MAKE THIS WALL A FOCAL POINT
MARTIN, HELLO, WHAT IS GOING ON.
>> SO ARE YOU IN CHARGE OF THE
DESIGN.
>> OKAY, WHEN I DID LOOK AT THE
HOME I MADE SOME SUGGESTIONS AND
ADD SOME DETAIL.
THE IDEA IS TO ADD THIS LATTICE
TRIM IT IS FAUX WOOD.
I WANT TO TRIM THE WALL AND ARE
YOU SAYING TO ADD POSSIBLY SOME
RECTANGLE PANELS.
AS A BACKDROP.
>> YES, WHAT WE'RE GOING FOR IS
THE TEXTURE.
>> THAT DETAILING.
>> LET'S GO OUT AND START
CUTTING WOOD OR THE FAUX WOOD.
>> I'M READY.
>> SO THEN, I AGAIN THE PROJECT
IDEA IS TO CREATE THE EFFECT OF
PANELING ON THE WALL, YOU WANTED
RECTANGLE SHAPES?
>> YES, I WANTED SQUARE, BUT IT
IS ALL ABOUT YOU WE'RE GOING TO
DO RECTANGLE.
SO THIS IS THE IDEA, YOU KNOW,
CREATE THIS EFFECT ON THE WALL
ITSELF.
BUT MULTIPLY MANY TIMES OVER.
AND SO THE FIRST THING WE'LL
FRAME IT OUT ON THE WALL.
THEN WE'LL TAKE THE MEASUREMENTS
WE WANT THE PANELS TO BE
UNIFORM.
>> THE WOOD DETAILING MARTIN
SUGGESTED WE DO SQUARES.
I SAID NO LET'S GO RECTANGLES
AND HE SAID WELL THAT WAS MY
CHOICE BUT IF THAT'S WHAT YOU
WANT THAT'S WHAT WE'LL DO.
THAT'S WHAT WE'RE DOING.
, WE HAVE THE FRAME IF PLACE.
AT THE TIME DEFINES THE ROOM.
THE CROSS BEAMS, THE LATTICE THE
STRIP SO WE CAN PLAY WITH THE
WIDTH OF THE PANEL.
>> OKAY.
>> AND GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE
>> IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT.
>> I FEEL LIKE THAT WORKS MORE
JUST T ME.
>> YOU WALK IN IT IS LIKE IT IS
RIGHT LEVEL WITH THE EYE,
REMEMBER YOU HAVE TO KEEP TAKE
INTO ACCOUNT WHEN YOU SIT DOWN
AT THE TABLE IT IS WHERE YOU
APPRECIATE IT THE FACT IT IS NOT
TOP HEAVY IS GOOD. IT IS LIGHT
AND AIRY.
IT CONNECTS NICELY TO THE TABLE
T IS A MATTER OF PREFERENCE.
THE HEIGHT AS WE SAID IS
30 INCHES OFF THE TABLE.
THIS SIS AT 32.
IT CAN GO UP ANOTHER 5 INCHES.
TO YOUR LIKING IT IS NOT GOING
TO MAKE THAT BIG OF
DIFFERENCE.
I SAY GO UP 5 INCHES, SHE IS THE
BOSS.
