Thank you ! I'm actually pretty happy with everything and wouldn't change a thing.... Only thing I will say is I wasted a lot of time at the start with the wrong kitchen designer. I asked them to help me with the layout and to order the cabinets through them. The lady said I couldn't have tall cabinets to the ceiling (which I could and did) she also told me I couldn't have Belfast sink with quartz (which I could). So stay firm with things you want and don't let the "pros" try and change your mind..... Good luck don't forget to take good before pics to !

Are you saying the glass splashback is the wrong size because it doesn’t go all the way up to the extractor fan? If so I’d guess that they’ve installed a standard size as opposed to a purpose made size. If so l would just take that one down and get a taller one made. You could always have the splashback all the way across the wall. l don’t think it needs tiles too. You could add a tint of colour with the emulsion,

Hi Adrian, thanks for the details - love the Caraz! Absolutely on trend colour, and a nice calm, sophisticated palette. Always amazes me just how much influence ambient light has, as the pictures show both to be even warmer in reality. With that info, I think I'd still be opting for white/off-white close to your worktop colour - on, if suitable, using the worktop material as a splashback, but you'd need to check with the manufacturer on suitability close to gas flame. Not all would be permissible. An alternative would be to go with whatever you have picked as flooring tile, if available in large enough size, then cut & edge to suit. Now that large format tiles are becoming so popular, we're finding clients opting for this more frequently, to add a bit more texture compared to flat, plain glass.

Only my opinion of course but on my screen the backsplash looks grey with a tiny line of brown and the floor tile looks yellowy and l’m not too keen on the combo. Add to that your options for the laminate are ‘mushroom’ colours and I just don’t think either of them go. Your inspo photo strikes me as being ‘top heavy’ with the darker cupboards on the top. I’d still like to see some grey laminate samples next to your tiles.
