Before the weekend we had received a message from the architect that the marble guy could not put marble on the arches in the bathroom, so she suggested straightening them out. This was not acceptable as I really like those arches, so today we went for a council of war at which it was concluded that the marble would end a certain distance below the arches, the arches themselves would be lowered a bit, and everything above the arches would be painted, possibly a deep textured blue. I’m not fully sold on the deep textured blue as there is a risk it might look cheap, but we will make sure to have samples put there before giving the go-ahead. We also agreed on a niche, the placement of a cupboard for toiletries, and possibly a ledge. And, in the kitchen, a little space below the window for plants and (in my rather practical mind), dish soap.
Heaven knows when we’ll move in, though.
