Hi, there are no doors. It is a simple opening.

Hi Adam, we also looked at both sliding doors and slide and turn for our opening and were shocked at the price of the slide and turns. One thing that a few designers and window providers said to us was that essentially slide and turn doors (or bifold doors) look better when they are open, and sliding doors look better when they are closed (as they tend to have fewer panels and so less view is blocked by pane). As we are based in London, where for most of the year the doors will be closed, we were advised by everyone to go with sliding doors. (NB our opening is wider, so it was a difference between 3 sliding door panels or 6/7 slide and turn panels).

Pocket doors - yes or no?

For an opening that doesn't get used all the time, they're fab. For a door that gets opened and closed all the time, I wouldn't bother as they're a bit more fiddly. In your situation I think they'd be great - am planning something similar for our new space. Just need a good carpenter who will hide the fittings - can be top-hung and/or have a rail on the floor - prefer the top-hung as then the floor is not messed with. Sorry don't have any UK manufacturers to recommend, we had them custom-made in our previous house in the US (standard door; custom framework and fittings to make them work).

Removed a wall between kitchen and living room - to block one door?
Q

I am thinking that with the load bearing wall removed between the kitchen and the "bedroom" on the plan you now have 2 doors very close to each other on the right of your main entrance. I would lose the one from the hallway as you can access the kitchen through the lounge now. You could consider a new door in a better access position maybe closer to the front door. There's more walking around involved but not a huge amount. If the kitchen door was removed you could have a table or a banquette opposite the working space.
