Reader’s question
“I am remodeling my house and I would like to help me with the floor tiles. The open-concept kitchen, living room and dining room form an L shape. On one half of the floor there are tiles, which we do not want to remove; however, we cannot find the same tiles to lay on the rest of the house. What do you suggest? Should I choose tiles of identical pattern or completely different separating one room from another? How to connect the existing floor with the new one?"
Although, the terms “organic”, “sustainability” and “eco-friendly” are appreciated in medicine and food, the same principles are rarely placed on the furniture and decorative items. It is also true that a lot of furniture is made with toxic materials and unhealthy finishes. The bed we sleep on, the sofas and couches, are made with chemicals and materials that are harmful to our health and environment. The good news is that several manufacturers are producing various sustainable products, with methods and procedures that save energy and do not pollute the environment.

I want to paint the wall behind the headboard purple and the others light gray. What is your opinion? What color curtains, rugs, duvet cover, bedspread etc. to choose? Could I add one more color? The curtain rods are silver."

“In my living room I have a 3.50m wide sliding patio door. We like panel curtains but we are concerned if they allow plenty of natural daylight to penetrate the interior space. The house has an intensive elongated shape and since there are no other windows it has very little sunlight. I am wondering if the house will be very dark with panel curtains."

The dining chairs have leather seat with walnut legs. In your opinion what color leather to choose, black or cream? Could I choose some other color, brown for example? I am not fan of pure white color. The space is approximately 40sqm and relatively bright and the floor tiles are in pale beige color.”

"I would like some wallpaper ideas for the wall behind the couch and the staircase. I have already ordered it but I'm not sure about the result; for the wall behind the couch, I have chosen black wallpaper with some silver details and a black one with details in red for the wall behind the stairs. I would also need some ideas on how to warm the space. Please find attached pictures of the space. Thank you in advance!"
