Your Home Made Perfect

Anyone watching? Bench Seat Man has gone!

It is rather small inside.....but I can see why they're emotionally attached to the armoire.

They have some lovely stuff

Nope don't like this idea. Looks wrong with their existing furniture

They did say their budget was £65,000, didn't they? I'm boggling a bit at what they seem to expect to be able to do with what seems a relatively modest amount

Yeah can't see that kitchen being done to that level at that price and it doesn't match their traditional style.

I am in the SE and it cost just shy of £15K just to have my stairs turned around and a corridor created - nothing fancy.

We lost Bench Seat Man only for him to be replaced by Bench Seat Woman! Really don’t like her design, where are the work surfaces.?

Interesting they've both gone for funny patterns in the skylights.

This design seems to be much more "them"

Oh dear....I'm not really keen on either of these.

So if all the knick knacks are in the kitchen cupboards where does all the normal kitchen stuff go? In the island?

Not keen on this one - too red brick.

I cannot believe an architect has visualised net curtains 🤢

I'm not feeling the love with either of these designs at all. I don't like their taste though so maybe both architects felt constrained by the need to include all the frou frou touches, the armoire etc - I felt neither of them were comfortably playing to their strengths.

I like elements of Will's design but their main complaint was always being in each other's way in the kitchen and they are going to be replicating that, having to edge around that massive kitchen island.

I much prefer the second one and I think it it more their taste. Not saying I would have it but it is much more interesting than the first and may well be in budget, which would be a first 😀

That's surprised me!

Oh there goes the budget. Already.

I think the first design is just more practical. Will put in The Stairs of Death.

Yep, surprise, surprise......

Did I just hear the budget is now £110K?!

It is indeed!

Have they really gone from that big oval dining table to an indoor picnic table?

They look delighted with it.

Why are people not upfront about what they can actually afford and how much they are prepared to spend BEFORE the architects draw up the plans?! Surely that could completely change the designs?
