Browse Forums Building A New House Re: KDR - New Choice Homes Custom design - Perth, WA 103May 12, 2019 10:43 am Yeah a few things, basically all from the bricklayers, who didn’t read the plans well. We had a bit of a win really, because we ended up with face brick in the garage and internal, when we weren’t supposed to. Tile meeting is tenantively next week. Re: KDR - New Choice Homes Custom design - Perth, WA 106May 15, 2019 7:28 pm Had our tile meeting today. So many questions, I didn’t realise they care about the direction which they lay them in (the little arrow under the tile). Changed the floating hob under the vanity to the same as the floor tile and gave them our shower niche feature tile (Matt black penny rounds). It should look like this, but larger scale as our niche is 600x600 (white grout). Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ They started the floor. Can’t do much really because they’re waiting for the stone bench tops to be fitted, so they’ll return next week.

Now it’s panic time for us, getting paint colours chosen, quotes for aggregate driveway and flooring, blinds etc. It’s hard to work out what colours will go together. We feel a little like it’s very white in there! Re: KDR - New Choice Homes Custom design - Perth, WA 114May 28, 2019 8:26 pm thme Getting close. They’re trying to get handover in June. Now it’s panic time for us, getting paint colours chosen, quotes for aggregate driveway and flooring, blinds etc. It’s hard to work out what colours will go together. We feel a little like it’s very white in there! Yes its very tricky, we picked Taubmans Silver Spoon which looks so light, almost white, in daylight but at night it looks really dark which is scary haha. At least because you have so much white its like a blank slate so most colours/shades should work 🤔 Re: KDR - New Choice Homes Custom design - Perth, WA 115May 28, 2019 8:30 pm We have Matt black taps and door handles throughout. Trying to keep to fairly muted tones (black, white, grey and timber tones) and then dress it up with colourful artwork and dressings. The hardest thing for us, which we still haven’t chosen, is the splashbacks for the kitchen, scullery and laundry. There’s too much to choose from! Re: KDR - New Choice Homes Custom design - Perth, WA 117May 31, 2019 8:06 pm Tiles are finished. They started grouting today, however I don’t think they finished as they left pretty early. Plumbing and electrical finals booked for next week, along with the fence (hopefully).

The niche tile looks a bit funny in photos, but in person you can’t see it and it will mostly be covered up by shampoo bottles etc. Can’t wait to see how all the black taps and fittings look next week.
