Flat vs Pitched roof rear extension
Q

If you're leaning more towards a pitched roof, perhaps you could extend your glazing right up into the gable to maximize the light coming in. I've attached a couple of images of projects where we have done just that. The first was necessary due to it being a listed building so we suggested an additional tiled roof would be more in keeping than, for example, a flat roof with a roof lantern. The second was on a lovely Victorian terrace in Coggeshall and again, we suggested echoing the original architecture with a pitched roof and glazed gable. If you would prefer an orangery style extension, despite some previous comments it is definitely possible to have a space that is a nice even temperature all year round, doesn't collect lots of flies and doesn't leak. We have built these for 30 years. All of our roof lanterns are available with solar controlled glass and motorised vents, plus the combination of masonry and glass (as opposed to a traditional conservatory which is mostly glass) provides a a more consistent room temperature anyway. We offer a 10 year guarantee on our joinery, glass and paint coatings (parts and labour) - that's how confident we are that it won't leak. We also use Accoya wood in our products which is incredibly durable, stable, moisture resistant, fungus proof, inedible to insects and thus incredibly low maintenance. It's definitely worth googling Accoya if you're considering going for a structure that incorporates timber joinery.

Hi. That door doesn't actually seem to let in much light and the current worktop and units aren't bouncing a lot of light so I'm wondering if you need a window once the wall is down? What if you extended the FF run to the end of that run adjacent to the oven and had mirrored backed shelves within a cabinet? (Hope that makes sense!)I think the light units will make a huge difference anyway and you can add a large mirror opposite the patio doors. I agree with the earlier comment re extending the peninsula under the 2nd window. I love banquettes so might lose the sofa in favour of! Here's a link. It's a way off but as you have so many doors I'd paint them all in the wall colour so they blend in. I'd also integrate all the appliances if possible http://www.angelandboho.com/dining-banquettes--chairs-305-c.asp

Hello Billy, thanks for your kind comments! Yes it does look amazing :-). Yes, I'm having all Siemens appliances, the kitchen shop gets a good deal on that brand so I thought I'd go for it, otherwise I would probably have gone for Bosch or Neff if sourcing appliances myself. Miele would have been out of my budget. The ovens you see are 1 Siemens self cleaning combination microwave/oven and 1 combination full steam/oven. I think some new models are out already and if they are out, it means you can get the older model for a cheaper price, which is great unless there is a must have function in the new model you can't do without and the current Siemens ovens do look good anyway. If you've already decided on the brand, design and the shop, you can still ask for a discount, in fact most of the independent shops I went to did offer some discount when I asked ( not much discount but better than nothing ). Yes, having an extension built ( approx. 5.5m x3m ) with pitched roof, 3 velux and sliding doors ( as in picture ), the shell has been built, steels in etc now waiting for 1st fix for electrician. Btw, I don't mean to be nosey into your kitchen design but do you really need 4 ovens? I know we always see them in glossy magazines/photos and it does look good, I also wanted 4 ovens too for the look but then decided it was pointless if I didn't need to use 4 ovens and you would save some money too. On your island ( if you have space ), you could consider an overhang of the worktop on the opposite side of the sink so people could sit there, as I've heard from people with islands that when guests come over, everyone hangs around the island and those that don't have an overhang wish they did. You can chat with your guests whilst cooking/ preparing. If you have older kids and want to get them involved, they can sit on that side and perhaps help prepare too :-). That's my vision for my kitchen anyway :-).
