Kerry’s
Open Plan
Living
Project
From an idea on a piece of paper to an amazing open plan living space, Kerry has recently completed her dream renovation project and we are so happy to be part of it!
After being totally inspired by her transformation on @renovation_44, Kerry kindly let us share her journey to help give all of you renovators a little inspo to get you through it and to find out how heating played a part in her new extension.
Meet The Renovator
“Hey I’m Kerry, I’m a home interior/renovation blogger, mommy to two little toddlers and work part time. We purchased our house back in April 2018! We took the whole house back to brick and renovated it all.”
But the hard work didn’t stop there. This interiors aficionado was on a mission and was ready for even bigger projects.
“We then moved onto the garden in March 2019 and in July 2019 we decided to do a wrap around extension which we completed in February 2020!”

During The Renovation
The Exquisite Extension
Kerry is the queen of clean contemporary interiors and the new extension perfectly showcases her personal style and attention to detail.
“I love the open plan design, white contemporary decor is my new favorite not forgetting a hint of gray.”
Kerry’s new radiator not only looks like part of her modern home decor, but the vertical design also makes use of the height of the wall to provide plenty of heat for the large open plan living space.
Finding The Right Rads
So where did the radiators fit into the project planning and how did Kerry decide which design would suit the new stylish space?
“We chose the style of the radiators when we were designing mood boards and I just knew I had to have sleek modern radiators to match the decor!”
Out of all the designer radiators that auditioned to play a part in Kerry’s glamorous project, it was the slim Capri and curved Aruba collections that took the leading heating roles.
Who Said Radiators Have To Be Ugly?
So what does Kerry love about her contemporary radiators and what tips does this reno pro have for choosing a radiator?
“We decided to have horizontal in the playroom and the dining area of the extension. By the TV/ fire wall we decided to have a vertical because let’s face it they are gorgeous! Plus it adds an extra pop of color to the wall!
“The radiators give off so much heat, they were easy to install and look beautiful! Who said radiators have to be ugly!”
Kerry’s Hot Tip
“The main tip I would suggest for you guys is to always look at the BTU output when purchasing your radiators as this is what indicates the best heat range you will be getting. The higher the BTU the better.”
