does this bathroom layout/design work?
Comments (28)Being competely honest I don’t think this will work too well in real life. The gaps down the side of and behind the bath will be constantly damp and prone to mould unless you get down on your knees and dry those bits after every shower.. and I suspect quite a high risk of floor leaks too as it will have to be a wetroom floor but will have the added weight and movement of a large (sometimes full) bath on top... The gap between sink and boiler is going to feel very tight when you come in (although moving the wall will help a bit, but still think it won’t be ideal). And it will all feel quite crowded especially if you have crittal breaking it all up. In your shoes I would either 1) pay to move the boiler, then you can have it all, or 2) have a shower over bath, or 3) accept having a small shower or small bath so you can fit it all in. For example you could have a small shower cubicle next to the boiler, then loo between shower and bath and sink opposite loo - still a bit of a squeeze but much better. Or you could consider those baths which are short but deep for a good soak in a more seated position. If you got a corner one like the Orbit you could put the bath in back left corner, loo in back right and then you’d have space for a decent shower by the boiler....See MoreDoes this kitchen work?
Comments (22)Schmidt, I agree. Also because the traffic line between sofa and stools is rather cramped. Imagine lounging with your legs forwards, while talking to someone on the island stool and then some kids running in through that door. Personally I think I'd like my kitchen to be in the top left, next to the utility, with hob and sink in the island (and chat away with guests/family, looking out into the garden), tall cabinets with a coffee corner on the utility wall. And a spacious dining table with wide open windows onto a patio. Sofa would not be needed, for I'd look for comfy dining chairs. Sigh. Dreams. My kitchen area is 230x150cm and my utility is needed for a fridge, oven, washing machine, coats, shoes, bags and so on.. :)...See MoreExtension/kitchen layout help please!
Comments (7)We have the exact same layout and decided not to extend the living area. There already was a mudroom/utility extension. We did remove the reception-dining wall and chimneys, removed the kitchen-dining wall. Our fridge freezer and oven are in the mudroom. And I cut a rectangle out of the toilet-kitchen wall to make room for a small toilet washbasin, the hole is patched with plywood and tiled on the kitchen side. The desk is next to the dining table, only need to turn the chair around. NB we do have a small cellar where we store food, oven trays and such....See Moresmall kitchen layout design - can this work?
Comments (12)Hi Sarah! The sink is the only one on the app it let me add but yes, wouldn't need a drainer as the dish rack we use has an in-built one that drains straight into the sink anyway, haha. There would be 1m now between the back of the sink and the peninsula which is what we had in our last place between the back run and our island and it was a good space as easy to cook and move to the sink? yes there is always that awkward corner space to deal with which we have already so I guess a good corner pull out might be the best way for that. It's difficult as I liked the sleeker look with a back run and peninsular (first design) but there just wasn't enough worktop space for our appliances. So the boiler is quite high BUT it has ALOT of pipework as it is a split system that runs our flat and separate pipes to the other flats. We are cutting all that out and just having it for ours. to the left of the boiler is an old glass window and if we could move it to the left (and have a run of wall units) then we would. It's going to cost to move all the pipes though so we would probably have to do a false back panel as none of the pipes are buries in the back wall and they stand out (hence why they did the full unit to the worktop to hide them all!). At the moment the kitchen as it is, has too much floor space and no seating at all. We used to live at our peninsula and island in all our previous homes (we did have much bigger kitchens to be fair but they were houses and this is just a flat, lol) But the main bonus is that it would give me a briliant space for baking and cooking on as I have lots of allergies that appeared last year and so I have to make all my own bread and any baked goods. Seating at it (bear in mind the bi-folds will likely be open all year around and are only there for building regs to tick a box (expensive box, LOL) will feel more spacious when the two rooms are opened up. The conservatory (other side of the bifolds) will have a proper insulated and plastered roof and the flooring will run through so it will feel like one room....See More- 10 years ago
