It is a newbuild so rubbish paper thin walls warning.
I would like the colours to be modern, light, bright and to run in a theme, I don't like orange or green, but don't mind aqua type shades.
I was thinking of having cream tiles in the hall, kitchen, dining room and tiny downstairs wc. There is also a tiny study downstairs and a living room 16 x 12, that leads into the back garden by double doors with glass, there is no other light into the room, the doors are the 12 bit! The door entering the room is the opposite end of the room on the edge of the 16 bit of the measurement. There are no features in the room like fireplace etc. I may be able to apply for planning permission in the future to put in two small windows on the blank 16 wall as it is on a bit of a corner as the next house has a drive and is recessed further back on an angle so not overlooking anyone, of course subject to planning etc.
The back garden is tiny, which I am happy about. I want no grass, low maintenance. I was thinking of having some raised beds next to the boundary on one side, and maybe incorporating some paving in a chequer board patter with herbs in the gaps as a design feature some where, we need somewhere for dining and a trampline needs to be located in this postage stamp.
Cureently I have very old outdated furniture, so I can reuse some, would like to replace for definate the dining set and sofa.
all ideas gratefully received.
