Help with kitchen colours
Comments (8)I agree with hortonhearsawhorton. Which does the room face though and how much light does it get? I also agree re the floor, maybe look at one of the oaks which has the warm oak tones in but also a little grey? Chrome would look good as would polished nickel ( typically dearer though!). I think your best bet is to get samples of everything. Paint large pieces of paper with 3 coats and hang them all round the room and look at them at different times of the day. I have elephants breath in my hall and landing, it's a beautiful colour, but I also have it on stair panelling which is next to a kitchen cabinet painted in a mid lead ( LG) and it is distinctly mushroomy there....See MoreFireplace Revamp!
Comments (8)Ok firstly put led strips to the rear of each shelf then replace the tiles with plain ones perhaps the ones which appear to look like hematite, I can see you like grey so paint the chimney breast and the fire surround and also the shelves and the lower cupboards in the shade you like best(do not be afraid of being bold, it's only paint and time if you get it wrong.) then insert mirrors to the back of each shelf, you will be surprised how much bigger the room looks. Do the floor dark and the rest of the walls something pale like F&B cornforth white do the skirtings and doors white or otherwise the same as the fireplace etc. (If you go with the dark option then opt for a really pale rug) go to www.rugcouture.com and ask for samples then do windows with shutters or Romans something simple and in a pale coloured orate shelves with a mixture of books and ornaments anyway that's what I would do but whatever you choose enjoy it and have fun. Contact me at thebrownhouseinteriors@outlook.com if you want any more advice. Lovely room btw...See MoreFitted vs Freestanding?
Comments (6)The fitted one looks a lot more elegant and has more storage space!...See Morekitchen cabinets
Comments (5)You cant know for how long the dark blue will still be around, it is trendy for some time already, and it will probably go out of style sooner or later. Vs the moles breath witch is more of a natural colour and is more likely to still work in years to come. #my opinion...See Morehouse mad

8 years agoHi Mairead, we used Mole's Breath and Strong White in one of our kitchens.
There might not be enough contrast between Cornforth and Moles Breath.Have a look at our project page as there are quite a few kitchens in similar Farrow and Ball colours.

8 years agoThanks Mairead! They seem popular as kitchen blind fabrics. We are also doing a seating area seat pad in Windmill Wood Rock Grey (upholstery quality) too which should be timeless with it twist. It's one of my favourites. I'll post some pics when it's done. I'm new to Houzz so have many images to upload from zoeglencross.com

8 years agoSorry it's me again. Would welcome all your fab advice. We are looking at getting a breakfast pantry, but unsure whether we should go for lights & glass shelves or no lights & wooden shelves similar to one in pic? Any thoughts guys? Thank you

8 years agoHi mairead I would go for wooden veneer shelves and a silestone shelf at the bottom. We have a larder and a countertop unit both with this set up. The silestone is easily wiped down then. You do have to dry the bottom of cups though otherwise they leave a water stain on the shelves. Also consider pocket sliding doors so they can be pushed right back out of the way. Make sure you get the shelf heights right to suit your appliances too. Hope that helps!

5 years agoWe got a sliding door system, then you can move each panel separately and if you want just open the main door and then slid each panel so you get air into your room, without people getting cold. All panels are on a sliding track system and means you just have to the panels you want to. Hope that helps.
