How did you finish the walls so that they could be under water?” “stone, rock towers - shallow pool. Not quite it but on the right track” “Simplicity. Hidden water fall. Reflecting pool.

and practical benefits. This single photo inspired me to attempt an indoor water feature in my home. It's my hope that placing it near our music room” “timer or humidistat? Lastly, is the water reservoir auto replenished with a float valve and it's own plumbed water source? I have to assume evaporation” “How is the water feature installed and who was the manufacturer? Is it partial custom with” “know the total gallon capacity of the reservoir (since it must hold all water in the system) and the GPH of the pump to get the even flow across the back” “during framing with a base for the tank and a concealed space above for the water fall spray. Provided the plumbing with the pump in the hall closet. Installed”
Save Email In the guest room, a similar padded headboard treatment is used for two twin beds. By day the room is an office, and the end-to-end beds act as daybeds. When guests come they can be used as beds. “It’s a smart use of space, and it allows people to really use an extra bedroom as an office,” says Anderson. “You can easily pull them away from the wall and push them together if you wanted to.”
Add to ideabook by Phoebe Howard Contrast textures in a sitting area. Sofas and chairs that are soft to the touch are fun to sit on. Consider soft fabrics like cotton, silk velvet and brushed linen. Layers of textures with tables and rugs will spark your interest and make you want to touch each element. Tell us: Do you decorate with the five senses in mind?
Add to ideabook by John Lum Architecture, Inc. AIA Touch Look around your room and see if there is any small area that can be textured. Adding wallpaper or a painted faux finish will enhance the textural experience of a room. Use materials that are curious and make you think, "I wonder what that feels like."
1. Comfortable seating. The ultimate sunroom acts as a second living room. It need not scream wicker. You may bring in upholstered seating, plush pillows and throws, indoor-outdoor rugs and occasional tables that you would think to use inside. A proper sunroom has electrical outlets to support floor and table lamps as well.
This room is so interesting and it works on so many levels. Lots to learn here about working with a neutral color palette. First, I would like to point out that all of the above elements are included: Different shades of color, multiple textures that are of high quality, interesting shapes and different materials, and wonderful patterns. But there is even more going on here that contributes to the success of this design. 7. You can mix your neutrals. Most people think a neutral color palette is made of a bunch of beige. But there are other neutral colors and you can mix them if you want. In this room, the designer has mixed shades of beiges and browns with several shades of gray: light silver-gray, medium steel gray and also deep charcoal. 8. Add black (or almost-black) for punctuation. In this room, the black on the cowhide chairs adds a strong bit of punctuation and so does the dark color on the rugs — more of a charcoal. In fact, notice that in all 4 photos you've seen so far, there is a little bit of black or near-black. The first room has black lampshades, the second room has black picture frames and espresso wood, and the third room has that super deep almost-black wood. ...

The area rug also is patterned, and if you click on the photo to enlarge it on your screen, you can see that there is pattern in the drapery fabric as well.
2. Use multiple textures that contrast well. If the seating pieces in this room were all microfiber, the room would fall flat. But the fabrics on the two sofas and the chairs have distinctively different textures, and they contrast well with the leather piece in the foreground. The drapery panels are the same color as the walls, but the walls are a matte texture, and the drapery shines. 3. Use high-quality texture. Yes, note that I said "high quality." When you don't have dazzling colors to create interest and get attention, other aspects of your room become even more important. Texture is one of them. In the room above you can see how the light is reflected and absorbed at different angles on the fabric of the sofa by the window. Even in the photo, I can tell you that is one luscious fabric. Also, the leather on the chair in the foreground at the very bottom of the photo is definitely not your cheap, bi-cast or bonded leather. Take a little time to educate yourself on the grades of leather. Tip: Mix the "high" with the "low." I know we don't all have the budget to use $300-per-yard designer fabrics, high-end furniture, original art pieces and one-of-a-kind accessories throughou...
1. Use many different shades of your neutral color. Whether you have decided to work mostly with taupe or cream or gray or any other neutral, using several shades of that color will add depth. In this room, the seating pieces employ four different colors: the draperies and walls are a different color, and the wood is quite dark compared to the upholstery
Could later replace glass windows in LR with glas garage rollup doors
like the way rail slopes in.
Like picture, could have one painted of a gray ocean and storm
Here is a wave in its simplest form, and ready for lounging as well. I'd like one in the shade of a perfect summer veranda.
like planter along wall

Can you tell me what kind of stone this is?” “at night how I am going to properly set up the water vessel below the pots so they store and pump water correctly and efficiently. I don't know whether” “What kind of trees are behind the water fountains?” “This is perfect! What is below this fountains pumping the water?” “area do you live in? When it comes to natural stone, it depends on what is offered in your area. Some stones have to be shipped from out of state, and that” “lowers. After your fountain is set up cover the area with smooth black stones so that your basins are hidden and your pots pop! If you need further help” “that can make them very costly. You can take this image into a local stone yard and they mite be able to match it or identify it for you.”
