Hi all, I have been terribly busy recently & haven’t had time to add much here, but please feel free to ask questions & we can discuss etc. This community is all about the members bringing questions and getting help with their interiors -so spread the work with your peers! Thanks

If one thing in your home had to update its CV, what would it say? Bought as: a dining chair Currently responsible for: clothes, bags and anything that needs a home for five minutes. Or maybe the spare bedroom is officially for guests but also works as an office, ironing room and parcel depot. What was it meant to do, and what job is it actually doing now? Give it an official job title if you like. I suspect most homes have at least one hardworking overachiever.

You can add one feature to your home. No budget or building constraints. What are you choosing? A home cinema, a library, an indoor pool — or something entirely your own?

Have a look at this bathroom design and tell me how I can improve it? & forgive my assistant ChatGPT for it’s hallucinations!

Would you design your home differently if nobody else was ever going to see it? I've been thinking about this. We all have ideas about what a home should have. A proper dining room, a good sitting room, a spare bedroom for visitors, a lovely kitchen. But how much of that do we actually need, and how much do we have because it's what people expect? If you knew that nobody outside your family was ever going to see your home again, would you do anything differently? Would you get rid of the dining room? Turn a bedroom into something completely different? Have something in your house that other people might think was a bit mad? I think we sometimes design our homes around how we imagine we should live, rather than how we really do live. So I'm curious. What would you change if you didn't have to consider anyone else's opinion? And perhaps the more interesting question is, what's stopping you?
