Shield the view from the street - use outdoor-proof plastic-ish fabric that can be woven in between the bars.

I once lived in a place with an enclosed back court that never got any sunlight. Some of the walls were painted light yellow in the bottom (ca 3 storeys) and light blue above that. This really brig...
What on Earth possessed that Swedish person to decapitate great numbers of unsuspecting lilies? That's an awful thing to do. They're much prettier in ...person?!

Give it to me now:
Yes, please. I need a [thing] , and I need it know. Would hate to sleep/sit/eat on the floor for 6 months.

This is not at all about what you asked about, but I can't help myself:
Get another cabinet, like the one you have to the right, and put it in the left corner. Take the legs off the de...
A few ideas:
Overall colour scheme: Beige - brown - red.
Replace the countertop - that'll have a great impact. Dark-ish wood (something wet-room proof). Get a small red v...
A few ideas:
Two dressers in front of the windows opposite the bed. Make a vanity between them, e.g. with a glass table top, or a long piece of wood that also acts as table top on the ...
We have two. One in the kitchen and one in the hallway.
We have painted the "step" and the "seat" in a shiny dark grey colour and left the rest of it unpainted. I like that you can st...
You can use ALC (aerated light concrete) for the steps instead of bricks. It's both very sturdy and fairly cheap. Plus it comes in bigger blocks. I'd put a floorboard on top the step just to make i...

It's Frédéric, not Frèdèric. Seriously - how hard can it be to copy-paste and proof-read?!?

The odd-number thing - always group things in odd numbers 3, 5, 7 etc: Screw it! I applaud the frank statement of objects grouped in two.

Congrats! The hardest part is very often to get your behind off the sofa ;-) I love the colours and attention to detail.
Paint!! Seriously - paint 95% of the house. Leave a wall or so to remind yourself why you painted the rest, eehr, I mean as an original feature.

Oh dear, that's awful!
