I am doing gloss cabinets and a matte finish porcelain that resembles real wood planks.

sounds lovely, but I am using my old Ercol dining furniture in the dining end of the kitchen which is in a med oak. I am a little scared of doing an overkill on wood.

If you have a large area rug going under the table and chairs then a wood floor might work well ?!

Hi John, Let me know if you are still looking for a new kitchen, I am pretty sure that we have something unique for you, but I would rather chat about it by phone/private message. Have a nice evening, Erwin (Sunstudio)

A pale warm stone coloured splash back would work with the units and complement the rich wood. Have you tried standing one of the floor tiles up against it to see how warm neutrals would look?

Matt vs Gloss Kitchen Units?

I have a super Matt dove grey handleless kitchen at my main home and a gloss white kitchen in my holiday home in Somerset. I can compare the two. It’s easy to clean the gloss doors. Either wipe with a damp cloth and buff up or use Vuplex. Job done. Granted they’re gloss so show the marks more easily. Super matt doors, now although they don’t necessarily show the marks, they are there and once the light shines in the right direction on them they look bad. Even if you look at them at a specific angle with the light on them you can see the marks. Nightmare. I’m speaking from experience here. How do you clean them? Well I use a magic eraser and sometimes it works well, other times not so well. Vuplex, mmmm, well I’m of the opinion that this product should be used on gloss only although that’s not what I’m told by my door manufacturer. So the other alternative is a soapy cloth, wrung out almost dry, wipe over and then buff up. Tried them all and no the heavy marks are still there .... and I’m not a mucky person. That’s just my experience and opinion. For looks I prefer the Matt as opposed to gloss but the cleaning of them is another matter .... unless anyone has any other ideas, and I’d gladly welcome them.
