Is Company Car Taxation Really That Bad?
Being the proud owner of a company vehicle was once the ultimate luxury. You got a car that you could drive when and where you liked and you didn't have to worry about any of the costs that were involved. You got a fuel card to cover personal miles as well as business ones and another card to sort out any mechanical faults or replacement tires. It was trouble free motoring and the only downside was the small amount of extra tax that you had to pay. Unfortunately, times have changed and it seems that the company car owner is these days responsible for all that is wrong in the world. Pollution, congestion and noise problems are all down to us, as is the wear on the road surface and the failure of the economy. Okay, the last one might not be our fault, but the others are. It is for all of these reasons that owning a company vehicle is not nearly as much fun as it used to be, company car taxation (or as the Danes say "beskatning firmabil") has put an end to all of that.
These days a company vehicle is only good for company work, if you want to use it for personal fun then you are going to be hit in the pocket when the company car taxation people work out what you owe. So the company car is now a bad thing rather than a benefit, it is something that we are all best to avoid.
Hold on though, let's take a breath and think about this. Owning a car has become more expensive across the board, whether you buy it yourself or receive it as part of your remuneration at work. So has company car taxation really made us any worse off than we would have been anyway? We still get to drive a car without worrying about any of the upkeep costs. We don't need to concern ourselves with things like depreciation or insurance. All that we have to do is pay for our own personal fuel use and be deducted the company car taxation. When you look at it like this then it really isn't so bad. Especially if you are clever about which car you decide to drive.
We live in a world where green is good and we are encouraged to drive efficient cars (or as the Danes say "økonomiske biler") that don't do too much damage to the planet that we inhabit. Therefore, if we drive a more economical and less polluting vehicle we are rewarded with a lower level of company car taxation. So hybrids and electrics would seem like the obvious choice. Although, these aren't perhaps the most fun vehicles to drive and we might still feel like we are being punished because of our jobs.
So for a little bit higher company car taxation we could drive something that is much more fun, but still won't break the bank when the wages come round. We could drive something with a particularly economical engine, but something that isn't an obvious eco warrior go cart. Something like the VW Golf 1.6Tdi Bluemotion Tech S, because it isn't just the name that has gotten bigger. The car has too, but strangely it weighs less and the all new 1.6 diesel engine is super efficient and very low on emissions, which keeps the company car taxation people happy and your deductions low.
So it isn't all doom and gloom and we can still enjoy a company car, we just have to be more careful about what we choose.

I Have a Dream
- Friday, January 18, 2002
We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. Again and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force. The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny and their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom. We cannot walk alone.
And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall march ahead. We cannot turn back. There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, "When will you be satisfied?" We can never be satisfied as long as the Negro is the victim of unspeakable horrors of police brutality. We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities. We cannot be satisfied as long as the Negro's basic mobility is from a smaller ghetto to a larger one. We can never be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote. No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.
I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations. Some of you have come fresh from narrow cells. Some of you have come from areas where your quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecution and staggered by the winds of police brutality. You have been the veterans of creative suffering. Continue to work with the faith that unearned suffering is redemptive.
Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to South Carolina, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed. Let us not wallow in the valley of despair.
I say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal."
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a desert state sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
I have a dream today.
I have a dream that one day the state of Alabama, whose governor's lips are presently dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, will be transformed into a situation where little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls and walk together as sisters and brothers.

Jack Forsythe, the director of the Cobb Department of Public Safety, abruptly resigned after only a year on the job on Monday, citing a lack of sufficient funding and resources to "properly sustain" police, fire and 911 services in the county.
Cobb Fire Chief Sam Heaton, who served as the interim public safety director from September 2010 to January of last year, has once again been appointed to serve in an acting role, effective immediately, according to a statement issued by Cobb County Government Monday night.
Forsythe is officially on leave until Jan. 21, when his resignation formally takes effect.
In a heated letter dated Monday and sent to Cobb County Manager David Hankerson, Forsythe said that after conducting an extensive review of the department's many operations, he concluded that "there is an immediate need for a major infusion of resources to enhance the public safety resources in Cobb County."
Forsythe told Hankerson in the letter that "this critical need has now been exacerbated" with the arrival of the Atlanta Braves to Cobb County for the 2017 baseball season.
Forsythe said that Cobb DPS "will be able to provide the safest stadium complex in the country" for the Braves if his recommendations are followed.
But later in the letter, which was initially posted by
The Marietta Daily Journal, Forsythe referred to what appears to be plenty of acrimony between him and Hankerson over those recommendations.
Forsythe said in particular that there is a "crisis" within the Cobb Police Department over officer retention and recruiting new personnel. But he asserted that the county hasn't moved forward with a management study because Hankerson has said that the county "cannot afford the number of officers the report will say we need."
Forsythe also said Hankerson threatened to fire him in August and was told by the county manager that he doesn't "do things the Cobb Way. It appears 'the Cobb Way' is not to disagree or buck the current procedures . . . "
Forsythe was a former law enforcement executive with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the Federal Emergency Management Association/Homeland Security when he was hired last year. He had been living in North Carolina before his move to Cobb.
Forsythe concluded his letter by saying that Heaton, Cobb Police Chief John Houser and Cobb 911 Director Ann Flynn "are truly some of the greatest public safety officials I have ever had an opportunity to work with."
The Cobb government statement indicated that Cobb Commission Chairman Tim Lee would ask the Cobb Board of Commissioners to make Heaton the permanent public safety director.
"Cobb has a long standing tradition of providing excellent public safety services and I thank Mr. Forsythe for his efforts," Lee said in the statement. "We wish him the best in his future endeavors and we are glad to have an experienced leader like Chief Heaton who can immediately take charge of the agency."
Patch will have more reaction to this story on Tuesday.

After reading this, I am genuinely excited for Anduin come Mists! I hope they grow him into a great character, because so far I love where they're taking him. We certainly need more go-to offensive non-shadow priests out in the world. Things like the priest smiting the undead mayor beneath the keep in Dragonblight Alliance-side is something that really makes my inner lore-nerd squeal, and I can't wait to see more action like it!

It was a genuinely wonderful surprise to see this scheme at Moschino recently. This brand, at least at its London store, tend to use a lot of out-sized props in this gorgeous space. We're not always fans of what they do, however, hands up, the props here are superbly produced.....the detail is fantastic and our mouths watered at this sight. How cool do these guys look, hey?

Eating the placenta could be considered delicacy, often reserved for new moms looking to benefit from all the rich goodness that our afterbirth contains. You could eat it raw, in a smoothie, cook it up with some pasta sauce, or have it in pill form. I'm not sure it could ever be called delicious, but nutritious, yes. Still, it's often something for new mothers, and maybe for fathers who are adventurous eaters. Or maybe there is more to it than that.
New dad Nick Baines decided to eat his wife's placenta. It's what gave his child life, after all. If it was good enough for his kid, it's good enough for him. So first he tried some in a smoothie, and then he made some in a taco.
It's clear that Teen Mom Kailyn Lowry is a natural-minded mama -- some may even call her crunchy. She breastfeeds Lincoln and isn't afraid to post photos on Instagram, she reportedly didn't vaccinate her sons, and she ate her placenta ... in pill form. And now she's making a major statement about exactly what baby Lincoln will be eating ... or rather not eating.
Lincoln is about to be six months old, which is typically the time to start solid food. But Kailyn has other ideas.
In her new book, The Kind Mama, Alicia Silverstone covers everything from her pregnancy to her beliefs on circumcision and vaccination. Though the book has only been out for two days, it's already got tongues wagging, as does a recent interview the famous vegan actress did with People about her parenting philosophies, in which she says she's "not against Western medicine. The problem is we're using it as a first step for everything, even when it's not needed."
Alicia deserves applause for bravely putting that sentiment out there! She's right: We are far too quick to jump to conventional medicine "fixes" -- which can be disappointingly closer to temporary bandages than true cures -- for too many of our ailments.
It's no big secret that she's a fan of attachment parenting, but Kourtney Kardashian keeps defending her decision to co-sleep with her kids -- and I honestly don't understand why everyone makes such a big deal about it.
In a new interview with Redbook, Kourtney admits that Mason, 4, and Penelope, 19 months, often share a bed with her and Scott Disick -- though some nights they do start off in their own rooms.
She admits co-sleeping isn't something she set out to do, saying, "It's what came naturally to me; I didn't plan it. When I had Mason, I just felt really attached to him and wanted to bring him everywhere. He ended up sleeping with me, and I breastfed for 14 months."
One of the new buzz terms heard more when it comes to birth is "gentle c-section." Which is fantastic because with c-sections on the rise, we should all want women to have the most gentle one possible. Of course it would be better if cesareans were on the decline. With this gentle c-section, moms do skin-to-skin contact with baby right after birth. Seems like a no-brainer. Why wouldn't mama put baby to chest right after giving birth? Particularly after a c-section. But doctors seem to have forgotten the human element in birth and rely too heavily on the technology.
Skin-to-skin doesn't happen as much as it should. In fact, for the first time in America, a gentle cesarean was performed in May of 2013 where a healthy triplet birth resulted in mom placing her babies on her chest right after birth -- skin-to-skin. First time? What took so long?
Let's talk about animal birth for a second. Animals give birth in the wild. They just birth. Why can't we? You don't see giraffes heading to the giraffe hospital asking for a giraffe epidural and having giraffe Pitocin. Humans are capable of birthing in the wild. If we wanted to. If we trusted ourselves more. If doctors trusted the process more. It's not that we are animals -- though sometimes we are just like them -- but can we agree that we are as capable as giraffes to give birth? I'd argue yes.
That "wild" place for humans would be at home. Home birth isn't some crazy experience reserved only for granola-eating hippies. It's for everyone simply because we can all birth at home -- without intervention -- provided there isn't some sort of extreme circumstance. There is proof. Doctors need to get on board.
There's really no worse feeling a mom can have than seeing our kids sick and miserable, especially when they're up in the middle of the night suffering from a fever.
And while there are certain things you can give to try and bring down their temperatures -- not all parents want to medicate their toddlers, especially without having them seen by a doctor first. On top of that, sometimes our poor little ones feel so icky, they refuse to take the meds in the first place.
We've all seen videos of water birth -- women giving birth while inside a tub of water. The practice is rapidly gaining in popularity. I know moms who tell me laboring in water helped relieve a lot of their pain and made the whole experience more peaceful. So what exactly is water labor, and how do you go about it? Will your insurance even cover it? I talked with midwife nurse practitioner Kristen Mallon of Mindful Midwifery and Hackensack University Medical Center about what's called hydrotherapy and why it's so helpful to laboring women.
Holy moly, have breastfeeding mothers just gotten a gift from on high. Forget the nursing celebrities who are lavished with praise for letting the paparazzi snap pictures of them feeding their babies, there's a new promoter of nursing in public who eclipses them all. You have heard of Pope Francis, haven't you?
The still relatively new pope has once again proved himself to truly be the pope of the people, and this time his people are all the nursing moms who just can't get no respect. His eminence might have just settled the debate over sex vs. sustenance when it comes to moms whipping out the breast to feed in public.
Remember when the Internet was taken over by a crazy load of "Sh-- So-and-So Says" videos? It turns out pregnant women who are going all natural never got their day in the sun. So what's a mom to do? Make her own "Sh-- Crunchy Pregnant Mamas Say" video, of course!
Don't worry, AP parents, this is not another attack from parents who just don't get why someone would home birth or want to attack your placenta burial. Created by the mom behind Mama Natural, the video pokes good-natured fun at the way a certain set of expectant mothers tend to sound exactly alike.

Colonial Details Inspire Home Library
Designers Simon Aldridge and Lisa Tanno unearth the historic charm behind a New England farmhouse to create a stylish library.
A link to %this page% was e-mailed
For the Hampton Designer Showhouse in Bridgehampton, N.Y., designer Alan Tanksley was selected to design the library space, which he decided to approach as more of a relaxing study. Alan shares with us how he developed the concept for the room and the process behind his design.
The biggest obstacle in this space was that the house was under construction when we were planning it. The time we had to conceive and install the project was extremely short.
Through careful and detailed planning, everything did go according to plan. The end result matched up perfectly with my vision for the space.
What I realized was that participating in showhouses requires a full commitment from our entire staff. It is an investment of time and energy, as well as money. All with the goal of showcasing our point of view.
One of the gems was the custom bookcase I designed for the space, which features chartreuse-enameled steel shelves encased in cream-colored leather. (DESIRON is now in production on the bookcase.) Another was the handmade paperclip chandelier by Gary Ponzo, made up of 2,000 paper clips, and showcasing a Sam Glankoff painting above the Ingrid Donat parchment and bronze commode.

I'd take a 40-something Alfie over a few of the forwards on our team (Emmerton, Andersson). I just can't understand people sometimes. Detroit had a terrible year last year, not just Alfie, He never got to click with the team because the team was never fully healthy. It was just a lousy year for the team. And Alfie still put up 49 points in 68 games.

The countdown is on to one of the scariest times of the entire year --a time when familiar faces wear masks, and you discover sides of your friends you didn't know they had. No, not Halloween: election season.
And if you're browsing the store for a costume this close to Halloween, having some trouble making up your mind, whatever you do, don't go to Spirit Halloween. Because according to tradition, whoever you pick -- Democrat, or Republican -- could swing the real vote in the real guy's favor.
"I think it's kind of neat. They get a say, see where it shifts," says store manager Justin Collins.
So far, shoppers at Spirit Halloween sore nationwide have bought Obama masks over Romney sixty five to thirty five percent.
Republicans say that's making them want to run screaming for the real polls.
"Yes it does. I'm planning to vote, anyways," says Dia Rominski.
No word on whether politicians think real polls are decided here.
"I'm thinking if they did they'd probably buy their own masks," laughs Collins.
But if election fatigue is making it hard to tell the rubber masks from the real thing --
"I'm not voting this year," says one shopper. "I just don't like either of the candidates."
-- then that's what's really scary.


text: "Many of the forces that slurp at the college cartel gravy train are also up in arms over the temerity of Northwestern's players. The winner of 'most obnoxious comment' has to go to Doug Gottlieb, the CBS Sports college hoops analyst who tweeted, "The greatest gift you can receive in the world is a free college experience/education—the need for a greater gift is sickening." (That was Doug's bolding of the word 'gift', master of subtlety that he is). It is hard to know which part of that tweet to correct first, but suffice it to say, exploitation is not a gift. Seeing your coaches make millions off of your sweat while you are an unpaid billboard for Nike is not a gift. Missing classes because you have to fly to the Great Alaska Shootout is not a gift. Driving thirty straight hours while fighting staph infections is not a gift. Hell, seeing Doug Gottlieb make a ton of money that should by all rights be in your pocket is not a gift. The only thing "sickening" is the rank contempt Mr. Gottlieb has for a group of young people daring to stand up and be heard. … Whether or not the Northwestern players succeed in their efforts to unionize—and the NCAA will spend however many billions it takes to make sure this does not happen—their efforts today will long be remembered as the opening shot that cracked the NCAA Cartel. They deserve our support. They deserve our respect. Most of all, they deserve our solidarity. In 1922, that author of The Jungle, Upton Sinclair wrote, 'College athletics, under the spur of commercialism, has become a monstrous cancer.' I do not know what Sinclair would make of a twenty-first-century world where coaches make 100 times the salaries of professors. I think we can say safely, however, that the actions of the Northwestern football team would have made Mr. Sinclair very proud indeed."

Cinnamon Scones
Oct 29th, 2008 by Yoko
Angie is a top-notch scientist, craftologist, and baker. Her zest for life is evident in everything she does. She's another person with whom I'd love to have dinner with someday. Here, she shares with us her version of "Mexicanized" scones, redolent with my favorite spice, cinnamon.
Experimenting with spices.
One of the things I enjoyed the most growing up was going to the baker's in the afternoons. It was always a nice walk, plus I'd get to choose what pan dulce my family would have for merienda and breakfast.
For myself, I always chose a nicely sugar-covered concha, looking forward to the pieces of cinnamon I'd find. I liked that our baker never bought powdered cinnamon and instead he'd crush cinnamon into the dough. Finding these spicier bits was something I really enjoyed.
The years passed, I left my little town, and found myself in a city without a Mexican bakery (the kind where they bake on the premises). I might have adapted to the culture…but daydreams of crushed cinnamon in baked goods haunted me. Being a scientist, I was resolved to fix this. I had already tried muffins successfully but now I had to try it in my favorite baked breakfast baked good: the scone!
That weekend I took my favorite basic cream scone from Baking by Dorie Greenspan. Her recipe calls for also adding currants, but I currently don't care for them.
1 large egg
2/3 cup of heavy cream
2 cups flour
2 Tbsp. sugar
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
5 Tbsp. butter, cut and chilled
1/2 cinnamon stick
This is my version of the instructions:
Mix dry ingredients together. Crush cinnamon over these (if it helps, use a microplane– it's okay if you get bits as that was the point of this experiment; you can also use a mortar and pestle). Add butter and mix until you get crumbs. Add remaining ingredients and mix.
Once it holds together, form a ball. Place in a cookie sheet, flatten and slice into 6 or 8 (being careful not to ruin your cookie sheet, I use the back of a serrated knife). Place in a preheated oven (400 degrees F) and bake for 22 minutes.
Let cool (optional) and serve. Enjoy!

Let me give some Safety tips and will cover it under two headings - Personal Safety and Equipment Safety.
Disclaimer: The safety aspects that are discussed here are based on my experience and Please read the Manufacturers User Manual and adhere to them stricktly. My views given here are in addition to what is mentioned in respective user manuals and doesn't neccessarily replace what is conveyed there. Any incidental damages/death caused by following or not following the tips given here is purely at your risk and I can't be held responsible.
Personal Safety
This is applicable for all people whether they use a Dishwasher or otherwise. Whether you reside in an apartment or individual house. Ensure that all your electrical lines are properly Earthed. You might have experienced as well, if you touch any appliance accidently and you feel a mild shock or feel like current is passing then this is the reason. Either the Earth wire is missing or not connected properly. The easiest and best way, as far as I'm aware, is, to engage an Electrician who works in the Industry who is certified and well versed in handling Heavy Current. The electrician employed by the builder or by your building contractor or a person from nearby Electrical shop cannot be relayed generally. I got in touch with a person who does contract work for Industrial and Corporate offices - Cost is marginally high but Safety is assured. If you are working in an MNC or Corporate company or in Core Industry, definitely you company is going to have a certified electrician.
Socket (Amperage) and Internal Electrical Wire
This is applicable for all people whether they use a Dishwasher or otherwise. Your Dishwasher would draw any where above 2000Watts and for such kind of heavy machine, you need to have atleast 16A socke/plug and supporting internal wires. Any inferior quality wires / socket / plugs would be a strict NO. Ensure that you are using Socket, Wires and Plugs from a branded company and wires especially should be of right gauge. An electician from Industrial background would be able to advice correctly.
Extension Box
Don't ever think of using an extension box. I can't say any further. If you ask me extenstion box should be banned. This along with poor quality wires and loose connections are major cause of accidents. Don't do it.
General Inspection
This is applicable for all people whether they use a Dishwasher or otherwise. Have an habit of performing this small check. You have operated an heavy duty machine like Washing Machine, Dishwasher, Microwave Oven, AC, etc, after you have switch off the appliance and the main socket, check if you feel any heat around those Socket / Plugs [ensure you are properly protected from any accidental shock]. If so it is time to call a Trained Electrician and ask him to inspect and replace neccessary Socket/Plug/Wire with a good quality material. Additionally check the wall / floor for any dampness and take rectification steps.
Running Dishwasher while you are away or asleep
We use to do this before and considering all the safety measures that I talked about, you could avoid this if you plan it well. Some times there are huge fluctuations happening during night (depending on the area you reside), I happen to notice one night that our fan was running on Inverter power inspite of Mains working, due to low voltage.
Opening the door when the Dishwasher is working or wet
This generally happens when you want a particular vessel which is being cleaned currently and you can't wait until the entire cycle gets completed.
(Please read Disclaimer again)
Ensure that you have switched off the Dishwasher completely. By completely, I mean, the on/off button in your dishwasher is in off position and that switch near the power plug on the wall is in off position, if you are extra cautious remove the plug from the socket. [Take neccessary care]. After you have ensured that there is no power supply going to your dishwasher and that Dishwasher has stopped operating, you can think of taking out the vessel. Remember that water or water vapour inside the dishwasher is going to be hot depending on, at what stage, you want to retrieve. So be careful while opening the door.
Equipment Safety
Proper Earthing, Socket and Internal Wiring are important as mentioned above. It is better to have a good voltage cut-off equipment to protect the Dishwasher from getting exposed to huge voltage fluctuations while it in operation. Su-Kam has a equipment, you could explore. IFB suggests a similar unit but I'm not quite happy with the product as it went bad just after a year.
Any good / standard product available in the market with proper Load specification should help. It is not absolutely necessary though. But what happens generally is, the controller board used inside the Dishwashers are imported from outside the country and hence they are generally not stocked in Franchise office but in the Regional Offices,so if it goes bad, you are going to see some delay in getting it replaced. Develop contact with your Branch Office service head, so that the delays are minimal.

Good Questions: Entryway Solution?
Hello AT friends,
We own a brownstone in NYC, and are currently going through a home renovation. Although we are working with an architect, we cannot come up with a good solution for our entryway.
Specifically, when you open the front door, you enter the living space because the hallway wall has been removed. We like the fact that the wall has been taken down (our house is 18ft wide), but we would like some sense of separation. This can be permanent ( smaller wall, glass partition), or temporary. We have a contemporary styled home, but the architecture is decidedly classic.
Please help!!! Malaika
Email questions and pics with QUESTIONS in subject line to:
Link To All Good Questions
Dear Malaika,
NICE HOUSE! wow. In answer to your question, this is tough one. You are better off with the wall gone, but the room really is still feeling the hallway going through it.
(Malaika, the pictures are a bit confusing. Is that the staircase leading up from the front door in the first and third pic? Is that the front door in the second pic? If so, how come the furniture is different? We could really use a floorplan here. Send one in and we'll attach it to this post.)
In any event, your best bet is DO IT WITH FURNITURE. You want to work against the long hallway-like effect that the house already has going for it by facing your furniture sideways, across the room. While 18" isn't much to play with when you are trying to get a hall and a living room in, you definitely want to use the back of your furniture to take the place of the wall that used to be there. Use the furniture to define the room in place of the wall.
The more you break up the long flow of your floor with perpendicular arrangements, the better the flow will become.
Anyone else??

You lucky dogs! How about a chandelier, a piano, and a pianist.
To answer your questions. Yes, thats the same staircase leading up from the front door in the 1st and 3rd pics. And the entryway (to the right of the two windows in the 2nd pic) is the front door. I just realized that I grabbed two sets of pics of the parlour flr- taken at different times! Its confusing, sorry about that... But the pic with the mies van der rohe by the front window, and the jonathan adler couch, are the current ones.
Let me try to find my flr plan... But basically, the entire first flr is about 18x50, with the front parlor being 18x30 and the back parlor 18x20. Roughly...
Thanks for your suggestions!
The separation feeling is really accentuated by the two doors in the back wall there. Any possibility of combining them into one large opening? (Or removing it all together - but that might betray the details of your house)
Hi, great house! I agree, do it with furniture, plants or even a folding screen. I'd hold off on anything permanent until you really have a chance to live in the space.
I agree that furniture and rug placement is your key. If the room is wide enough, run the Mies piece parallel to the hallway, to separate the "room" from the "hallway."
And a bigger rug will further define that "room."
I'd also turn the portion of wall where the large mirror is into a faux fireplace. That will help make sense of turning the furniture back into the room. And also, upon entry, your eye will go there and not shooting down the hallway.
Also, what about hanging draperies (a short fixed section, immediately inside and to the right of the front door, running the same direction as the length of the room) and two stationary panels flanking the wide door at the room's end? They could be contemporary in fabric (microsuede, for example) but would remain true to the era/spririt of the house.
What about a free-standing two-sided bookcase? There are tons of options for something like that. Smartfurniture.com even lets you custom design things. Their only limitation is just a few colors, but you could create a really interesting partition.
Nice digs.
I'll be the minority here, but I like tiny rooms! Give me 20 tiny rooms over 3 big ones. So if I were you, I would probably move back to the original configuration. Put the wall back up btw hall and parlour. In the hall, you'd have the staircase, hall, umbrella stand, bench, and - on new wall - some pegs for a sting bag and wind jacket (if I were styling it for a photo shoot!). The wall I'd put up would have 2 giant pocket doors, which would usually be open. With the doors open, you'd really only have a few feet of new wall space (housing the pocket doors) on either side. I'd like to have that wall space, to hang some pegs (on entry hall side) and to hang a picture or mirror on parlour side.
You'd end up with a wee parlour, but really.. isn't that what you have now anyway?
The other option is to knock out the other way, but I don't like that look.
hey that's my floor plan!
except I have a partial wall of floor to ceiling bookcases that starts about a foot past where the staircase starts. That's cause I need the bookcase space, and like a separate un-carpeted hall that leads to the kitchen/back room.
Is your entryway boxed in? That part is open in my place so the front door opens directly into the living room. I love having the total width of the building up front . . .
Don't ruin your doorways I beg of you.
and yes, faux fireplace!
Also, once I put up the walls, I'd wallpaper the room. Embrace the sweetness of it. Then again, I think this is more my style than yours perhaps. I'd be tempted to paint out the woodwork. That's how crazy I am!
I'd paint the hall and the back room the same color so your eye moves there.
Lovely house - congratulations! I'd go with Terry's suggestion of a folding screen in front of the larger door opening and use that as a "concept check" to see if that helps visually. I, too, at first thought of using the chairs (or now your sofa) to "form" the corridor (ie) place it perpendicular to the doors but your second pic shows that there is really no room to do that. So don't fight the corridor; visually creating a wall-like background against the larger door may give you a full room feel while keeping the flow from room1 to room2 intact.
All the best in your wonderful home!
Hmm. As an architect, I'm questioning what value you are getting from your architect if he/she can't offer an acceptable solution to this!
This is a common issue with older homes. You can build a partial wall inside the larger opening (adding casing at the bottom of the new opening, and continuing the basebaord detail across the new lower wall so that it is consistent with the existing house) that lets you feel like you are in a room, not a path, while still allowing for light and openness between the two spaces.
You could also make one larger opening and let the spaces flow into each other, but you might have to introduce a beam to carry the load of the larger opening. That will definitely depend on your budget.
You could also custom design a piece of furniture (like open shelving) that fits into the opening, but marries the existing structure with your more modern furnishings. Glass (or nice acrylic like Ecoresin or 3-from) panels (that act as a screen, but are openable like doors)would be nice, too, but I would definitely go custom and have them fit the opening well or it will look thrown together. You have a nice level of finish in the space now, and you should try to maintain that with your renovation so that you don't devalue the building.
Good luck with your lovely home!
I would extend the wall out next to the front doorway, about two and a half to three feet out and three feet high. That might create enough of a partition to divide the space, so that when you walk in the front door you don't feel as though you are imediately walking into the room (if that makes sense). It just seems to narrow to me to have the Barcelona day bed and the Jonathan Adler couch face parallel to the length of the room. I would just think that would create too much of a "shotgun" effect, but that's just my two cents.
First of all, thanks for all of the thoughtful suggestions!
As an update- some things have been done since these pics were taken. Most noteably, we did add a faux fireplace, which does help a bit. Also, we replaced the ceiling cove molding which had been removed prior to our purchase. Some other lighting fixtures have been changed, but nothing else major.
And Christine, youre right, our architect sucks. He is not the most creative person, we are now finding out. Good with direction- boring on his own.
Again, thanks for all of your thoughts!
Add me to the "change the door configuration" vote. Close up the smaller door (save the woodwork in case the next owners want it back). It's creeping me out to have two doors to the same room, and the different doorway heights are making me seasick.
Definitely do something to make that chimney breast a strong focal point, so that the room feels anchored by it.
I can see maybe a sculptural divider at some point, but I'm skeptical that your furniture will fit well if you really preserve a corridor. We had a 21-foot rowhouse back in upstate NY, and the living room seemed dinky when the sofa faced the fireplace. Allowing for the need to have traffic behind the sofa, we would have had about the same depth as you have. Ours seemed way larger when the sofas faced each other across a strong fireplace.
I agree with Wende, because although it seems VERY strange to voluntarily block off any of the light that's pouring in from back there, it might seem even stranger to make the larger of the two doorways blocked off.
I like corners, and I would love for there to be a corner there where that smaller door is, because yes, those two door heights kind of bug me. And YES! Store the wood in the attic or something.
What a gorgeous home, and I actually think that your modern contributions to it actually manage to play up the beauty of the architecture. It actually seems like only a slightly different flavor of VERY formal than the room probably originally had.
But now I'm VERY curious about what the faux fireplace looks like!
An Indian platform swing suspended from the ceiling
Terry. I posted some info on your question in an open thread several months ago but couldn't find the thread. (I believe jamie pup had also contributed some useful suggestions on this thread.) There are a number of companies that specialize in refinishing and reglazing ceramic tile walls and countertops, tubs, showers, etc. (A simple internet search should yield a few leads.) I once lived in a rental that had had this done. Every tiled surface in the bathroom and kitchen had been professionally sprayed with a thick non-pourous epoxy, completely covering even the grout lines. Since this was an early '60s building, chances are the original tile color was a period-correct pastel color. But the epoxy color chosen by the property owner was a gleaming white, which substantially updated the look of both rooms. The surface wasn't completely hard-wearing, but it was good enough. (I once nicked the epoxy on the kitchen counter and did a quick touch up using white nail polish.) But, p(too) is correct: this is a process best left to professionals and not DIY. And I don't believe the reno is one that can be done while you are still occupying the space because of the chemicals involved (but I could be wrong about that).
urgh... wrong thread. apologies!
oh, to have such problems. it's a beautiful space, you're so lucky.
I would go with a furniture piece, namely - a low period wardrobe or a custom cabinet designed with period details to resemble the antique, in same dark wood finish as existing trim, placed as divider between the seating group and the passage to the stair.
It seems that there is no coat closet in the foyer (the building is too narrow for that), so it will serve dual purpose - aesthetic as well as functional.
I think this room ought to be totally reconsidered back to it original purpose.
It should be formal and structured. And exhibit only the finest things you own. Or you might acquire.
Like some gracious comfortable seating. And a major art that you love.
The scale of your showed funiture looks out of place, even though it's great stuff.
It's a beautiful space that demands just a few things. Beidermier or Swedish/white is something that would make the room, to admire the pretty mouldings.
And then maybe some huge chrome piece, that is too big for anyone's parlor room but yours to satisfy your modern taste. That would be the dessert in the room...
Beautiful space, Malaika.
Are you a Swahili speaker? Wondering about your name....
I noticed you have a great white barcelona daybed, exactly what I'm currently looking to buy. However, there are a million vendors with a million prices and quality levels. Where did you get yours and would you recommend it?
Thanks for all your helpful comments. Im going to send in a slide show of the house when everything is done- maybe a month or so...
ps. DL, I got my daybed from dwr.com, and its great. Maybe a year ago or so..
Hello, was looking for something and came across your question, anyway sweet looking home you have pictured. I didn't read all of the suggestions you've received so far, but what about using a long narrow sort of low, open designed (possibly with just one shelve below on it) console table or use a half wall and put the same ?wood? paneling and its design on the side of it facing the parlor, as on underneath the staircase (showing in your 1st. pic) to give the feeling the half wall belonged and had been there or use some sort of see through screen/divider attached to ceiling for giving separation but still giving it an open feeling. Good luck with your project!
Funny you should ask this as I'm about to contemplate how to 'wall' without walling.
My inspiration - just thing morning! - was found on page 89 of this February's issue of 'Country Living' magazine.
You'll see a full-page photo of the living room looking out to the entryway. From the page: "Lush full-length draperies ease the transition between the living room and the adjoining entry hall." I'd use sheer materials to delineate if light is a factor. But, the use of materials in this photo are nice as well.
Just a thought.
oops... a year later<i/>! For the love of Pete I need to get out more! LOL

We had a lot of fun putting him together. We broke off bamboo skewers and hammered the items we used in with a rubber mallet. We used a gourd for the ears, tomatillos cut in half for the eyeballs, cantaloupe skin for the lids. We cut a lemon for the nose and a chayote squash for the mouth. We set him up on a plastic pot and wrapped some burlap and a leather tie around the waist to make it look like his clothes.
