Having to spend any significant time in those spaces would lead to me being headachy and/or assaultive.

That is beyond loud and garish and into sensory overload territory.

Have to assume the owners have some kind of a vision problem, but how colourblind is it possible to be?

Try "Ottoman style interior design" maybe? Not quite the same (middle eastern vs Indian) but close-ish?

Follow-up question, what about laminate flooring for dogs? That's my other consideration besides LVP.

I know it has to be pretty well textured to have grip. I am wondering if I should be looking for a certain thickness or other measurements, just like with LVP.

Here's one I found that looks good. I'm going to check it out in person this weekend.

Yeah it's good
We chose a light oak woodgrain laminate and it hides scratches and dust well. The apartment my friend is renting has white vinyl floors that look horrible outside of a catalog.

Look up some Indian interior design firms, or even just googling contemporary Indian interior design gets better results. It looks like whats in now is the same kind of minimal modernism that's popular everywhere else, just with Indian influence instead of Scandinavian. Open floor plans, a lot of natural wood, and white walls left mostly empty. There's seems to be a preference for creams and browns over white and grey, the textiles are Indian designs, and art and focal piece furniture are more likely to be traditional Indian pieces rather than super-modernist ones.

Ooh, found an Indian home design magazine

That's both helpful, and enlightening as it somewhat aligns with the fiance's minimalist aesthetic. Now to conceptualize the minimalist hill station. It needs dead animals, living animals, guns, and be easy to dust.

Any grained laminate will hide scratches and be good for dogs. But the best is just the textured fake wood lino, it's bombproof AND piss proof. The Dadbucket replaced the whole downstairs with it after our last dog ruined a corner of the front room with ninja peeing.

Anglo-Indian furniture is some of my favorite furniture. There's a neat synthesis and tension between basically what Indian artisans traditionally made and what Europeans wanted (both in India and for export) that produced some really neat designs. No idea what is current in India however, though I know there are still alot of traditional artisans around and they make alot of hand knotted oriental rugs.

I think this is my least favorite part of the current worldwide design moment. You can't tell if a hip new store/restaurant is in the English countryside or Istanbul or Toledo or Tokyo.

Pip-Pip old chap! Last one in is a rotten egg what what.

I've been through 6 different colour/beam angle/brightness of bulbs in the bathroom before I found something that makes me happy, I'm hated at the local DIY store. Going to do the same procedure in the kitchen in a couple of weeks, this is what counts as fun as an adult right?

E: on the subject of lighting I want a pull down pendant for the dining room but I need to be able to move/offset it as the layout of that room changes a couple of times a year and the dining table is never in the centre.

Get some hooks / pulleys / hoops and put them in the ceiling wherever you want the bulb to be centred.

Actually that's really clever. Longer "decorative" cord, pulley over the target position, counterweight on a second pulley hanging from the looped cord. I'll have a good look at that today thanks.

I like the outside and some of the inside, but not all the furnishings. Oddly, the garage upper room (#20) is reasonably well done, considering that it's corrugated metal, though I'd wonder about sound reflections.

Oh this house. I sort of love it. It is cohesive in the very least.


Love to either climb over the bed or crab walk around the foot of it to get to my wardrobe.


I'm not entirely sure if those are real windows on the inside of that ceiling hole* but at least it tried to make some sort of decorative sense. Unlike those geometric sins that Mcmansion houses have. Someone with construction knowledge please to explain?

*from where ceiling cat is watching you?


This is where me and my drinking buddies plot the downfall of other nobles in Fantasy Britain and also smoke cigars.


And this is where me and my drinking buddies sacrifice 'fallen women' to strange and unknown foreign gods that are shaped like octopuses and maybe homoerotic phallic shapes while getting sloshed on brandy and making fun of hp lovecraft's pathetic rear end.
