Hi,
Unfortunately the mirror wasn't supplied by us, it will only be a mirror not a cabinet but unfortunately we don't know who the manufacturer is.

Recessed lighting in kitchen

Thanks for getting back to me. Yes, I suppose I should have attached an image. Here's my drawing, there has been a few adjustments but it is basically the same. The blank spot is been set aside as a family area. I appreciate the need for good light in the kitchen and I'd like to go for recessed lighting but my fear would be that there would be to many of these lights and it might look like a shop! If I were to opt for recessed lighting how many would I roughly need? Would it be best just to keep the recessed lighting in one half of the room - kitchen or family side? The large circle is a table top where we can eat and there will be a suspended light hanging over it. After reading perry525 remarks it occurred to me that I'm extremely left handed and I suppose I'd have to take that into account, Your opinions welcomed. Cara

I can't help but speculate that perhaps the reason so many houses featured are London based or more high-end properties is because most of the case studies are uploaded by architecture or design professionals who employ professional photographers to show off the finished results. These services aren't cheap and I don't imagine these companies get too many requests from owners of smaller 30's - 70's era homes, especially from outside the capital, because the homeowners won't see a return on the investment. I would have thought requesting design-savvy home owners load more of their own photo's would help bridge the gap. Perhaps on the next newsletter you can ask homeowners to consider contributing any photos of spaces they are particularly proud of?

Chimney breast - creating a stylish TV recess
Q
Comments (21)
Hello, It seems to me that the chimney sticks out about 350 - 400mm into the room. That's a lot of potential space. The TV is probably 50mm deep. That leaves 300mm of space doing what? I would suggest removing the chimney breast completely throughout the house. This should not cost more than about £5,000. Then I would build a bit of stud for the TV and any other elements I wanted and gain additional space on the ground floor and first floor. If you remove the chimney on the ground floor get an engineer to design a suitable support and remember any structural supports have to be signed off by building control.

mirror over wash basin
Q

Hello again, We would suggest placing down lights approximately 75cm from the edge of the ceiling. If they are positioned too close to a wall it will create shadows around the edge of the ceiling. This can make the room appear dull and smaller than it actually is. By having enough distance from the edge of the ceiling, it will allow light to spread and fill up the whole room. Place one or two down lights above mirrors to allow adequate lighting for washing or shaving. Too many can wash out the space. It is useful to calculate the spacing between down lights by dividing the height of the ceiling by 2 and using the result as the separation distance. However, do consider other factors such as room shape, windows, etc. We hope that helps! If you have any other queries, please do get in touch. Best regards, The Opun Team
