SavvyCruiserNJ Posted November 27, 2011 #76 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Does anyone know... If Princess Grill and Queens Grill are getting the same "Hypnotic Zebra that Matches Nothing Else In The Room" treatment? Is it possible to upgrade out of this interior design treatment?

jcruizer Posted November 27, 2011 #77 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I cant remember what the carpet was like before but it does not really bother me. I would have hated orange/red or green but can live with this one. I think it will be a case of seeing it for myself.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SavvyCruiserNJ Posted November 27, 2011 #78 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Yes I suppose its one step up... From orange, red and green clown pants - though polka dots would be less offensive to the eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guernseyguy Posted November 27, 2011 #79 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Aesthetics aside (it looks hideous, but I suppose one has to see it in person) it's also jolly impractical - those white waves are going to show dirt/spills/etc in no time - far too regular a pattern too, to obscure accidents...

I read that the suites may be getting a different design treatment. ( a better one i hope! ) Hopefully theres a path to upgrade away from the hypnotic zebra floor. I cant imagine having to stare at that for a week - it seems to mess with your depth perception and will probably give folks a headache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithm Posted November 27, 2011 #90 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Bedspreads and drapes are being changed this week, sure hope they match Just love the hat. LOL!

SavvyCruiserNJ Posted November 27, 2011 #91 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Cunard says (on Facebook) that the photo of the stateroom with he zebra carpeting has not yet been fully converted (only the carpeting has been changed). I do hope they make me eat my own critical words and deliver a fantastic interior! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southwestie Posted November 27, 2011 Author #92 Share Posted November 27, 2011 As I said before I was told they will be changing all the drape and covers to somehow match or compliment the carpets, remains to be seen now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephen@stoneyard.co.uk Posted November 27, 2011 #93 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I don't like the rendering of the Golden Lion. The carpet and tiled area around the bar. How many different patterns can we take. Interesting that they are putting up those fixed partitions. Surely they reduce the flexibility of the floor plan. I thought multi purpose rooms were the general idea on ships. I never use the Golden Lion so cannot really object. Best wishes, Stephen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Scrapnana Posted November 27, 2011 #94 Share Posted November 27, 2011 As I said before I was told they will be changing all the drape and covers to somehow match or compliment the carpets, remains to be seen now Can't imagine what would "match or compliment" that carpeting. I'm hoping I will be surprised (in a good way) with the finished product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salacia Posted November 27, 2011 #95 Share Posted November 27, 2011 PARTIAL QUOTE I quite like the carpet by the way - nice sort of nautical theme. Lots of little wavey type billowy things. Very maritime. J Cruachan, I agree with you about the "nautical theme"... kind of like an oil slick floating on a choppy sea :eek::D -S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do hope they make me eat my own critical words and deliver a fantastic interior! The cabin photographed on this thread was occupied by me two weeks ago and I can tell you that the curtains pictured were new ones hung during the voyage (although the curtain tie is the old one). There may be others coming but if so I don't know why I got these. There were bales of a different carpet at the fore of deck 6 (multi coloured dots on beige background) - whether there are different carpets on different decks remains to be seen. I was told conflicting things about whether inside cabins for eg would be subjected to the zebra number or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would seem silly to hang new ones and then change them, so we will find out soon, but I was told all new furnishing and these really dont match. I wonder if the carpet you saw is for the hall ways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenno10388 Posted November 28, 2011 #99 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Do we have anyone traveling on the QM2 first thing after refit willing to photograph and post all the changes for us!?! Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salacia Posted November 28, 2011 #100 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Do we have anyone traveling on the QM2 first thing after refit willing to photograph and post all the changes for us!?! Cheers Jenno, I won't be onboard until QM2 reaches NY on 19Dec. Hopefully, others will post their photos before I board, but if I can add anything new, I will do my best to reciprocate in return for other members who are so very generous in sharing their photos/artwork, experiences and opinions while on board. BTW, I think I've found a new use for the green pool towels: blankies for the Zebras! :eek: cheers, Salacia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
