Hi, Please can you help? We have been looking at various kitchen layouts and are in a bit of a quandary about which direction to go in.
Our room is 6415mm long has lots of light and we would like to use the area for a kitchen, dining and have a chillout/lounge area.
Appreciate your thoughts/ideas about we should lay the kitchen out?
Many thanks.
Ben

Best value matt white handleless kitchen
Comments (15)Hi Alicia saw your topic and i know it might be a bit late but i have a range of matt white doors with the deep J profile all at 22mm thick. very competitive price and available from stock. if you're still looking i can get a door sample posted out to you. i also have bespoke cabinets that are made to order in any egger board colour to match the doors. a guide price for a 500 cabinet and door with blum soft close hinges is £95-£100 + vat and delivery. i can also get these doors sprayed in any matt colour if you had a particular white you wanted to match. if you wanted the true handle less doors i can also get Crown Imperial kitchens, they have a large range of the true handle less doors and they have an ultra matt white door, http://www.crown-imperial.co.uk/ my website is, http://lifestylekitchensbedford.co.uk/ hope that's of some help and if you'd like any more information I'd be more than happy to help.

Comments (11)Hi, can I give my two-penny thoughts on this post please? I too am in a similar situation as Julia here. Mine is a linear laminate two-tone kitchen (ordered not yet delivered) with bottom cupboards in faux grey wood effect and top cupboards in a white gloss lacquer. Worktop is in white laminate. My walls are painted white. Like Julia I too need to create colour as a background to the top part of my kitchen which will be white from the worktop upwards. I am currently inclined towards placing a glass splashback that will either cover the whole four-meter wall (less the 60cm fridge at the end) or else just the 80cm part behind the 60cm-wide hob. I personally wouldn't go for a brightly coloured glass splashback because as Minnie says I might tire of it after a while, so it'll likely be clear or frosted or possibly self-designed. Any ideas on those lines for us both perhaps? I agree with you guys that we need to create colour, but couldn't we just paint the walls above and below the top cupboards? That way we could change the colour easily if we'd feel like a cheap uplift along the years :) thanks!!...See MoreDeciding on new kitchen design and colour!
Comments (23)Hi. As it's a little tricky space with 3 doors it may be worth employing a planner. Is there potential to move any doors or block the porch window etc (if the room is light enough). I'm not sure you have enough room to open the oven door safely with a cabinet behind it? I would consider narrow depth base units on the "half" wall opposite the oven for extra storage (and move the rad porch side). The kitchen will also feel much more streamlined if all the appliances are integrated. It may work (?!) if starting from left you go double height larder, ff, wm/TD, sink, DW, hob, space, oven. If you like the yellow then go with it! I would however go for a white worktop with pale grey walls and maybe karndean for the floor with grey and blonde tones. Another option is dark grey units (both yellow and dark grey units may close it in a little) with yellow hexagon tiles on the wall as per the pic in your ideabook (which I also like!)....See MoreHacker Kitchen Laser Soft (light taupe) handleless kitchen
Comments (25)Here’s an example of how to use the method above. All measurements taken are using the device’s own internal light source which is called D65. So straight away you are comparing colours from the same starting point. Using the device, I took measurements of Maggie’s stunning marble work surface. To the naked eye, it appeared a white slab with light grey & dark grey veining. However when measured, the white majority of the slab belonged to the yellow Hue Family & the darkest veins sat in the Yellow-Red Hue Family. Taking further sample measurements of the stone slab flooring, confirmed they too sat in the Yellow Hue Family. So to tie both flooring and work surface together with colour for the island & kitchen units, it made sense to begin looking for colours within the same Hue Family. Getting a Hue Angle reading gives a spot to plot it on the Wheel. The info also gives other key attributes for each colour, making comparison much simpler. Maggie knew she wanted a dark colour for the island, a mid tone for the cupboards & something lighter again for the walls. It’s a new mode of working for most of us home owners, but it’s actually just working with the information companies use to make the colours in the first place. And so it’s a much more objective starting point to finding the right colour for the job. I wish you lots of luck on your quest!...See More
