Karen over at Karenzae Studios posted this little beauty in the Adelaide area and asked, how would you decorate this space? I let her know I that I would accept the challenge. Let the Cyber-Renovation begin. Enjoy, Heidi

And convert this area into a sun room like this.
Country Living
Or just add a little architectural interest to the ceiling and porch posts
and some interesting furniture.
This is half of the kitchen which is just off of the great room. Here is how I would decorate it.
De Poitiers
Only I would add a matching black framed mirror on the right instead of the door.
The great room consists of the living and dining.
All I see are the exposed beams, one of my favorite traits of a house,
only these are not doing it for me.
John Stefanidis
Painting the beams and the trim the same will help,
since the architectural interests are good, but not great enough to stand out in this case.
Huka Lodge
This is one of my all time favorite great rooms and as you can see, everything is the same color
and it is awesome! I also love the chandeliers here, just the right size,
timeless and a great balance of feminine and masculine. So the lights are a must, 2 please.
Restoration Hardware
I Love how crisp and happy this room looks so this is my pick for furniture in this space.
Perhaps I would do 2 sofas facing each other
and 2 chairs side by side, since the room is roomy.
Here is the kitchen, kinda small, but that is ok. I find a small kitchen to be very efficient.
Sarah Richardson
The fridge might have to go and come back as a under counter unit,
because that is all I see when I look at the before picture.
I love how the range and vent hood with the corbels is all I see in Sarah Richardson's kitchen.
Fabulous. Creamy Dreamy.
with slip covers, but here is what I have in mind.
I think it could accommodate more seating for the perfect Aussie Summer Barbie.
David Duncan Livingston
I would add a lovely arbor and grow something very climby, like wisteria, bougainvillea, or roses.
This house is too perfect looking with loads of straight lines and order. It could definitively use
some chaos from a vine to soften it up.
I hope you enjoyed the reno, I know I did. Heidi
