I would also suggest changing the lounge doors to cavity sliders which would give you more useable space as the lounge appears smallish. Danrt's thread shows some lovely feature sliders. Is there a window over your kitchen sink? It would be a shame to exclude someone in the kitchen from activity in the alfresco, especially when you're entertaining. (Oops, I see Nathan had that covered already!) With all those steps in the shape of the plan from the alfresco through to the rumpus, you will have quite an expensive roofline. It may even be cheaper to square up some of those rooms and gain some floor space at the same time. Re: Custom Design floor plan thread post them here!! 811Jul 08, 2011 5:19 pm NO, keep 2 basins. I hate seeing naked men shaving while I am trying to wash my hands after putting poo all over them in the loo trust me, keep 2 basins, separated by 2 doors. (if you have the space and can afford it) you will thank me when I come to stay. I do agree about the roof, every valley is about $3000 ?? so maybe put that into something else and if you can try and get some squared up...dont know how though!!! maybe pull the rumpus out in line with fam room I too lived in the uk for high school years and paris was a regular school trip. in my 20's went to euro disney the weekend it was opened. mickey in french...was just not right good luck with your build and when you start your thread, let us know on here Re: Custom Design floor plan thread post them here!! 812Jul 08, 2011 5:22 pm Kiwiii! I saw you are bored and want some plans? There havent been any updates on our parts, we are just "arguing" with wife now if we like ground floor solution or not... Basically she doesnt like the table right at the front door. We were thinking of putting it at the office space, but then the office? We dont want to put it on the first floor, as we like it to be next to kitchen and living space. - What we thought is to create a small space were teh office room is now, of about 2m wide x 3,5m long to be used as office desk, and then at the other side have the dining table. Look at example 3 - below. We might have a wooden bookshelf as a separator between office and dining... - Or do something completely different, change the way the kitchen is now, and take it at the other side, but i think the kitchen might be a bit cramped, also the table. through this, a desk can be put at the top side of the casual living room.... this is the original were you can see also dimensions and then some ideas...

We don't know if we are "digging" for things and details that we shouldn't be dealing with, or if it is correct what we are doing such extensive review... Because we are feeling a bit tired of not deciding somethings! In general in our lifes we are looking all details, but also we don't know sometimes what exactly do we want or need!

Thus there wouldnt be a direct connection to one another. The only issue with this would be that you would have the bed on the right as soon as you get in bedroom (i dont know if it is good for Feng Sui) and also that we wont be able to go straight out of the bathroom into the WIR (so we would need to hang a towel around us! ) Re: Custom Design floor plan thread post them here!! 817Jul 08, 2011 6:03 pm kiwi NATHAN...help fekish. they have been trying so hard to get it right..we need some professional help.

Re: Custom Design floor plan thread post them here!! 818Jul 08, 2011 6:06 pm thanks kb46 for your comments. I shall have a look at darnt's thread for the cavity sliders. With regards to the steps in the house shape - we have a bit of an odd shaped battleaxe block. Here's a pic: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ (that's better than trying to explain it!) We have tried to put the house as far back in to the triangular 'corner' as we can.......thus all the steps on the plan.... Oh, and when I first stumbled across the block I thought it was pretty flat...it does however, have a 3m fall across it! Our building thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=51657 Re: Custom Design floor plan thread post them here!! 819Jul 08, 2011 6:19 pm fekish, I have put the study and a coat cupboard by the door..BEHIND bi fold doors Can a loo be put under the stairs like in the uk? I have given you a walk in pantry, trust me..you want one of those. You are suppose to see the bed as you walk in the door, so where you have it is perfect. I have one door from bedroom into bathroom and then into wir...I LOVE IT, you dont need any towels!! keep it how you have it, you will love it, esp seeing that bath as you walk in, you will weep..it will look sooo pretty as the focal point of the room.
