Samples
I was not prepared for how many material samples would be delivered to this flat.
We have a mounting pile of samples of tiles, worktops, fabric for our bedroom headboard, wooden and rubber flooring, zinc for the roof... not to mention the 20-odd brick samples we still have laying around.
The amount of choice is overwhelming, and while I recognise this as a wonderful luxury, this acknowledgment is doing nothing, absolute sweet FA, for my decision making ability.
Despite us making thousands of conscious and subconscious decisions every day, there’s really only a certain amount your brain can cope with before fatigue kicks in. I’m pretty sure I’m reaching my max before lunch time most days, so, when Lanre suggests that we sit down and go through our ‘lighting strategy’, it makes me want to weep (I’m now giggling as I write this, sorry Lan!)
Anyway, while I continue to spin around in circles, here is some of what I’m working with.
