My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Open plan dilemma - please, help!

6 years ago

Hello! We are three weeks away from starting building and I’m stuck at choosing windows and doors frames colours. We are creating one L shape space from Three rooms. This space will have two windows, one bifolding door and one French door. the long part of the L is South/north, the shorter - west facing.

dims, clockwids 4m - 7m(length of short part of the L), 8 m length length of long part and 3m width of the longer part.

We are leaning towards white for the windows and French door; do I make the bifolding doors grey?? Do I make all of them grey?

how do you feel about having windows/doors in the same space with different colours? Help, please!
