Here are the results of the survey you took. First I want to thank all of you who took the time to take the survey. We really wanted you to be part of CoolBoom.

As you already know, the general look will maintain the same. We want you to enjoy more of CoolBoom so we are going to stick with the photo layout but make them all bigger.

Also, we are going to start including some products from time to time like at the beginning, but only if they are really worth it. And we will include a poll to see if you agree.

We really enjoy a beautiful, well designed interior� and so do most of you. This means we will try to include more inspirational interiors with great solutions.

At the moment we will not include advice and design solutions for readers, even though most of you seem to like this kind of post. We would like to include it in the future.

And from time to time we will include a great photography in the weekend links.

Nice to see the results. Most stricking one to me:

Would you like the posts to be more casual, less serious?
Yes, I really enjoy an honest opinion. 47%
No, I prefer to read the facts / information provided by the designer. 52%

I think you can actually combine the two. It’s not like you have to leave out the facts when giving an honest opinion.

Oh, and I forgot to tell why the result of this one is stricking to me … I value an opnion higher than the facts. The facts are easy to find, an opinion that has some good thought behind it is priceless.

What about including a poll on the new products so you can vote if its Love it or Leave it?

I think a thumbs up and down option would be a great addition for this.
