6 years ago

Hi, love the look here. Such a simple but beautiful room. Can you tell me the countertop brand and color? Is it a Geos stone? Thank you.

The countertop is by Trend. It is glass in an aggregate. The style/color way is Trend Q 48.

Hi there, we always specify a lacquered finish for our oak worktops as the finish is significantly more durable than an oiled wooden worktop. If for example you split some red wine, even if it was left for an amount of time, it would easily wipe clean from a lacquered surface. Whereas with the oiled surface, it would likely damage it. The same goes for grease which is the biggest culprit of stained wooden worktops - things like meat juices as you mention above, will absorb into an oiled worktop. As with any worktop, even granite, placing hot pans or ovenware directly onto the surface of the worktop will cause some level of damage, typically leaving a scorch mark. Laquered oak worktops can withstand things like cups and mugs of hot drinks where the heat is raised slightly from the surface. Lastly, we use specialist lacquer for our worktops which give a beautiful sheen, but not a shine. So often you see wooden worktops ruined with a shiny uneven lacquer. Ours are applied in layers and cut back to ensure a even, smooth finish. If you need any further advice feel free to give us a call.

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.

Concrete is beautiful but can stain. Have you checked out Neolith - Beton? Or caeserstone's new worktops? http://www.caesarstone.co.uk/catalogue/metropolitan/4033-rugged-concrete/

Thank you everyone for your comments so far, some really good ideas! I'm definitely feeling the tuxedo trend at the moment (and colourhappy's picture about looks like it might go with the counters) but would the Range then look out of place? Unfortunately, because of the temperature of the room, we've had to put a rug on the floor just to give us a little softness underfoot - so it doesn't really feature in our scheme plan. love all your mock ups celerygirl, really helpful! I really like all the variations on green, but the husband isn't so keen, but I'll show him all the others to see if that sparks anything. All the doors have weird latches on instead of handles, so next it'll be deciding on what to replace them with! thanks all
