Exposed ductwork got me thinking... has anyone seen an example of plumbing being used for a secondary purpose, like a railing? You could have a poo poo sewer pipe from an upstairs bog running down the side of the stairs for instance.

So you're saying it not only happens but is rather common?

Thought of another one: a poo poo tube going through your wardrobe, for hangers.

I've sat in these in the original surroundings, and they're really weird because they're not uncomfortable at all, but have also been designed to not be comfortable enough for people to fall asleep in them, and force good posture:

This is what we're thinking:

(higher-quality laminate)

Probably leaving the oak paneling because we still have bad taste, but maybe a light grey on the walls instead of the current green-grey.


Thoughts?

I'd personally prefer darker floors but we're probably not removing the paneling until we sell the place (hopefully many years from now) and the mockups don't look so hot with dark floors & the oak panels, e.g.:


Wall and floor the same colour. Don't be a coward resale value is NOTHING.

My apartment in a house built in 1876 originally had fireplaces in literally every room, including the vestibule (which is the closest thing to a hallway it has). Why would you want a cold hallway?

The table is to put your shopping on while you take off your shoes.

Except Americans are animals and don't take off their shoes so :shrug:

The chair right next to the table would be real handy for putting shoes on and off too. But that will never happen, because that picture is from america. It's like there is an ancestral memory of things that should be in a foyer, but it has become untethered from reality and now includes pianos.

Yeah I have both those things at home but I actually use them for said purposes. I am not exaggerating when I say my life was poo poo before getting them.

It's still poo poo but at least my vestibular situation is vastly improved.

I do not, however, have a piano. Makes u think :thunk:
