Good Info! I keep trying to tell my husband he put the TV too high up on the wall, that it should be eye level when sitting (not standing), but he disagrees and won’t move it (in reality doesn’t want to redo work already done).

Tell him if he doesn't want to change the height, you'll need to purchase new furniture that supports your neck better. 🤣

Thank goodness there are some designers like you, Reynard, that take functionality into account when designing spaces. Excellent video! Re light fixtures: also don’t get light fixtures that are dust catchers and are too delicate as you’re just going to be either leaving them dusty or replacing the whole fixture because you’ve broken it when trying to clean it. Also, no fly or moth trap light fittings! Eek - looks terrible with dozens of bugs trapped in there 🫤

I agree with the lack of safety with open staircases, Yikes! We recently and had to move in a pretty tight real estate market. The location, general floor plan and neighborhood are great…except for the ‘open’ primary bathroom! What were the previous owners thinking when they remodeled this way??!! We have two contractors working up bids now to rectify this nonsense asap! Meanwhile we are using the 2° and guest bathrooms. 🙄

Another one to add that I see all the time now by builders is the half glass open shower and sometimes the bath is also in it. These people have clearly never had a shower on a cold day. Cheers from Australia.

"They do look nice on social media ... but .... " now that is damning with faint praise. Natural stone showers? I have seen a couple of them that were excellent, but they were open-air in tropical areas, with ferns and moss instead of mold and grunge. We decided early that there would be a "media room" and a living room. It's been great.

The edison bulbs were cool back when they "got trendy" but they were used in 1 - places that fit that decor (cool restaurants/bars etc) & 2 - they were dimmed WAY DOWN to just be a low glow, mood lighting of sorts, not as main sources of lighting - (these where generally low-lit places to begin with). Open bulbs like that just scream poor 3rd world homes where that's all they could do for lighting cuz they had not fixtures for them.

I agree with open bathrooms, bare bulbs, staircases need rails .... However, which counter top surface can 'take' a hot pan off the stove without showing damage to either pan or counter? ALL of them, stone, tile, formica, quartz, etc., recommend using cutting boards or trivets ...

Bare bulbs especially edison ones kill my soul! Didnt realise the short backsplash was a thing to avoid so i elarned something new! Our kitchen was orignally a 200mm short backdplash but i changed it to full height to go to underside of overhead cabinetry. So lucky i changed it and only did so to utilise more of the stone we had purchased. Dodged a bullet there

Those damed bare light bulb racks! We rented when we first moved here and they looked lovely in the photographs. My god though, they were set at eye level over our table and burned with the fury of a thousand suns 😵 Now that we finally, finally have our own place (🥳) we went with LED dimmable with colour lights throughout. They are right up on the ceiling and you don't even think about them when they aren't on. When they are on, they give a lovely glow (we have other light sources too, I've been paying attention to this channel 😆). Our place is so tiny we have no stairs, but I definitely would put function over form if we ever go for a place that does have stairs. My gosh, I don't want to die because of dangerous stairs

Thanks for mentioning the TV over the fireplace. This a pet hate of mine (I worked in pro audio/video/smarthome) it is definitely to be avoided for comfortable viewing. Drop down TV mounts are one solution, but I prefer to use an electric projection screen that lowers from the ceiling in front of the fireplace as this is invisible when not in use.

Love the pebbles but need to rethink, toothbrushing the floor, maybe not. I could see outdoor poolside or outdoor shower, bleach water. Etc. I wanted to start a company for fantasy floors. Look like stars, water, koi pond, rattan weave, flowers, smooth though but what substance not coating or plastic. Yes, taste is questionable, but could be fun exciting.
