We are looking to extend & renovate our house. I would like to have Downstairs:-
Add a downstairs shower/cloakroom
Create an office
Extend my kitchen
Create a utility room
Create a chill out rm/ snug for my children
These are the three layouts. I have bifold doors at the back of the house (left hand side - when looking at pictures.)
Option 3 is my preference and if I make the sliding doors between living room (in picture) and kitchen a single entry then I can keep bifold doors at the back of the house!!
Then swap living to dining rm vice versa?

Bathroom layout advice please
Comments (4)Hello Iveta! The concept photo looks great, and we have created some very similarly inspired bathrooms here at Bathroom Eleven. If you are a London, Surrey or South-West local, perhaps we can be of assistance in turning your dream bathroom into a reality? We specialise in designing and creating luxury bathrooms. I agree that keeping the WC between the basins and the screen area is probably the better idea, so that there is a nice feature when you first walk in. I would be careful with engineered wood and perhaps consider looking at wood effect porcelain tiles - Porcelanosa have a great range. I hope we can help - drop us an email at info@bathroomeleven.co.uk if you would be interested in discussing a design appointment!

Comments (8)This space has so much potential, the architecture throughout is exceptional - it brings so many ideas to mind. I personally think that cooperating with some partition walls and bespoke installations will help towards achieving your goal. I am able to work with your existing drawings and improve on them, all done in AutoCAD to scale. Further down the line, I can create a 3D model for us to work with architecturally and interior design-wise. This will give you the advantage of seeing the space before investing in it - how the natural light reflects on the inside, how the materials appear, what shadows and reflections are created via the interior interventions. Please, drop me a message if you are interested. 😊...See MoreWhich open plan layout is best please?

Comments (24)Trina, you asked "The front windows measuring from the sill are 75cm above the ground. Is this sufficient height for lower kitchen units? " Depending on the kitchen manufacturer, you can get lower units which will sit the worktop at around 75cm, though this is too low to use as "prep space" or to have a hob. But it can be done. We have in the past done worktops that sit a little higher than window level, and have left a smaller "shelf" at window level next to the window into which pots or small troughs for kitchen herbs were put, which can be a useful way to tackle this challenge....See MoreA B
