Open plan living area alcoves
Any interior enthusiasts have suggestions for me on what to do with my alcoves in open living/kitchen area... One idea attached is custom built units to match the adjacent kitchen in light grey ash. Ignore the large sofa in the way... That will be gone soon.

Comments (6)Hello Jeannette, what a lovely project! I've worked on a number of bungalows and they have their own unique challenges. Making the spaces work for our needs today, and for your own family needs have to be the priorities. I would suggest you appoint an interior designer before thinking in detail about the kitchen. An interior designer will find out how you want to use the space and come up with clever floor plan that is workable and beautiful. This is going to be a really important investment for you. I would love to help - I couldn't advise in any detail without seeing the property and of course, without meeting you. Very best wishes Yasmin....See MoreHelp?

Comments (1)The only real way to make it clear from the kitchen is to have it against the back wall at the foot of the stairs, but this may then make the bottom of the stairs look cluttered and it will then be difficult to put a coffee table there. If you are going to use a table I'd go for a clear glass one so that it looks invisible. I think the best place for the sofa is on the wall along the stairs, it seems the only logical place....See Moreadvice on open plan kitchen/dinner and small living area layout

5 years agoLove it, think it will look super. just make sure you replicate the mouldings at the top with your current coving
I think it would look better to have the alcove units the same colour as your wall, then have your feature wall the dark grey. crap
crappy photoshopping, but you get the idea.

5 years agoI think built in shelving would look lovely. Creates a cosy nook to chill out in front of the tv or with a book, so yes to pic number one! I like the other dark grey wall too - how about having the shelving in dark grey? Just a thought.
