yvonne, yes i guess we can use it in the dining. The dinining room is small and doesnt have any windows. the kitchen has a lot of natural light that will come across to the dining due to the open kitchen plan. We will be buying new furniture for the dining. We could buy a glass top table with wood chairs / wood table with wood chairs. The room will be painted offwhite similar color as the base of this fabric. All walls will be painted the same color by the builder, Afer taking possession of the house we can repaint it where needed for accent wall etc. Its an appartment, we live in India.

You're dreaming. Lovely to look at but....where do the toothbrush and toothpaste and hand soap and brush and comb go? In that drawer you need to stoop to reach? Or do you carry them in from somewhere else each morning? To make this a working bathroom you need cabinets to hide things or shelves to put things on.This sleek vanity invites unsightly clutter to mess it up in real time. And that faucet is not one i'd recommend: i have one so i know. A drippy hand reaches to shut off the water and all those drops from your hand land on the shiney chrome spigot and gets it water-spotted with every use. Extremely unsightly and annoying.Also ours started leaking from the gap between the control and the upward tube leaving streaks of calcium deposits along its entire length. You'll be working MORE to keep this bathroom looking clean and tidy cuz there's not sufficient nor practical storage to hide stuff...But I agree...it's beautiful.

I had storage under my stairs in our previous home and am having it done again. I loved it. I put seasonal things such as candles, wreaths etc., that I could not put in the attic in there. I had considered making shelves/built-ins in the hallway under the stairs but I decided I would rather just have storage. It is also a great place to store the vacuum cleaner. Mine is open all the way under the stairs, the framer was going to wall it off and make it like a coat closet but I felt like that was wasting space. IMO it's great.

Yep, I agree it's nowhere near Scandinavian. Although I tried hard to emulate it with the resources I had and conflicts with other family members, but oh well. But I'm trying to emulate the Scandinavian theme at least in the paint job. Do you think if I somehow achieved it at least in paint job it won't look good? I really like the color scheme of Scandinavian design. Edit: I really like the minimalism and coziness scandinavian design provies. Although, I do have to mention that I didn't mean to say that the photos that I've posted are necessarily scandinavian. I was just talking about the colors especially the white color.
