<strong>Clipsal</strong> Essential Checklist<br />
When looking at<br />
decorating a room,<br />
where do you start?<br />
Well, everyone works in different and interesting<br />
ways, so do what works best for you. However, it is<br />
important <strong>to</strong> think about <strong>the</strong> whole room, not just<br />
one particular aspect of it. For instance, everyone<br />
seems <strong>to</strong> forget about window furnishings until<br />
<strong>the</strong> very end. But <strong>to</strong>day, window furnishings are<br />
more than just sticking up a rod with a curtain<br />
on it. They may need <strong>to</strong> be recessed in<strong>to</strong> pelmets<br />
and <strong>the</strong>re may be electronics related <strong>to</strong> that. You<br />
need <strong>to</strong> think about whe<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong>y’ll be built in<strong>to</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong> reveal, and if <strong>the</strong>y are, whe<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong>re’s going <strong>to</strong><br />
be au<strong>to</strong>mation or heating and cooling outlets – it<br />
should all be part of <strong>the</strong> basic house design.<br />
From <strong>the</strong>re, consider flooring – what sort do<br />
you want? Then, whe<strong>the</strong>r you want under-floor<br />
heating… Things like that.
