We name rooms and we’re building this sunroom and we want a word that is not used commonly by everyone, possibly a romantic french word meaning sunroom.I’ve had no luck with dictionaries and I’ve been unable to find a synonym anywhere on the web, Help.
In actuality this will be an all season room, with two walls of windows and 4 big skylights both entrances into this room also have glass doors.

Over the last couple of weeks, I noticed that the sunroom of the house I am purchasing has been developing alot of condensation; then twice last week - ice had formed on all the windows. Carpet inside is damp and room is musty. I also discovered that the heating bills in this house were $350 per month which meant that they were heating not only their house, but the sunroom in order to keep the condensation/ice from forming. I was told by my agent that the heat for the home would only run me around $150.00 dollars. This creates alot of problems for me: I was not budgeting for a $350 heating bill; this room needs serious renovation to make it a livable room - another unplanned expense. I investigated sunrooms and they should not have condensation/ice. The room defects were not apparent at the time of the inspection nor were any problems with the room disclosed in the contract. I want to back out of this contract. What am I looking at here? Deposit loss; being sued; forced to buy?

This backroom (white painted pine) was starting to fall apart. In a few years we’ll likely pull it down for an addition, but for now we want to use it.

We had pressure treated stairs put in last year after the old ones collapsed. We noticed joist and panel rot, so the contractor did a great job repairing it, but now we have a backroom that has the bottom half in red cedar, the top half in peeling white paint over white pine, and stairs in raw pressure treated pine/fir/whatever.

I plan to strip the paint with a pressure washer. The cedar is so nice it would be a shame to paint it, so should I just clear-coat everything, stain it cedar, etc?

FYI, we have a cedar fence that we could stain to match. The back of the house is mostly light (i.e. yellow) brick. The ceiling, soffits, troughing of the backroom is white and the roof black.

Any design advice would be appreciated!!!!

I just bought an Audi A4. The sun room is slow and when it is moving it will sometimes jitter/ vibrate. I greased the tracks, and that seemed to help a little. Any other suggestions? I hear that this model has issues w/ the sunroom.
The tilt seems to have a mind of its own as well. I read something on the internet about the switch possibly being bad.
