Kitchen layout advise/opinions
Comments (12)Great advice guys. Regarding the sink / dishwasher - I completely agree, an oversight at 2am (it's addictive this planning). With regards to the middle of the house, I'm completely torn. I have drawn several other options where we have created a den for the kids in the old kitchen, the utility and W/C up against the living room wall and then used the breakfast room as a study/homework room but my better half is very keen to replicate the ability to see throughout the house as much as possible as we have this in our current home. An earlier drawing blocked off the existing hallway after the stairs and had a crittal style window in enabling you to see into the kitchen but provides more wall space for units - freeing up the other end for full width industrial Windows/doors....... Decisions decisions. On that note - any recommendations for architects/designers (suitable for drawings to be submitted under permitted development/structural engineers report and tradesmen instructions) that cover north Kent (Medway)? Thanks all...See MoreHelp please...kitchen floor advise needed please.

Comments (13)I would lose the wooden counter top and pull out larder. Put the hob next door but one to the sink with an extractor above. This will break up the run of wall units. Also think about when you are cooking pasta, filling up a saucepan with water and then draining it. You don't need to cross the room. Where you going to put bin, dishwasher and microwave? I would agree you need more drawers. I love my new pan drawers they hold alot. But my pull out larder does not and things fall down the back all the time. Also when you are taking something out of the oven, where are you going to put it? I never understand why designers put oven and fridges next to one another....See MoreKitchen Extension-Layout Options and advise
Comments (14)Is it a double Storey extension? I ask because I think it will be quite unbalanced for a 3 bed, 1 bathroom house, with too much unused living space? Or are you creating another bedroom upstairs. If not, why not just open up the whole of the back, rather than extend? To me, that amount of living space equates to a house with 5 beds, 3 bathrooms.... just my thoughts.......See Moredenisecollinson

8 years agoHello,
Your kitchen looks amazing so far!
I noticed you have already started adding some colours. You have neutral colours so adding red, blue, yellow, orange could go definitely. If I was in your case I would pick one or two colours and add some ornaments, furniture pieces.
