A houzz contributor, not too long ago, had made a wine rack out of 4'x4' wooden pallets, that are used in the US to move a load of goods with a fork-lift truck. Perhaps they have them in your country. He cut them in half so they were only two feet deep and stacked them up to high counter height. The wood would be a nice contrast with your concrete, might add a little warmth to the space. cascio.offsite@gmail.com

@Dar - We hired a builder and he gave us this blueprint according to our requirements. We started constructing with the foundation and then after foundation the real problem came into picture. Now i'm worried about the front elevation only. We have already decided to make the kitchen open n combine it with dining hall. As per your suggestions we can combine the stair hall which is in our hands. Let me tell you the most important thing, we are constructing each and every room according to "Vastu Shastra". So we are forced to place rooms according to that. We can't change the position of the rooms. I hope interior decoration will help us to flourish our home.

Various area serves various purpose in a house, thus they have their own requirements. The ambience and character of every space could be unique yet in sync with the overall design of the house. Flooring plays a major roll in developing the character and mood of a space, so i would suggest to get a professional help (as there are various layers of detailing which adds on to the interior subconsciously) and work with them to identify what works for you according to your need, preference & lifestyle.

Chayya, These are not suitable as kitchen dado tiles. If you have budget and can manage would suggest to get these changed. Feel free to get in touch on a call for further queries on these. Thanks, Nitin Cornerstone Designs Bangalore
