Hi, Denze! We just published an article yesterday with many tips on rug selection and placement, including how much room you should leave between it and the wall (spoiler: 12 inches) - http://ourblog.atgstores.com/?p=9278 ... We hope you enjoy the rest of the tips and wish you luck on your decorating!

Surbhi, The width of the room is not mentioned here but from the scale it looks like it is ~8 ft. Effective living area would be close to 90-100 sqft . Grey and darker blue may not a be a suitable palette for this area. However, the tiling is already done. You may want to go for lighter shades for the remaining areas like wall paint (try 8260 Asian paints) and maybe brighter contrasts for sofa and curtains. Bright pastel yellow or beige may be a good combination for upholstery. Thanks, Nitin CORNERSTONE DESIGNS, Bangalore

Hello Ankit, We can recommend a few changes, 1- Drawing Room can be made in place of Master Bedroom. 2- Stairs to be swapped with MB Washroom. 3- Increase the Kitchen size and club it with Dining area. Thanks, Nitin CORNERSTONE DESIGNS, Bangalore.

New about to be furnished in new home, it is a 7.5x14 feet kitchen, with two windows one on east and one on south walls, so lightning issue isn’t there, the the counter is finished with a dark coloured granite. Planning for frosted / clear glass cabinets on top and opaque hard material on the lower cabinets. Confused if i should go with dark colours on the bottom or light colour or something in between. And the floors are having white tiles. Please suggest.
