I thought you were going to do the wall a different colour, didnt realise you meant all the same.

I was going to, but then i decided against it as i thought it wouldnt look quite right, played around with it in PS then decided to paint the whole lot the same colour.

same,thought the false wall would have been a feature wall,different colour from the rest.would look better if the actual wall was the origional colour with the dark red false wall imo
Great work though mate

Looks good, I would have left the background wall the creamy colour though! Red can make a room look smaller and darker.

Friday worked my ass of and turned the garden from the pic above to this, not bad for a days work!
Shifted out 1 ton of turn and shifted in 3 tons of stone! still a bit more to do but at least its a usable space now!
Also built myself a new gate as we had a see thru steel one and people could see straight into our kitchen! wasnt an easy job as the posts are over 1" on the piss so had to make the gate to fit the wanky posts!

Garden looks ace, as said would be nice with a bit of greenery, maybe in the future just dot a few low maintenance plants around?
The feature wall - looks good as it is, I think it would be too big a space to paint the darker colour, love the effect of the floating TV though
I can recommend the Lack Ikea furniture but only if you want a cheap, short term solution. The coffee table we have (£12 new in chocolate colour) is peeling and the legs didnt screw together properly (the holes were a few mm short of being deep enough for the legs to match up) and its only just over a year old...
