Unexpected
Chapter 3
Genre: romance, comedy
Warning: many facts were changed for story development purposes
Finally, in the next chapter, I'm starting the main story. I hope you will enjoy this chapter as I had a lot of fun writing it ❤️
Tumblr media
"Your hand was always near mine,
I could grab it anytime...
...ah...
The sand,
Collapsing under our wet steps,
The long empty street...
....we didn't care about hurting our feet while running barefoot...
The taste of this drink was different with you,
I could drink from your lips until I fell...
Because I was certain you would be there...
Next to me in the morning..."
Chapter 3 under the cut👇🏻
KyungSoo's house was placed in a district of single-family houses, with the main street at the end and a street full of pubs just next door. Further down was a big beach embraced by the woods from the back side of the lake.
His home was fenced off by a tall stone fence in a marble color, with a black gate looking like a dungeon entrance. It wasn't his choice, he probably would have chosen a different shape, but the fence was already here when he bought this house.
Inside, nicely cut grass was on every inch of the ground and the tall trees were separating his household space from other houses creating fence extensions. The medium-sized two-story house was in melancholic azure color with dark roofs.
Behind the wooden doors, placed in the middle of the house, painted in a navy color was a small anteroom, not separated from the sitting room by doors, just an open entrance leading straight to the kitchen which was together with the dining room and on the right side the sitting room behind the long bifold doors.
- KyungSoo-yah! - YiSeuls' voice could be heard from the kitchen - Baboo, there is a festival today, are we going? - she called him Baboo like the little monkey from a cartoon for kids.
How time flies?
It's already been a year after the unexpected one-off night. This unpredictable plot twist turned out to be a blessing for both of them. After they came back from a work trip, they've been meeting almost every day. KyungSoo was a frequent guest in YiSeul's house. He meet her mother who was delighted by his presence.
- Take care of this precious boy! - mother always repeated when he came by. It looks like, even if her body couldn't do much due to sickness when he came she was receiving an unlimited energy boost so he was always receiving all kinds of different sweets, dishes, and hot drinks. She was always by his side, but he didn't mind. He was happy to be accepted by her.
Due to his job colors, he had to work many hours and go on a work trips often. YiSeul was always waiting for him with prepared dinner and snacks. They loved going to their favorite pub, just next door street from KyungSoo's house.
She was sitting now on a bar chair next to the kitchen island and looking at her phone.
The island and the kitchen shelves and worktops were in navy color, fridge and cooker in silver. The rest of the walls in this room were white. The flooring was limestone grey tiles. On the right side, under the bifold doors was lying a grey carpet, just a little darker than the tiles' color.
YiSeul's dark brown hair was tied in a top knot. She was wearing a black undershirt and light blue denim shorts.
- What time? - KyungSoo shouted from the sitting room.
- It says, the festival starts at 8 pm but all the tills and stands are open from 6 pm. It's past 5 pm -
Suddenly, KyungSoo appeared at the bifold doors. His hair was cut in short French crop, the top was just slightly longer than the sides. He was wearing a white t-shirt and pickle green loose shorts.
- I finished, so we can go if you're ready - said proudly showing his perfectly white, wide smile.
- Who's first in the toilet...? - she threw down the challenge and after a second of silence both started to run towards the stairs in the kitchen's far right corner.
Sun was living it's best in the blue sky. The significant advantage in early autumn is that the summer feeling can be still there, despite the chilly wind and short days.
An unexpected couple was heading down the road together along with crowds of other people.
KyungSoo wore a black beanie, black and white plaid shirt, and white undershirt, together with light, loose jeans and dark sneakers. YiSeul wore a long loose black summer dress and plaid shirt in shades of brown and the same sneakers as her partner.
Soon they reached the entrance of the party. Stands were selling postcards with lake pictures or others connected to this place and festival attractions.
On the beach, except for overwhelming crowds, they could find bars and stands placed on wooden flooring. Just further down on the right, a huge scene was standing with all the preparations for performance later in progress.
They came near to one of the bar counters.
- Baboo, do you want a beer? - YiSeul asked while grabbing his hand tightly, so he would understand this question was rhetorical.
- I'll just take one bottle of coke please- he said to the barman at the counter
- What? You can drink one beer today! Work is done and tomorrow off - she jumped up and down while holding his hand
- Ok, let it be one then - he changed his mind for her. In reality, he didn't plan to drink it at all but didn't want to make her upset. - Two same please- finished placing the order and looked at her with a smirk - happy now? -
- I am happy, let's have fun today! You are working too much lately, I'm feeling like I don't have you anymore - she made a a facial expression of hopeless sadness, the one baby is doing before crying. That made KyungSoo laugh just before he grabbed their ready-to-drink beer.
In the next hour, the sun has settled down. They've been walking around, enjoying their time. In the meantime, KyungSoo was pretending to drink the beer but secretly poured it out here and there. It wasn't that he didn't want to have fun, just he didn't feel like drinking now. His mind was too much absorbed by the events around him, the people, the lights, and how nice would be to sit in his favorite pub's bar chair and just enjoy the time without too much noise and constant pushing through the crowd.
- Baboo - YiSeul woke him up from his thoughts suddenly - look, the concert is starting - and pointed at the scene where the powerful neons were lighting most of the beach. They came near the stage, barely pushed through the crowd but hopefully made it. KyungSoo was just standing focused. YiSeul was jumping while a three-person group was playing their folk music. Then one actress has done the stand-up skit. Then another rock band. KyungSoo was standing still, not making any effort to enjoy the show. Instead, he was carefully analyzing all the sound effects, equipment quality as well as lyrics and background details. YiSeul looked at him, the irritation was slightly visible on her face. She grabbed his hand and pushed him through the crowd's end, which was just at the shore of the lake. He stiffed in place, not knowing what her behaviour meant. Will she start reproaching him or she just doesn't want to be there anymore? She looked deep into his eyes in silence, the atmosphere was heavy.
- ..What? - he asked when she moved slowly on his right side while still gazing at him with a suspicious look....
-Wha..woow!- she pushed him straight into the lake! He fell splashing the water all around, sat and from his gaze, you could hear many swearing words even if he was completely speechless. Suddenly, he jumped up grabbed her hand, and dragged her to the water together with him
- You won't get away with this! -
The shore of the lake has shallow water so they've been lying flat and laughing. Soaked wet. He suddenly crouched down and started splashing the water on her, she stood up to fight back. Their laugh was spread across the beach and even the main concert couldn't drown it out completely. At some point, when they stood up Kyungsoo grabbed her wrists, pressed his chest against her, and made her move backward slowly to the dry part of the shore. She then released her hand, grabbed his back, and tripped him, but unfortunately, they fell over together on...
None of them expected that someone would be passing by at that second. They flew into the woman who was just walking by with a man who seemed like her husband. Both of them were looking wealthy. That woman jumped back on time, but they still hit her slightly leaving her wet and dirty from sand traces on her long pink coloured dress and flowers painted at the bottom.
- Are you out of your mind?! - she shouted when they picked themselves up from the ground. Her husband took a step forward:
- Look what you've done! This is unacceptable! You almost hurt her?!- he shouted in range. KyungSoo clammed up for a long second, then when he opened his mouth to apologize...
YiSeul grabbed his hand and pushed to the crowd to run away. The husband was still shouting, but they didn't understand the words anymore. Just run, and run ahead. While running they took off their soaked wet shoes, dirtied in sand. They laugh while running and holding their hands.
"WOW!" KyungSoo yelled with his head raised high. She was laughing loudly, it was more difficult to run when her back was bending from laughing, but KyungSoo held her hand so she wouldn't stop.
They had reached KyungSoo's beloved pub, "Inferno". The name had nothing to do with the decor of this place or the menu served. Blue and purple color neons were hung above the old, wooden doors. The glass walls were covering the whole wall belonging to this pub, including the fully glazed doors.
They walked in looking like two typhoon survivors. Inside, the dark brown wood flooring was covering each piece of the floor. The walls were painted in yellow. there were not many tables, two on the right, and three on the left arranged in a rows under the wall. The toilets were at the right corner behind the bar, and from the left to the middle was the counter and a few bar chairs under. Both the doors and the counter were in seaweed colour, something between brown and green. Some could say it's a green shade, the others it's brown, all depends on the person's view perception.
- You're definitely not sitting on my chair wearing these clothes! - The female voice just objected. KyungSoo after his eyes found the source of this voice smiled and waved his hand in a greeting manner.
- Sarah, two beers for us please -
- Hi Sarah! - YiSeul waved a hand too and turned to KyungSoo- Baboo, maybe whisky? -
He nodded his head in agreement while placing his hand on her arm and bringing her closer to him.
- Make it two whisky shots then -
The woman behind the bar was a tall woman with her black hair tied up in a top knot. The printed headband was covering her forehead. Cat eyes make-up and red full lips were giving an exotic vibe and doubling her currently annoyed facial expression. She wore just a black sleeveless tank top and leggings. She was giving them stink eyes while polishing the beer pints.
- To the toilet, both of you - she grabbed the tumblers for whisky and turned around to open the cabinet filled with all kinds of alcohol bottles.
The runaway couple came back after generally sprucing themselves up and sat down on the first bar chairs.
"...Creams Yura became a hot topic lately, after being spotted with a man in public..." KyungSoo looked at the TV hanging in the center of the right side wall. This news made him smirk a little.
- What? Are you laughing? - YiSeul grabbed his arm to catch his attention
- That's not my problem anymore, never was really, but it's funny how media works -
- Who's producing them now? - she asked while raising the glass to have a first sip. KyungSoo was holding the glass but felt the need to continue the topic.
- The one who was recruited by Kim some time ago. But I don't mind, Creams we're difficult after debut - and smiled at her like he's happy it's over.
- How's Yeolie doing after the promotion? -
- Oh, Chanyeol's doing fine, he always was. Living his life now as an unbridled producer, I guess this work suits him better -
- And your new band? Have you had a general meeting today? -
- Yes - he paused to smile widely as something enjoyable happened.
- Shocking. You're making this face like you had the time of your life but not telling what was it, I need details! - she pushed him slightly to show her demand.
- There's not much for now. It's a four-person boy group, two rappers and two singers. Management decided to push them overseas so there are many plans for that in mind -
- How are they called? -
-...Tempo - the sudden silence was broken by a loud laughter bouncing off the walls.
- But...Why?- YiSeul couldn't believe it
- I gave them a few ideas but apparently the name was already chosen by Kim, and it's about the genre. They'll be a hip-hop group. Of course, it makes sense, but...- and he laughed again, just this time he controlled the volume a little lower. Suddenly he leaned down and start whispering into her ear:
- I will finally use my few old records, they'll be perfect for them... -
- Ok, why are you whispering? - she played along and whispered
- Because no one can hear this, it's a secret - he pressed the pointing finger to his lips and smirked while looking deeply into her eyes. She turned her head to do the same. They'd been looking at each other for a longer few seconds, and then suddenly she kissed him. Just a quick peck on his lips, and again they looked at each other. He done the same. Their smiling faces resembled the ones that children have before experiencing something for the first time, fascination? Maybe. Excitement? Also possible. Suddenly she grabbed his face and they drowned in a long fulfilling kiss like they couldn't hold back anymore...
- That is disgusting - Sarah's voice suddenly crushed the atmosphere. They raised their heads in a rush, she was here all the time!
Sarah was leaning on the counter with her phone in hand. She wasn't disgusted, and to be honest she was enjoying the show very much. Seeing her amused face was very rare so they both started laughing from awkwardness, YiSeul covered her embarrassed face with her hands but still burst into laughter...
Time went by and after drinking more than one whisky shot, mostly sponsored by the entertained barmaid, the unexpected couple decided to finally go back home...
The front doors of KyungSoo's home opened, and they entered the kitchen. Walking slowly, taking off their shoes and clothes, throwing them under their feet while facing each other. Their bodies were like a photo magnet from holidays, bought for a few pence on the beach's souvenir stand, stuck to each other like those magnets to the refrigerator,and rubbing the tips of their shoes while moving. Kyungsoo was the one walking backwards. When entering the sitting room he grabbed the stereo system controller from the coffee table in the middle of the room and took a quick glance at which bottom to press. The radio was on. Their moves were supposed to remind the dance, but touch was the main goal so smooth spinning in circles was the best name for this choreography.
- Not complaining anymore, eh? - she said while showing a flirty smile.
- Never...- and he bowed his head slowly. Suddenly the time had stopped and every tiny sound disappeared. There was no outside world, only this room. His mind was stripped of all the thoughts and replaced by her...by her lips. Leaning his head to the side and slightly opening his lips. His heart rumbled very loud, he wished to silence it for a second...just a second would be enough...
The left hand was pressing her back to pull closer, as close as it was possible. Like she would run away...
The interlocked fingers in connected right hands couldn't decide how was more comfortable, bended or stretched.
She closed her eyes, waiting for the final blow of euphoria which was already rooted in her trembling bones from top to bottom of her body. He pressed gently his lips...
* buzz buzz* The vibrating phone in KyungSoo's pants has detonated the grand moment, shattering the passion all over the room walls. He jumped one step back but after seeing the anger on her face returned to his place like an obedient child and answered the phone:
- Chanyeol....- almost whispered with a resentful tone but it's not in his personality to cause a quarrel when Chanyeol wasn't even here and aware of what moment he just exterminated.
- KyungSoo-yah!- and laughed without reason- you alright? How's it going? -
Kyungsoo was suppressing his anger:
- Fine, was at the festival today with YiSeul -
She then started to dance gently with her fingers under his left ear going down the neck
- Oh, good boy, I wish I would say the same but May is recording for the next few days so I'm kind of lonely like Akon *ha ha ha*- he busted out of laugh from his own joke, while KyungSoo's mind was wondering somewhere in his girlfriend's eyes. - so, mate, pack your bags, and say sorry to your missus. We're going to Gwangju tomorrow! -
- What? What for? -
He raised his voice but YiSeul held his head in her both hands while pressing gently her right hand pointing finger to his lips to settle him down. Then she stroked his lips quietly by hers. His eyes suddenly regained the glow.
- Listen carefully ok? JJ Entertainment is doing a large-scale event for the 14th birthday. All stars must be there, including Tempo. They'll have a pre-debut show. Also, Kim needs help with Creams...I know right? But you've been there already so you'll be fine. Imagine.. - he laughed before starting the sentence. Kyungsoo wasn't paying attention, was holding the phone a little further from his ear and enjoying the teasing moment with his girlfriend. She peck-kissed him here and there...
- Imagine Kim already needs your help after taking this family guy. I don't care really, but I bet he is crying now.
Right, KyungSoo-yah I need to go, May is calling.Tomorrow.Ill.send.you.the.details.asap.byeeee - last few words he said in supersonic speed and hung up after barely finishing the sentence.
An unexpected couple was having another "look me. in the eye" challenge in silence. Suddenly "Who's first upstairs!" Yiseul shouted and they ran upstairs while taking off and throwing their clothes under their feet. Kyungsoo made it to the top of the stairs first but he waited on her for some reason. When she reached his point, she pushed him and jumped into the room which was just on the right corner. She then took off her pants and he jumped to the room dragging her with him to the bed. They looked at each other and laughed. While being on top of her He gently took off her bra strap and leaned over to kiss her peach-colour stripped skin. She grabbed the white-brown line pattern duvet lying under them. Then Kyungsoo grabbed another side of it, and they disappeared under...
...in this small room with one double bed and slopped ceiling above it where all walls are in russet color.
- Sir Tae Woo! -
In the daytime, just in what looks like the city centre, a man's troubled voice has been heard. The main road was wide and across the streets, you could find all kinds of shops and office buildings. The ones touching the sky, glazed and modern. Also the two-story old buildings with restaurants, corner shops, and other essential stores. Crowds walked by, it was probably sometime in the afternoon.
- Sir! - the middle-aged, black-haired man who was definitely an office worker judging by his clothes, finally found the "Sir" he was looking for. He stopped and banded down breathing heavily, his chubby weight could explain his lack of physical condition. The man who he was looking for was standing focused with his head raised high. Tall, short haircut looked like he just come back from the military. His facial features were not particularly characteristic. Sharp bones, long V-shaped face. Eyes were reminding jokingly cat on stand-by, long on the outer side and round like a coin on the inner side. Long nose and average shaped lips. He wore a suit in a light shade of grey and a white suit shirt under. The office worker started his report:
- The stock has gone up! And compared to the forecast we are -3.4% behind. That can be fixed but Lyon company said they are considering cancelation, that woul...-
- Shush...- whispered Tae Woo while looking fascinated at the other side of the street.
- You can tell me when we will get back to the office-
- But sir! - the terrified employer clenched his hands into the fist. What is more important than this?
Tae Woo smirked.
YiSeul walked on the other side of the street with two shopping bags and headphones in her ears.
- Interesting...- he whispered.
Have you had fun in the last few years?
...YiSeul...

Low maintenance, long lasting and UK building regulation compliant, and all at a fantastic price!
Why choose Aluminium Bi-fold Doors?
Features & Benefits Aluminium has fantastic properties that make it the ideal material choice for bi-folds. As well as being eco-friendly (can be recycled indefinitely) it is very strong, meaning slimmer frames (sight lines) all-round, it’s hardwearing, robust, rigid (doesn’t twist or warp) and can span larger distances than other materials. Being of a multi-chambered construction also improves thermal efficiency.
Our bi-fold doors are an excellent choice for replacements or new installations:

Are Nu-Scene bi-fold doors cost-effective? Nu-Scene manufacture aluminium products which are only available to trade. Our philosophy is to supply high quality doors at competitive prices with a fast turn-a-round direct to UK trade customers, who in turn can then offer aluminium bi-folds as a viable material option to their value orientated customer.
Homeowners and businesses will save money on their energy bills (UK building reg approved for thermal efficiency), maintenance costs and longevity of choosing an aluminium product. So all in all we strongly believe Nu-Scene doors are very cost effective.
Built with Security & Strength Nu-Scene do not compromise on security of their bi-fold doors – we choose to only manufacture using quality high grade aluminium systems that meet the highest British standards that pass PAS 24 security testing.

Our bi-fold doors are packed with a range of strength & security features, such as:
Exceptionally strong multi chamber system enabling larger apertures High grade 1.8mm aluminium profile thickness Internally glazed / beaded Multipoint locking / security cylinders Security glazing options Security Test (PAS 24): Passed

Maintenance requirements for my Bi-Fold Door? Aluminium bifold doors are extremely low maintenance and require little to no upkeep. As aluminium bifold doors tend to be powder coated, this hardwearing finish protects the doors from the weather and maintains its pristine appearance for years to come.
A simple wipe over with a damp cloth across the whole frame will keep your doors looking as good as new. You may need to occasionally clean debris from the tracks to ensure your doors open and close smoothly, but that should be all you need to do.

i want some bifold doors for my living room
3 pane. Right traffic. 3-2-1 style
Two panes slide to the left. One pane to the right .
Folding externally. Right pane should also open externally.
will it look strange aight though with the handle being 1/3 of the way along?
Or should I just go for 3 pane all sliding like this: https://www.everest.co.uk/globalassets/everest/doors/bi-fold-doors/mg-bifold-16-min.jpg would it be weird if one opens towards the wall?
Which will have less problems 321 or 330?
With 321 I wouldn't want it to be extra thick between the traffic and the folding door - equal sight lines.
alu vs pvc - which will have less problems.
Frame in white.
White cill.
Styling should match Rehau Flush windows like this which is what i eventually want the other windows at the back of the house to be: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FDcC9WXWEBAWqfA.jpg, so i don't want it to look odd if i have one alu and rest pvc.
It should look like this aesthetically with white and equal sight lines https://www.climadoor.co.uk/bifold-doors/external-bifold-doors/climadoor-upvc-bifold-doors-white-high-security/white-2400mm-upvc-bi-fold-door-open-out-3l
with white hinges and handles and door bumpers (not flag type).
Make sure the inner bevel is white like this: https://www.eveshamglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/bi-fold-doors2.jpg
aluminium or pvc? I don't mind - ask which is better - i don't mind as long as they match the rehau styling in terms of frame width (shouldn't be too thin) and they have the white bevel to match (some aluminium ones i've seen have a black bevel like this https://lirp.cdn-website.com/952c70fa/dms3rep/multi/opt/Bifold+doors+whitefield-640w.JPG
My garden faces north west so they won't get a lot of sun exposure
Like this:
Ilike this: https://airevalleyglass.co.uk/bi-fold-door-fit-aire-valley-glass/ I like they are not black on the inside

Fantastic Glazed Kitchen Extension Concepts for a Light-Filled Cooking Area
Discover how glazed kitchen extension ideas can infuse your additional space with natural light and views from every angle – courtesy of picture windows, rooflights, patio doors and more
Glazed kitchen extension ideas are crucial to creating a welcoming and luminous add-on that becomes the new heart of the home. Glazing can also provide a stronger link between your fresh kitchen extension and your garden.
With so many stunning images out there on the internet or in magazines, it can be challenging to decide which kitchen extension ideas to incorporate into your own project. Not only does the budget come into the picture, but also the overall style of the project. Windows, doors and other forms of glazing substantially influence the aesthetics of any home and the budget, so should be seriously considered from the beginning.
Tumblr media
Bring In Light From Above Dark Blue Kitchen With Grey Island And Large Rooflight
Rooflights are a versatile and stylish method of glazing a kitchen extension. Moreover, this feature can be included alongside virtually any sizeable or small kitchen extension ideas.
Custom sizes and unconventional configurations or forms are popular (including circles and oversized, walk-on rooflights), but carry an extra cost. Additional features such as automatic openings and self-cleaning glass also come at a higher price.
Ready-made size options are also widely available and interesting designs can be constructed around them. For example, if your rooflight will be non-openable, continue the wall finish around the frame to give the illusion of thinner sightlines.
Other ideas for a kitchen extension with skylights to consider, include:
Employ Patio Doors To Connect a Glazed Kitchen Extension To The Garden Pale, Modern Kitchen Diner Extension With Black Steel Patio Doors
Constructing a kitchen extension often provides an opportunity to connect with outdoor spaces. Make the most of this by using glazing where possible with patio door ideas.
The type of patio door you choose will depend on how you wish to transition from indoors to outdoors, the style of your extension (as well as the original house), and your budget.
Kitchen extensions with bifolds reap the advantage of being able to fold back the panels of glazing against a wall, opening up the interior to the garden. However, when closed, some models feature thick bars where the panels join together.
Sliding doors eliminate this if you desire constant good views to the outdoors while closed, but they can only open halfway, unless you create a pocket cassette in the wall for them to slide into, which can be expensive.
Add An Extra Perspective With a Side Window White Kitchen Extension With Picture Window And Sliding Doors
(Image credit: Jeremy Phillips) While it might be tempting to focus on glazing that faces the rear garden, a side aspect can bring an unexpected view into the space.
For instance, a long narrow window style adjacent to a sink will offer a pleasant view during cleaning and washing up time.
Likewise, a picture window near a dining area can add an informal extra seat, as this stunning extension demonstrates.
Aim High With Clerestory Windows
Clerestory windows – typically comprising a row of windows or glazing above eye level – can be are ideal for casting a wash of natural light over the room as a whole.
Combine Various Kitchen Extension Glazing Styles
To accomplish a kitchen extension that truly exploits glazing to its maximum potential, you will need to mix and match your favourite styles.
You don’t necessarily need to purchase all your glazing from the same supplier or even use the same materials to create a unified look. In fact, contrasting warm timber with a contemporary aluminium can work quite well.
Track the path the sun takes before you commit to an extension design using a lot of glazing. While it might sound great for a south-facing kitchen conservatory extension to be full of windows, this can result in a greenhouse-like effect where a solar coating needs to be applied or overheating measures enacted.

Rooflights are a versatile and stylish method of glazing a kitchen extension. Moreover, this feature can be included alongside virtually any sizeable or small kitchen extension ideas.
Custom sizes and unconventional configurations or forms are popular (including circles and oversized, walk-on rooflights), but carry an extra cost. Additional features such as automatic openings and self-cleaning glass also come at a higher price.
Ready-made size options are also widely available and interesting designs can be constructed around them. For example, if your rooflight will be non-openable, continue the wall finish around the frame to give the illusion of thinner sightlines.
Other ideas for a kitchen extension with skylights to consider, include:
Employ Patio Doors To Connect a Glazed Kitchen Extension To The Garden Pale, Modern Kitchen Diner Extension With Black Steel Patio Doors
Constructing a kitchen extension often provides an opportunity to connect with outdoor spaces. Make the most of this by using glazing where possible with patio door ideas.
The type of patio door you choose will depend on how you wish to transition from indoors to outdoors, the style of your extension (as well as the original house), and your budget.
Kitchen extensions with bifolds reap the advantage of being able to fold back the panels of glazing against a wall, opening up the interior to the garden. However, when closed, some models feature thick bars where the panels join together.
Sliding doors eliminate this if you desire constant good views to the outdoors while closed, but they can only open halfway, unless you create a pocket cassette in the wall for them to slide into, which can be expensive.
Add An Extra Perspective With a Side Window White Kitchen Extension With Picture Window And Sliding Doors
(Image credit: Jeremy Phillips) While it might be tempting to focus on glazing that faces the rear garden, a side aspect can bring an unexpected view into the space.
For instance, a long narrow window style adjacent to a sink will offer a pleasant view during cleaning and washing up time.
Likewise, a picture window near a dining area can add an informal extra seat, as this stunning extension demonstrates.
Aim High With Clerestory Windows
Clerestory windows – typically comprising a row of windows or glazing above eye level – can be are ideal for casting a wash of natural light over the room as a whole.
Combine Various Kitchen Extension Glazing Styles
To accomplish a kitchen extension that truly exploits glazing to its maximum potential, you will need to mix and match your favourite styles.
You don’t necessarily need to purchase all your glazing from the same supplier or even use the same materials to create a unified look. In fact, contrasting warm timber with a contemporary aluminium can work quite well.
Track the path the sun takes before you commit to an extension design using a lot of glazing. While it might sound great for a south-facing kitchen conservatory extension to be full of windows, this can result in a greenhouse-like effect where a solar coating needs to be applied or overheating measures enacted.

Do you wish to build a solid bond between your home's outside and interior? With the help of bifold or sliding doors, you can create a continuous surface from a kitchen expansion to the garden using floor tiles that are appropriate for both spaces.
STONE NATURAL TILES FOR THE OUTDOORS
Tiles made of limestone, slate, sandstone, granite, and marble are all possibilities for an outdoor space if natural stone is a must-have. The porous nature of natural stone needs sealing.
Slate is offered in a range of finishes, from dark grey and black to more vivid tiles with red or green tones. It is quite versatile and can be utilized to add character to newer buildings or to create a contemporary look. It lasts for a good while as well. A rough riven finish improves this attribute. Slate's uneven surface is advantageous outside due to its anti-slip qualities.

Consider purchasing models that have been riven or tumbled. Check twice to be sure the limestone is an outdoor-grade stone; some aren't frost-resistant.

Types of Walk-In Wardrobes
Walk-in wardrobes are a very stylish feature for any home. In addition to being functional, they are also a great way to display your clothing and accessories. These wardrobes come in a variety of styles, including mirrored, glass shelving, and transparent.
Transparent wardrobes
Transparent glass walk-in closets are an attractive and functional solution. They are made from tempered glass and painted in a variety of colours. These are very light and sturdy, giving the impression of a larger room. Compared to other types of walk-in wardrobes, they do not take up as much space.
The most popular alternatives include bronze and smoke grey glass. The latter is particularly useful for dressing. Alternatively, you can opt for reflex glass, which looks like a mirror when it is dark.
You can also opt for a more practical approach by installing doors. These can be hinged, sliding or bifold. But whichever you choose, you should have a proper lighting scheme. Otherwise, the contents of the wardrobe may become hidden.
Another way to lighten up your walk-in closet is by using mirror sliding doors. This will give the impression of a brighter, airier room.
Display cabinets
Display cabinets in walk-in wardrobes are a great way to store clothes and accessories. They can be customized to fit your needs. These cabinets can be either glass or wood.
Glass doors in display cabinets add a chic and elegant look to your space. They also provide functional benefits. You can place your shoes or favorite pieces of clothing in them for easy access.
Another way to add glamour to your space is to decorate it with gold details. For example, a white closet with gold accents is a nice way to get the look. Similarly, a gray shaker display cabinet with gold details gives a glamorous feel.
Glass shelves in display cabinets also make your clothes and accessories easier to find. They also increase the space in your room.
Glass shelving
Glass shelving is a great option for walk-in wardrobes. Not only can it be used as a storage solution, but it can also add a touch of class to your design.
Glass products are available from many different manufacturers. One of the most popular alternatives is bronze glass. This is a popular choice because it can help you see inside a dark room when it's illuminated. You can also choose from a variety of other finishes.
Mirrors can add light and a luxurious feel. They can also pull your entire look together. If you're looking to revamp your closet, you might want to consider adding mirrors and lighting to make it more inviting.

To add a touch of luxury to your closet, you can install a framed piece of artwork. Consider using sports memorabilia to add a bit of fun.
