it doesn't really matter these days.
Radiators generally go under windows for 2 reasons. They convect heat up and so reduce drafts ( not such a reaons with double glazing these days ) and the window wall is not so useful for pieces of furniture so the radiator would be best there, leaving the other 3 walls clear.
I'm not convinced by either arguement, i think long curtains over a window do good, so you are stuck if you have a radiator under the window.
I see you are in a terraced house, the outside wall walls would be best if you have ...(Answered by Michael H) |

of course it is going to add value to the house, how much is determined on how well of a job done and also a rising market.
You can get free valuations from any estate agency without any obligation to put it on the market. This might give you a more accurate value on your house presently without costing you a penny. Just a phone call and a small bit of your time to view the estate agency rounds. Good luck and well done on the renovation project....(Answered by Discover) |

I would say find a nice welcome-mat for the entrance. I know when I visit a new office these mats make me feel more at ease right off the bat.
As far as plants go, I would just stick with some realistic-looking artificial plants, you never know who is going to be allergic to what and real plants pose a potential insect infestation problem. Plus they are very low-maintenance.
In every working environment that I have been in, the biggest stress reducer was to have my own personal radio. Just establish some guidelines for respectable levels, and make sure the ...(Answered by ManWarBear) |
