OK... but the wire wont be lower as it is fixed now. The wire in the pics below is the wall facing each other. They were leveled on equal height but the beam on one wall makes it seem a little above. But i think you guys are absolutely right that up and down lights wont look good there. I think you are right about down lights lessismoore. Would it look good if i go with two different lights on opposite walls??? it would look odd right.

HI RinaI do agree I love jewelbox rooms, but I consider them more cosy ... and with a grey marble floor it goes all Versace Italianate! I am trying to balance the colours by bringing in a pattern on the covers rather than plain. I feel this will bring colour without overpowering the room. In the pictures I showed above, the rooms are basically neutral but the colour is brought in via pattern - I think this might be the way to go...Ideally a green or blue on a subdued grey would be the best, but I dont know what the market is like for Sumit...Cushions can do a lot to tie in the other white/grey elements.Shelley - navy is a good suggestion, but as Sumits area is quite tall and thin, trying to keep the general area light Any more suggestions most welcome. These are just ideas after all and Sumit will choose what works for the room in the end ;-)

Hello, I feel that you can design this bedroom by having 1 opaque wall at the back, and 3 transparent walls using glass & steel or glass & wooden french doors. The walls should be white, with minimal accents of blue or green, use 2 layers of curtains with sheer, and brass hanging lamps. All doors can be white PU paint. Waterproofing this bedroom will be essential, so make sure you have sealed all joints and surfaces, with a minimum of 2 feet roof overhangs. Hope this helps! G

The original tiles provided by the builder were 595 x 595 mm. And they were used continuously through the open kitchen and the passage that connected to the bedrooms. Changing tiles in the living room alone up to the edge would have resulted in non-alignment between the old and new tiles. Because currently the closest size available is 600 x600 mm. We did not want to disturb the kitchen tiles which were intact. So what we did was to retain the old tiles on the outer periphery of the living area, and replace the space in the middle with 600mm square tiles laid on the diagonal. So the problem of aligning 595 mm with 600 mm was eliminated. We chose Nitcos's Bianco Beige which is a beautiful mocha and contrasted reasonably well with the original cream tiles. Then we inserted Nitcos's mosaics into the pattern. Then created a simple dark chocolate border with Nitco Cuero to contain the centre 'carpet' pattern
