So you're running two threads on this space? I think you'll be happier with the responses if you stick to one thread for the entire makeover, as it is all inter-dependent - foyer - living - dining. Now that I know that the living dining are together I'd suggest you use measurements from the blocked space above the windows to determine stripe width in the dining space if you go with the wide horizontal stripes I suggested. The pattern is already set for you if you take the measurements. You could also make the stripes the width of your lower window section, or half of it, but use the horizontal lines already in your space to determine the other stripes you may add.

Dear Mr. Dinesh, Since you are looking for securiity with aesthetics, you need to incorporate a security grill in form of a geometric lattice/ jaali. You can choose between SS/MS or corten steel to do that. Second, you need light and ventilation along with weather proofing. Hence, it would be a really good option to go for anodized aluminium doors/ WPC doors which would be cost effective and decorative as well.

One of my clients had no designated space for puja in their home, and they would have had to squeeze it into a passage somewhere. So when they came to me for ideas, I noticed in the floor plan that they had a beautiful covered verandah overlooking a private garden. The wall of that verandah was towards the east side of the garden. So I thought- why not carve out a rustic simple puja space here? Outdoors? The client was game. And this was the result- a 2'-0" x 2'-6" wood panelled niche in the wall, with a simple clay Krishna placed on a wooden bracket with a delicate hanging brass lamp

Hi Diksha, A door is an essential part of interiors. The doorway is the first impression of any space and it is essential to create your entry point as striking as possible. A door can not be left undone or not designed. I will like to give you a pro tip - keep the door color the same as your wall color or you can go a shade darker or lighter but don't change the color itself, if you want a sober look. Play with the handle design - mostly antique or matte black finish and don't have your door cluttered with elements (keep it simple). please find some attached door designs which you may like. if you like our suggestion, do write a kind review for us on our page. :)
