Hi pankaj. Some lovely ideas above. Is that a door at the end of the passage? It strikes me, especially if you want to make the passage all white, that you might be able to give that door a special treatment to bring some drama to the end of the passage. That draws the attention to the door and away from the passage itself. You could just paint it a vivid colour. I think we tend to let our interior doors remain very plain and boring, when there is no good reason for that to be a rule. The one below would need some sort of backing for privacy, I guess, but I think to put metalwork on a door is a great idea that you could adapt in various ways. (Be aware of the dusting, though! Outside the rain will wash things clean, but not inside.) Also have a look at http://www.lushome.com/11-door-decorating-ideas-create-modern-interior-doors/58940 for some creative paint ideas -- I can't get those pictures to copy. I like the first one on that site. It's simple and geometric, and could very easily be adapted without hurting the budget.

Hello there, If the border of the diamond is green and inlaid marble is white that is fine; the vice-versa is great too. But to enhance the aesthetics, you need to do a diamond polish on them. Further, choose your furniture of a neutral or white accent instead of dark wood grains. Green borders are good too but try to keep them slim 3" for skirts. Any design could be bonded to any space, there's no rule for them. Just go with your imagination and choose color contrasts as you like. Whatever reference images you've selected, you should notice that the entire house is painted white as in a blank canvas. Decor and furniture go on top of that. Second, you should see the ceiling height, Since they are double height and high ceilings, it needs something to keep the space grounded and cozy. Hence the dark floors pull them down and give it an intimate arena. If you want to achieve the same feat, I would consider using mirrors and colored glasses as decor frequently and keep the interior paint scheme in white. It will do the reverse; expand the space by illusion of reflections. And you have already done that! Regards, Aurum Ideas and Spaces Bhubaneswar. +91-9078942136

Hello Gopa, You can do a partition with plywood on wooden frame. Go for a door with hinges as there is no benefit of a sliding door in terms of light . What is your intent for having a openable vs sliding door. Please be aware that after making an additional room the living room will look dark and long/ narrow. You can have a transome on the door in case privacy is not much of an issue. You will however have to depend on artificial lighting in case a full partition is done.
