    The drain pan area looks fabulous!! I love the way you worked out the cuts! 👍🏼 please don’t paint all the wood - what about just some Osmo? The natural color looks great with the walls!

      @clairetremblay3023 11 часов назад +4

      Osmo is a good idea (in condition it's going to be redone in few years of course...). The color could repeat the color of the floor in the house.

      Although I favor white ceilings, if everything else is white the natural wood might be a good contrast. Just don't stain it to be darker than it already is.

  • @franj.1461
    @franj.1461 11 часов назад +11

    Just a suggestion, leave the wood natural, as white would look messy very quickly. Especially with hanging plants that need to be watered. Or you could stain it, even if you stain it a light colour, the texture and grain of the wood with the stone would look warm and cozy.

  • @marieratcliffe4804
    @marieratcliffe4804 11 часов назад +11

    it would be criminal to paint the natural beauty of the wood. have you thought of just varnishing it. i bought some osmo on billys recommendation for my work tops and its a fantastic product, but there are cheaper varnishes out there too. the outside/living part of the garden is looking fabulous. can't wait to see the 1year one to remind us of all the hard work you and loui has put into the building

    @uscitizen898 12 часов назад +9

    As much as I love white interiors, there is something truly unique about the wooden ceiling and the plant area you created for Anna. Have you considered using a clear outdoor sealant on the wooden areas instead of painting? I also think that having all that white may be somewhat blinding due to the sunshine in that area. Either way...I cannot wait to see it all completed! You have done a marvelous job creating a beautiful area out of nearly nothing. 🙂. I

    I agree with many others--don't paint the wood. Love the natural look with the render and tile. If you want to lighten/seal it, how about a "white-wash" that allows the wood grain/tones to show through....but not white white, a color to match the render. Just my opinion.....♥

    Ah, Edd and Anna, the chocolate-box is moving along, and looking luscious. I agree with other comments. Do not paint the wood, but Osmo for rich elegance that complements the stone. White will look like a lab or industrial site, and discount all your jewel-like, custom finishes. Perhaps a light, creamy butter-yellow shade (capturing the same yellow found in the stones), but avoid white at all costs or the friendly, inviting, homely feeling may be lost. Clinical-looking colors (whites and blues) leave one feeling cold and unwelcome, and provide little comfort, no matter what some may say. Perhaps when you said white you meant "whitish" (light yeĺlowish), and I misunderstood. OK, then.
    The white shutters outside are OK, but inside, next to your elegant, classy stonework, I think, you will silently, but surely, diminish the monetary and emotional returns that you are seeking, after having spent so much thus far, trying to attract the high value and confirmation you are seeking, from your renters/occupiers of this magical space. Even white ceilings, not colored with a bit of wall colors added to the stock white, miss the mark.
    A high-quality interior designer would never use "just white" (though hundreds of shades of white are available), under most conditions,
    unless it matched the background wallpaper or appliance white (but then, matching the precise white).
    This adorable, remarkable chocolate-box looks marvelous, so far!!!
    Your tall, blue door will be the jewel on the crown, appearing as if a jeweller has set a sapphire in its blue or black metal setting. I can't wait.

    By painting the wood in white Ed it's going to be more harmonious with the front of the house. It's going to be less «High maintenance» also. The ceiling there is going to look higher also. An other option, you can do it also with Osmo with few coats to protect it better. You are at the better place to decide. :)
