re: the counter in front of the window

6 years ago

Can you tell me more about the cupboard/counter in front of the wall cabinet to the right of the window? Is it moveable? How do you access the blue cabinet if it isn't moveable? what is the idea behind having it there? Thanks for your time.

The blue units have copper handles for access. does this answer the question? There is an open niche for easy access to coffee machine etc. thankyou for your interest.

Having looked through your idea book, I would say that 70 percent of the pictured have a similar style to them, broadly speaking. Warmer tones, some darker wood / walnut, many of them handleless. As a next step, I would go back to all the pictures and write down the elements that appeal to you, and be quite specific. If there is one picture that stands out to you as having the right overall balance you can use this as a template when planning your kitchen, even if for example it has shaker doors, but you might want handleless. You also need to consider how the kitchen will look against existing elements in the room, and things you might be planning for the living area. Then consider the practical elements, ie pros and cons of different doors, finishes, worksurfaces etc. Some of this will depend on your circumstances, do you cook a lot, want easy to clean etc? There's lots of articles on Houzz covering that kind of thing. Budget will also play a big part. For my part, I went with a handless German kitchen, with a matt finish with a quartz worktop. I cook a lot and have found this combination very easy to keep clean.

Ideas for the re-design of the front of our house

Thanks for your suggestions. We have decided to extend the porch under a gable ended roof and demolish the car port. The only remaining problem is what to do with the white wooden cladding? Also, when the car port is demolished there will be holes to fill/cover up on the house and garage wall and we would also dearly like to get rid of the white wooden cladding above the garage door! We could replace the wood cladding with hanging tiles and continue them across the front of the house. Or is there some more modern cladding that we could use and continue it all across the front of the house, down the side of the garage and across the top of the garage door? Or just render the whole of the front of the house?

Hi, here are a couple of mixed countertops examples. I like your floor. See if you can take the cabinets all the way up to the ceiling. Looks better, gives more storage space (even if you can only reach it using a stepladder). The floor doesn't limit you on the cabinet colours. See if you can take door samples home and hold them on the floor (vertically, so it shows the colour as it would be when installed). Do the same with countertop samples. Put them all together and make your choice. Or post photos and ask opinions here, if you can't make a choice at all :-) A light countertop will reflect more light, make the kitchen seem brighter. You can mix that with a dark wood. I will see if I can find one of the pro houzzers to look at your dilemma, so they can give you answers to the more technical questions. No promises, but I'll try :-)

Sounds good to me. My sister has a 50s semi with golden bricks. She’s just had a total refurb and has had all the windows changed to anthracite grey, as well as the front door. Looks really good.
