Well ive just started renting my first house, im a AV fan but cant really have a huge amp and surround at the minute due to budget and being second floor.

anyway some before pics

Living Room its 7.4m x 4m at wide point 3.5m elsewhere

Eww Nice Colour Eh

Bedroom its 3.5m x 4m roughly

Bit Blue for me

Wont bother with kitchen and bathroom as they are basic lol

anyway after a lick of paint

Living Room

Bit better and yes my beds in the living room as i had just painted bedroom moved now lol

seating is temp though as ive more seats than space was gonna buy 2/3 seater just for me and GF but blagged the sofas in picture for free

Half living room is for living other half is gonna for PC and study area

Bedroom with feature wall (GF with that idea can you tell)

Next:

Put AV gear DVD player and Consoles in units and get replacement brackets for missing door

Rearrange seating
Internet and Phone (need line activated)
Possibly an amp and speakers depending on noise levels

Damn! That's so much better than the flats I lived in when I was a student (the first time round!)

the flats are where i work and its more a housing association but i asked and they said, if im doing anything major to ask so shower etc. i need permission but the guy above had me putting his up the week before, so i thought why not but the woman who is in charge was over yesterday and commented on my nice TV.

Few pics of my view

Thats the building i work in lol

Carpets coming on wednesday then i can actually get the decor done.
