Quite taken with that... Not over keen on the strip of daylight under the front door though - That is going to be a very cold draught in the winter.
Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

Weird. They've clearly gone to some effort but the decoration just doesn't work. I can't quite put my finger on why, other than to suggest that not enough effort has been put into coordinating paint colours, furniture and curtains. It's messy.Dandie89 said:

Exactly! Even more so with this example, as the Staircase would then be straight off the hallway on the ground floor, so makes sense on both floors.ProDave said:
