    Oh my, I step away for awhile and everything has changed. Glad Fred is on board. Glad to see the wet room pic - thx Fred. Pankaj did you ever reply to my question about how you prefer to enter the bathroom? I think Opt #2 may still be viable too. That's if you don't mind this type of entry into the bathroom. The shower could stay by the window if it is indeed set up like Fred mentioned. I personally would want to move the toilet from the original location regardless.

    Hopefully we can get a reply to all the things I am assuming before we go too far in another direction. It is around 1 AM there. These thoughts are just based on other projects I have worked on from India and may not all apply.

    Need help with choosing a dressing table for my room.

    Your wallpaper might be the best feature for your dressing room and just let it show right through a clear acrylic dressing table.Or you could continue with your touches of gold on a new vanity or by using a bit of gold leaf on an antique one. Add a gold chair to a rosewood vanity to continue with your bedroom look. My personal favorite is #4 ,5 & 6 below. Love the curves and a desk will work too.

    I assume that the pieces you have displayed in this corner are items that mean a lot to you. I remember being a newlywed and had to do solely with what I had on hand to make our house feel like our very own home. I added/replaced pieces a little at a time and finally completed the look I was envisioning. Below is my suggestion on how to get the items a bit more balanced to the eye. But in the end, I believe that the decors in your home all depends on how they make you feel in your heart when you look at them. The first one made use of some books and made sure the wall outlet was hidden within the wall shelf - assuming there is no constant need to use them. The second is an example where if you can buy only one piece to add, I suggest a piece to completely cover the outlet and take advantage of the conversational bubble style of the wall shelf. Have fun!

    Hey Amy

    I too feel option two is good and let's us finalise the same

    Suzanne

    I don't think reading area wod fit in the room so we have to leave it... The toilet is installed In wall f and is correct according to Vaastu used in India

    If we use the same option as per builder then we get a dry zone in the bathroom from wall k/l till d....

    I just have a confusion what to be done there.....

    Freinds let's finalise the things... After a long discussion I think I can see my room geting good

    thanks Fred

    for joining the discussion...

    Yes this building is mainly built of concrete and all the walls in play here are concrete except the two new ones in the bathroom

    it have only one door as the plan was modified by us to make by room bigger and get the room as per vaastu follwed here.

    The bathroom window frame is aluminum.

    You are correct that standard bathroom in India is what you might call a wet room as per your picture, i have done the modifications to create a dry zone and wet zone as used in western countries..

    the toilet is on the f wall...

    if you all think the window is big we could get the window small to the size you all think is correct...

    now as we are agreeing on option 2....

    Amy/ Suzanne . Frerd.

    what sod we do on the dry zone in the bathroom....we can get the washbasin installed at wall E.. somthing like the image attached...

    i think we could even have somthing on wall e inside the bathroom plzz see what options could be perfect..

    last but not the least the wardrope i want is somthing like the images i attached.. what would the size of the same..

    and we cod get the bed on wall h faccing wall c

    Pankaj, do you see your bedroom and bathroom like in the floor plan below?

    I think the window in the bathroom is fine. Now that I have a better idea of what is a standard bathroom in India, I believe your builder is correct the way he did it. I think you don't need to change the size of the window but you certainly need to frost it.

    I think your wash basin is big enough to have room to put towels under just like in the image.

    As for the closet, it is hard to say how big is the closet in the image you showed us but I think yours will be smaller. However, I think you still have a pretty good size closet. Personally I would be happy to have a closet that big.

    Pankaj, according to the builder of the above the dimensions of that closet is 11'6"x7' with a 3'4" walkway at its most narrow point (the countertop area). Your's would be slightly longer and more narrow but the difference is somewhat negligible.
  • suzanne_m

    Pankaj, I think your wash basin is so big, it will look too empty if you don't have 2 sinks. As for what to do to fill the space on wall D, I don't know really. You could put a plant on the corner and add a nice big wall art between the wash basin and the plant. In the floor plan below, I also added a long mirror on wall B and a bench on wall I.

    Let me know if you want other changes. Once you are happy with the floor plan, I will email it to you.

    Panjak, your wall design behind your bed is really nice. I think for the television wall, you can do something like what your dad has.

    I am going to email you the last floor plan now :).

    I am also going to look at your discussion on your formal living room.

    Hi Pankaj, I am putting these images together here because I keep getting lost. I think the North-South direction is wrong on one of them. This could be important for later conversations about Vaastu.

    Another couple questions occurred to me. Do you have digital tv and flat screens or analog tv and tube type tv? Also, are you in an area where the buildings are built right against each other, or do you have a yard all the way around the building?

    Pankaj, if you are going with the plan I emailed you, you need to re-do wall I and J since the door between the closet and the bathroom has to be about 26 in. below between wall B.

    Pankaj, if you can't move the entrance door to the bedroom, you can't have deep storage on the wall where the television is. If you leave the door as it is now, I would recommend that you put only 6 in. deep shelves on it.

  • suzanne_m

    Actually Pankaj, if you really like the shelves, I think you can install some on the wall without moving the door but the shelves should not be more than 12 in. deep. You will need walk around them but not by much. However, if you do that, you have to make sure that you don't put shelves behind the door because you won't be able to open the door completely.

    suzanne have u seen my other discussions???
  • suzanne_m
    10 years ago
    Actually, Pankaj, I was looking at it now and I was trying to understand something: I saw in the other discussion that your bathroom size is 11'-8" x 8'-0". I drew the bathroom in this discussion as 12'-0" x 9'-0". I can make the changes it is no problem but what I don't understand is that you say that the bathroom is 8 feet wide and that the window is 8 ft wide but when I look at the window, the window is much smaller than 8 ft.
  • suzanne_m

    I meant to say : when I look at the pictures you posted above the wall is wider than the window.

    Pankaj, just to be sure: Is the 12 ft wall the one where the window? or is it where the wash basin is?

    Pankaj, I think you will need to change wall I and wall J. You will need to make the wall I shorter and the wall J longer.

    Pankaj, just to tell you I made a mistake on the length of the vanity. It is 4'-8" not 6'-2". I am going to email you this one.

  • suzanne_m

    Pankaj, I just realized that initially you told us that the bathroom area was 12'-0" x 9'-0" and later you mentioned that it was 11'-8" x 8'-0". In the last floor plan, I forgot to change the bathroom with the new dimensions. Below is the floor plan with the correct dimensions for the bathroom. The bedroom is ok, I drew it 19'-2" x 12'-6". The new layout does not change the way things are placed. Everything still fit. The only difference is that the vanity is now 4'-4" long instead of 4'-8". and the toilet is closer to the shower by 1'-0".
    Can you give me the lengths of the walls K and L. They are the walls between the vanity and the shower area. I will send you the new layout once you give me the length of these 2 walls.
