kitchen floor advice please!
The boards down now are running in opposite directions and are not worth saving.
I like the idea of stone flooring but worry about it being cold and have also thought about parquet as it might not look as odd? What direction would you position wood flooring? Any ideas of suggestions would be hugely appreciated!! X

Kitchen cabinet advice required! Please help!
Comments (31)If you've got the time and the inclination (and budgets are tight) I reckon it's worth giving the paint a go to see how it looks. Lots of the kitchens we're doing for clients now are ones with painted finishes and although (as mentioned above) this isn't the most classic style/a bit old fashioned it will look completely different painted. New handles... save up for the kitchen you really want!...See MoreAdvice needed on flooring please

Comments (3)Hello Karen, WOW what a fantastic project and this open plan space looks incredible. I feel the positioning of the living area and dining area works well and makes complete sense from what you have said about the views etc. My concern is the kitchen as I feel the current position/layout is a bit of an obstruction and to me the space does not flow efficiently and effectively. I would switch the island around so it sits the opposite way and then you could potentially have your hob on the island which will sit in front of the tall units where your ovens and fridge will be. This way the kitchen layout will work a lot better. I have attached a quick sketch below so you can see what I mean. Also this way it will give you more room around your dining table meaning the whole space will flow a lot better. You have asked quite a few questions here so I would be more than happy to discuss all of this through an online video design consultation. I provide a personalised design service by working closely with my clients to create a space that reflects their personalities and way of living. I would love to talk in more detail with you about this exciting project, so please do get in touch and we can look at ways to see how I can help to create your dream space.

Comments (9)Congratulations on your new house! I would consider knocking down the dining room wall completely, creating a new wall and door entrance from the hallway into this space. I would then move your lounge wall and bring this down to creat a larger space in that area. This corner could then be a snug area for your children, while still giving you a good size lounge and an open plan kitchen/dining space. Would you need to speak with a structural engineer about moving the walls - what ever layout you decide to go with, it is best to chat it through with one. Good luck!...See More

PRO7 years agolast modified: 7 years agoHi there, Engineered flooring is a good choice too. We have just supplied engineered olive ash to our client for a new kitchen extension. Good quality Engineered flooring is particularly durable and easily maintained.
We have a range of engineered flooring - visit our website for more information regarding engineered flooring. There is also a wealth of information on the portfolio and blog sections of our website https://www.suttontimber.co.uk/products/flooring/engineered/
PRO7 years agoHi,
We agree that parquet flooring is a nice idea to help create flow throughout the space. It's also very much on trend, and timelessly stylish too! We'd recommend laying the pattern direction along the length of the hallway and then continuing this direction into the other rooms. The hallway is, after all, where first impressions are made so we'd suggest getting it just how you like it in this room first of all. The second and third mages from Man About the House show the flow well.
Alternatively, you could go for parquet in your hallway and planks in your kitchen, in the same colour of wood - the colour flows but this mixes up the pattern a little and gives you the chance to choose your preferred direction in each room.
Here's some colour inspiration too:
