Thank you everyone for your comments so far, some really good ideas! I'm definitely feeling the tuxedo trend at the moment (and colourhappy's picture about looks like it might go with the counters) but would the Range then look out of place? Unfortunately, because of the temperature of the room, we've had to put a rug on the floor just to give us a little softness underfoot - so it doesn't really feature in our scheme plan. love all your mock ups celerygirl, really helpful! I really like all the variations on green, but the husband isn't so keen, but I'll show him all the others to see if that sparks anything. All the doors have weird latches on instead of handles, so next it'll be deciding on what to replace them with! thanks all

sorry, I thought the pale colour was the counter you were looking at. so that's the cabinet door colour? hold it vertically when comparing to floor, and have the floor and countertop on the horizontal. the paler countertop is definitely a green-gray and works nicely with the paler green-undertone greige cabinets. I think colour-wise they work together - and I prefer the lighter one than the black one, especially if in a dark kitchen - you could go lighter too if you wanted to lighten it up further, but don't have to. with a countertop with such a lot of movement, I'd suggest a very simple subway tile for backsplash (I know you're not asking!) to keep it from getting overly complicated looking. if your kitchen is open to any other rooms, also just check that any undertones in there work too eg. if it was open to a dining/living area with a stone fireplace for example, or if you have a neutral coloured sofa or upholstery/fabrics.

You need a couple of base decor panels to be fitted to the 150 pull outs, that will be 18mm extra, then for the rest i'd get rid of the corner post and make my own corner solution so the 150 units can be moved closer to the oven. Unfortunately its poor design and your fitter has followed the design and as the designer has supplied fixed size corner posts you get left with gaps.

Problem with bar height stools they aren’t comfortable for working for long hours. Will be fine for an hour or two.
