What window treatment??
Comments (15)we have the same windows as in picture and installed stiff almost starched type voile blinds one blind covers our three panelled full sliding doors and recesses into the ceiling so when the doors are fully open you dont see the blind. The second window (2 metres wide and 1.5 high have two blinds meeting at the central bar of the window, so you can only have one blind down when sun is shining in very strongly. They are working well for us....See MoreWindow door treatments
Comments (8)Hi Aysha, There are a couple of systems that might suit - Day and Night Transition blinds http://www.hillarys.co.uk/blinds-range/day-night-transition%E2%84%A2-blinds/ layer two Pleated fabrics, and you could pick a sheer and another option. Here's a picture of how that might look: Alternatively, Day and Night Roller blinds are a Roller blind that works like a Venetian, layering fabric stripes against each other. There's more info here - http://www.hillarys.co.uk/blinds-range/day-night-roller-blinds/ and they look like this: Zoe...See MoreKitchen window treatment
Comments (20)Here's a quick sketch combining wooden slatted blinds, grey with dark tapes to match your island on the inside frame , nice Roman blinds on the outside frame to soften and warm use a cool print to keep it up to date,big soft window seat cushions feather and down for luxury with some cushions to tie it all together! The kitchen should be treated like an entertaining space and feel that with delightful cabinetry it should be finished off in a tailored,bespoke and charming way without feeling old fashioned.

Comments (11)There are a few problems:- If you run the units right down the right hand wall, you make the space in the dining room narrower. You need approx 7ft plus across for dining table, that's 3 ft for the table and 2 ft for a chair either side to be pulled out in order to sit down. This leaves you with about 1ft between the side of the table and the kitchen unit next to it. Also, you will have a nib on the left hand wall where the dining room ends and the kitchen begins due to the steel that needs to sit on top of it, ( the size of the nib will be dictated by the construction of the wall & what it's supporting above ) so the space will still look divided if you don't disguise it with units above. ( Don't forget the party wall agreement ! ) I don't think you have space for units right the way down and the table and chairs. Plus you are limiting yourself to just over 6 metres of units, once you start putting an integrated fridge, then freezer, washing machine, dishwasher, you won't have much left for all the food plus pots & pans, drawers etc. All this and the dining table is not near the garden, where it would be better off. ( in my opinion ) You also need to consider the windows at the dining room end as they look quite close to the wall, will you be able to fit a unit in there without going across the window? You also need to consider the windows at the dining room end as they look quite close to the wall, will you be able to fit a unit in there without going across the window? If you could overcome the plumbing and it should be possible, then maybe you'd be better of with this:- Move the kitchen to the dining room and have the ' U' shape in there. You can still have just units on the bottom, you'll have over 9 metres of wall space for units so a third more. You won't need to worry about the nib being in the way. The dining area will be plenty big enough for the table and chairs, and you'll be able to eat and look on to the garden. You should be ok with the plumbing, it's only water feed and water waste from the sink, dishwasher and washing machine. It has to go under the floor further but at least it's not a soil pipe!...See MorePauline Giroux
