I do not like a red wall behind TV, black and white wallpaper patterns behind sofa, it's just look to much and to agresive for the space. All options are opened: wallpapers, stencils, frames... modern or traditional, I have no ideas, but just want to change. I just would like to have a nice design conections betwen kitchen, dining room and living room space.

I'm slightly confused by trying to follow this thread, so apologies if this duplicates. Which way does the kitchen window face? Unless there is good reason-direct South? -it may be a pity to demolish any 1920's integrity, especially if only to install dated bi-fold doors. A large aluminium deco style window might be a better idea as it will add character as well as extra low level storage possibilities.Your doors to the garden could be sliding, with glazing bars, or Double French doors. (Photo suggestions attached) If you follow the graph paper plan, then you could also put a sink, dishwasher and noisy machinery in the utility area so that your main living space isn't affected by washing up. It could be a great prep area too and keep unnecessary noise to a minimum as acoustics are really important in a communal space. Food for thought! Best of luck.

It's Schuller and the designer only drew what I wanted. He hasn't given me any alternative layouts yet. Do you think they will make another design for me before I sign the contract? To be honest, It's been so so hard for choosing a kitchen brand because of people's attitude in the North East. I went to Howdens and Wren as well as Bespoke but the owner of Howdens wasn't nice and didn't give me any information because I asked for a business account and mentioned about my builder who has a very good partnership with him. So he didn't want to give me any prices. Wren's designer was very rude and had a terrible attitude but I quite liked Wren's true handleless design only if I had a well mannered designer. Bespoke designer was very experienced and quite liked but they don't make true handleless. Also he said I have to be committed other than that he wouldn't give me any quote and if I am not buying it's wasting his time. I couldn't believe he said that. Lastly, I went to Schuller and I expected that it will be very expensive but it was actually a lot less than Wren and designer and the owner was so polite and quality in my eyes was very good. All in all quite happy with them except they don't make custom sizes.

Hi, I don't think it will dominate the space once the unit is painted/tiled. At the moment, the reason it seems to stick out is due to the colour contrast between the green and plaster. If you tile it/ paint it a similar shade to the tiles, it will blend in and look a part. And ofcourse, it will serve as great storage which is always a requirement.
