Reader’s question

“In my open plan space an imaginable corridor separates the living area from the kitchen. In the living room I have one wall painted olive green and the others beige – gray. The kitchen cabinets are dark brown, and darken the space. So I would like to suggest me what color curtain to choose for two patio doors located in this area and close to the lounge area. In the living area I have chosen curtains in turquoise, olive brown because the furniture is dark brown. I would like to create a modern look in the area, bright and harmonious at the same time."

"My open plan kitchen living room is 4.25 x 4.15 m. The kitchen is arrayed along one wall. I am concerned about being able to arrange into this small space a sofa, a TV and a dining table with 4 chairs, having available only a wall length 4.15 m".

"I am planning a total renovation of the bathroom in my apartment and I would appreciate if you could give me some decorating ideas to become functional and pleasant. I have attached a dimensioned plan of the space. Sanitary ware should remain in the same position. I would like the new bathroom to have a modern minimalist style, providing freshness and relaxation, something like a "Zen" atmosphere. Thank you in advance".

Reader’s question
"Could you give us some ideas on how to arrange our furniture in the living room and what paint colors to choose for the walls?
The walls in our living room are painted in two shades of gray. Unfortunately, the atmosphere is not at all what we would like to be, i.e. a warm, sweet, friendly, cheerful, welcoming one that beautifully blends with the furnishings. We have a gray sofa, purple glass coffee table and walnut dining table with brown upholstered chairs. The curtains are in shades of purple, pink, gray and a very pale shade of ice. We have attached a floor plan of our space. We would like the living room set to be near the fireplace. We greatly appreciate your advice".
