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

Where to go for cheap furniture Goodwill, word of mouth from friends and family, yard sales, and moving sales. Wooden pieces I will buy from anywhere and will dive into a dumpster even, fabric/leather pieces much more picking with. Rugs are easy to clean or have cleaned. Always do the smell test, if you gag run away. You can paint anything, even fabric covered chairs. Get an idea of what you want your space to look like, and feel like. Create idea books in Houzz for each room. This will give you a guide to what you like. Less is more. You don't have to fill every room. Get basics first and everybody has a different idea of basics. Find yours. Put only things that you love in your house, and everything will look great. It will be a home filled with love.

Hi, Do you want to demolish the old house completely? You haven't shown the staircase in your new plan. The kitchen size mentioned by you is too big. I think 10x15 means kitchen and dining space both. For any help you can contact me on 7838154046 or write to me on pkassociates8@gmail.com.

Hello Jayant, As per Vastu the ideal space for the Puja room is the North-East area of the house. As per the plan that would be on the right wall of the bedroom adjacent to the wash yard. You can keep the Mandir in the place of the study table. In addition, the Mandir should not be on the same wall as the washroom. In case Vastu is not a concern, the current position seems optimal. in the right-bottom corner of the living room. As per the directions, that falls in the South-East of the living room and South-West for the entire house. As for the what the mandir, You can look at Corian or wood as the building material. Corian will allow light to pass through the mandir and you can install LEDs behind for a beautiful look. Wood is more earthy and charming and traditional. For the design I am attaching a few photos from the internet that seem to best suit the two possible options (living room and bedroom) We hope this helps!
