comments/opinions on the above and if you think it works or alternatives I may want to consider? Thanks Chris Re: Opinions & Advice needed! on Colour Choices 3Oct 13, 2010 7:02 pm Hi Chris, Your Kitchen selections are perfect. Do you have any pictures of your chosen floor and bathroom tiles? Also, I'm not that familiar with the Bristol paint range and only have an old fandeck that doesn't seem to have your colours So hopefully someone else on here could comment on that??

A quick follow up question if you are able to answer it. In relation to the splashback we want for the kitchen (Zoom red by Decoglaze). If we do not go with decoglaze (as they are expensive), and instead we go with someone else for glass splashback, what colour from the Taubman or Dulux range would you recommend as being as close to the zoom red colour from decoglaze?
