I like the "before" better than the "after".

Seriously, if they’d said the budget was nothing and they just used paint and mdf they had lying around I wouldn’t have been surprised!

I don't know where the 2k went. They also don't tell you how much it wil cost to reverse it at the end of your tenancy

It's 'less than $2k' - they actually spent $510 ;)

Can't imagine many landlords would be happy with that desk on the wall.

The makeover Looks rather "institutional" and dated (in my own opinion of course)

If any of my tenants asked to do that, would probably reticently accept, but yeah, would tell them that they will have to reinstate the room back to how it was originally when it comes to the end of the Tenancy....

That's exactly where the extra risk for the landlord is.

What should have happened is a increase to the maximum bond able to be asked for.

Regardless how much money they spent it still looks crap

The 'after' looks like something the '70's rejected.

Notice how the designer renos have "clever" ides like the drop down desk but get rid of the useful stuff like the bedside table and chest of drawers for clothes??
Mind you if they're like my kids were the floor becomes their "storage system".

isn't using rainbow nowadays sending a message rather than just being a rainbow? They got the colours of the rainbow wrong, is this also a message? Is this thread sexist because most people seem to prefer the "before"? I am too scared to say anything else...

is the sausage pillow also sending the message??? Why did they change pink sheets to white ones?

evoalg - 2021-05-08 14:31:00

they even put the instructions of how to make the rainbow headboard. they don't include "get the colours right" at all... https://www.mitre10.co.nz/guides-and-advice/guide/how-to-mak

in "after"- the table away from the light source and no lamp provided. I also do not see any power points. truly horrible room and a video. Imagine now much paint would be left from "the rainbow"...

Don't over analyse it evoalg - its not a secret message for the cabal of elitist child molesterers.

there are TWO closets in the room, both have peeking blinds... Turd pillow summarises it well.

It upsets me that you'd want to be part of the cover-up, sparky.
