New kitchen
We added a false Chimney breast to house the range cooker and give the room focus and grandeur.

Our new kitchen
Comments (22)I think that is a lot better. YAY! You'll get good flow from the utility straight into the kitchen with your shopping bags, coats, etc. and it looks like there'll be enough space in the "extended hall" to use it constructively. I do have a couple more questions/suggestions: - The doorway from the utility with the fridge next to it - if the fridge door is open, you won't be able to get through. Also, because the area next to the fridge is all wall cabinets, you might have the "where do I dump things?" issue. I would put another counter on the left wall between the two banks of cupboards. It'll probably only be two or three cabinets and counter, but I think it'll be handy. OR you could put the FF there. - I'd centre the hob on the island, but I think that is a good spot for it. - The other thing is something One Plan raised - walk in pantry? You could have part of the utility dedicated to this, or do you think you'll have enough food storage with the wall cupboard near the ovens (I assume this will be a pull out number as these are really handy to be able to see everything....See MoreSomething is not right in my new kitchen
Comments (87)Hi Laura, thanks for posting. Wow, it looks amazing! Amazing how much difference the floor, splashback and mirror make, it's transformed. Well done. I'm struggling to like a splashback in my new kitchen (even though I chose it) so was looking for inspiration - my partner just doesn't get it and will probably leave me if I even dare to mention changing it :-)...See MoreNew Year, New Kitchen!

Comments (6)If you have a magnet, hold it to the Le Creuset pots. If it sticks to the pot, you can use it on an induction hob. I’ve recently switched from gas to induction. Induction is much quicker and you can let the burner switch off automatically after a set time. And it’s easy to clean. So far the advantages I’ve found. Disadvantages: can’t see the flame, so have to work out what the settings do. I’m taking a long time to get used to that, but then again, I’ve only ever cooked on gas before. Sometimes the pans make an annoying high pitched tone. I had to buy new pans, but my big iron stew pot (not Le Creuset) should work on it. Haven’t used it yet, but it is magnetic. For my other pans I went to IKEA and got a great set with heavy glass lids from there. Very happy with them. Had to say goodbye to one of my big iron frying pans, because the bottom was slightly warped and then it doesn’t work well either. All in all I’m happy with the induction hob. I love the speed. But I think I still prefer gas. Anyway... we have a downdraft in an island, so gas wasn’t an option. But you could do both perhaps? Two gas burners, two induction ones for example?...See More

10 years agoIt looks stunning, I bet you're pleased! The chimney breast and window seat are great and I love the bookshelves. In terms of accessories, perhaps a pestle and mortar, fruit bowl and some faux stems (eucalyptus look good) for the island to bring in some more texture. Pic for ideas. I'd also add a potted herb by the sink. Can you hang Roman blinds outside of the recess? Hard to tell from the pic but if you can I'd go for that, something similar to the wall colour so as not to detract from the windows although I must admit I'd leave them uncovered unless needed for privacy/insulation! Perhaps add some pattern for cushions, there are lots of blue ikat ones around ATM which would complement the island

PRO10 years agoVery lovely kitchen!
We think all that is needed is a personal touch, grasped with accesories. A vase with flowers and some wooden chopping boards would work well, aswell as some decadent pots (which can also become very useful in a busy kitchen).
- 10 years agoI absolutely love this look and the faux chimney is a great touch! I think a fabric patterned blind would add a nice softness the the room, maybe something like this pic. And totally agree with the above post about flowers, pink like in this pic would look gorgeous.
