hello. I have removed a wall adjacent to my living room which was common wall for lobby. I have constructed a partition made of veneer on one side, back side of which is storage for my kitchen. I wish to know what I can I do with furniture placement so that place looks as spacious as it is. I have used the low lying beam niche area for TV unit.

Hello, It depends on the thickness of the veneer used earlier. If you are lucky and a thick veneer was used then it can be repolished. You need to get it inspected. Costlier option would be to have it veneered again. And if you are not repulsed to paint, as you seem to be to laminates, even that is a viable option. Thanks. Amit CORNERSTONE DESIGNS Bangalore.

Hello there, It looks like the wood primer has got the wrong shade. It should have been teak/pine. He has applied walnut primer. The only solution is to sand off the entire primer and reapply an appropriate coating. But it is going take some skills as well. Go for a clear coat instead after sanding. It will bring out the grains and textures very well. Regards, Aurum Ideas and Spaces Bhubaneswar
