How do I bathroom / kitchen / extension? etc.

Nordlux or Flos glo ball no?

That curve 😍

Nice ones that emit light in all directions so not what I would choose for outdoors?

form > function

I thought glo ball but didn't think they were rated for use outside

Always, maybe.
But it's not function I am talking about but light pollution.

I love that glass porch thing

Yeah nice innit - Studio Hallett Ike

I’m not up on my ratings but assumed bathroom and outdoors would be much the same?

Lindy Lahja? Astra Kea? Are they orb lights? The shadow kind of does look like it, but there's a visible ridge, could be edge of the orb. There's a side picture of them at bottom of the link.

Dyke and Dean have similar but not these

Seamless rubber floor for kitchen - I know it's been done on here but can't find it. Who should I look at?

We used colourflooring.co.uk

Ugh... It has been pointed out that if we knock through part of our wall between the kitchen and dining room then...

1. Can't close the door when I'm on calls (98% of my day)
   
2. Can't block out smells
   
3. Noise travels through to upstairs and impact entertaining (lol a proper edge case)
   
4. Noise travels into the room
   
5. Permanent view of the kitchen for the people sitting opposite
   
6. View to a upvc kitchen door which gives you a view to our untidy alley way which gives our neighbours a view back all the way into our dinning room.
   
7. Some sort of funky sliding door would have to be a double slider totalling 13cm from the wall.
   
   

Kinda all goes back to why in the UK my default position is that open plan is shit. Fucking grumpy now.

The setting out on this project is very pleasing!

Anyone got a good recommendation for a company to replace UPVC windows with double-glazed sash windows in SE London?

Couple days on site helping get the doors in.

Yours was the navy with the dark terrazo backsplash right? Looked dead smart, needed dead flat sub-floor?

Did you lay it yourself? Mine's arriving this week and planning to diy so if you have any tips..!

Looking good my guy

Other half got some nice pictures of everything in. Big thanks to @dan531c for the plastering work and the advice on the floor pour.

Nice sisal kitchen rug

Haha thanks - it’s ikea. We bought it originally to help with the cold coming up through the floor but it’s sort of just stuck around.

That’s the one, yep - holding up nicely, albeit <1yrs use. It was laid down on ply, and I didn’t screed atop that even though the instructions suggest you should.

@TommyRides I did! Tbh the one thing i would do differently is simply not use glue next time - though for us it’s one continuous sheet with kitchen units on three sides, and a threshold bar thingy on the open side, so it can’t really go anywhere fast.
I 100% used too much glue, which is why i ended up with small lumps and clumps that show through slightly in the right light.
