New around here and wanted to share my very first house decorating project. We have purchased a townhouse from the plan and have been lucky enough to be able to pick all the colours and change the interior a little bit. Here are the floor plans.

This is a bad pic, but this is what we changed it to. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Colours I have picked so far are: For all painted surfaces (same colour for everything) = Dulux White on White. Flooring: Downstairs will be all tiles, picked a tile called Jessica Ivory. Its mostly white with a hint of gray through it. Upstairs will be all carpet (except for wet areas). I have picked a Godfrey Hirst, colour is called Husk, looks like this (think its a bit browner in life): Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Kitchen: I changed the kitchen as the original plan was to have a raised serving bit, but we really wanted to keep the place open feeling, so we now have a level bench. Benchtop: Caesarstone in IceSnow Cupboards: Desinger white in gloss Splash backs: Tile (400 x 250) in White, with a feature tile in Sandstone Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Appliances: All stainless steel. Both Bathrooms: Floor tiles: White Wall tiles: (400 x 250) White Feature tile: 1 Vertical strip in a chocolate brown colour. My furniture to fill it is made up of dark brown coloured dining and coffee tables, TV unit and bedroom set. Some white book cases, and side tables. Atm I have a 2 piece blue lounge (but hopefully getting a new one). I'm a little worried its going to be tooo white, but hopefully I can break it up with my furniture and decorating (planning on using splashes of orange and blue). Looking forward to hearing what you think.
