Hello 1LauraJane,

Thanks for your inquiry. The cabinetry was built to our design drawings by a cabinet shop in Brooklyn: S. Donadic Woodwork, Inc. The counter on the vanity is 32" above the floor and the space under the drawer above the stool is 27" above the floor. Best, Tom

Sadly I have to agree with the comments about the poor energy efficiency standards of new housing in the UK - they're criminally low in the first place and sometimes aren't even adhered to properly, which can make living in them expensive, miserable and unhealthy. Historically energy conservation hasn't been an issue as so much of our housing, particularly social/council housing, was built decades ago when energy was plentiful and cheap and hardlly anyone thought about the effect on the planet. On the other hand, the UK has a rich architectural heritage which comes in part from the mix of housing and thanks to the efforts of the conservation movements which arose from the threat of bombing in the C20th wars and then the possibly even worse vandalism of the 1960s town planners! Reading and Glasgow suffered terribly at the hands of the planners but happily now many - though far from all - historic buildings across the country are loved and protected. We're fortunate in the UK not to have a mindset of 'new is better' so bulldoze the old, but there's always a place for innovation and making old houses comfortable and efficient places to live in in the C21st. *gets off soap box*

ash4711 I agree, I grew up with a house full of Gplan teak furniture that my father bought from a complete Showhouse sale on one of his sites. I loved it then and still do, looking in so many design articles here and on other sites that style of teak furniture from the 20th century seems to come up most. Various members of my family still have most of that Showhouse furniture from the '70s.

Who makes kitchens that provide 9-12mm solid backs on cabinets?

Like I said, anything over 8mm is overkill. If you’ve had issues in the pay then the cabinets have not been fixed & installed well enough. Industry standard is 8mm for a reason. B&Q etc are cheaper because 1. They have the monopoly & 2. They come flat pack & 3. Theres Limited choice in colours & sizes. They also use cheaper materials Upgrading to MCF egged with other companies (such as DIY) is the what gives the extra quality. Note they are still 8mm backs. In fact, there’s a lot of info on the DIY kitchen website about carcasses

Another suggestion is Dulux Egyptian Cotton. I had it in my bedroom and it does have slight pink undertones so maybe worth getting a sample pot. It is quite similar to Skimming Stone. I suggest you paint your samples onto A4 cards and try them on different walls in the room stuck with some blue tack. I was advised to do this and it really helps. It works better than lots of paint samples on a wall which can be confusing. Purbeck Stone is a lovely taupe. This is Egyptian Cotton.
