Having looked through your idea book, I would say that 70 percent of the pictured have a similar style to them, broadly speaking. Warmer tones, some darker wood / walnut, many of them handleless. As a next step, I would go back to all the pictures and write down the elements that appeal to you, and be quite specific. If there is one picture that stands out to you as having the right overall balance you can use this as a template when planning your kitchen, even if for example it has shaker doors, but you might want handleless. You also need to consider how the kitchen will look against existing elements in the room, and things you might be planning for the living area. Then consider the practical elements, ie pros and cons of different doors, finishes, worksurfaces etc. Some of this will depend on your circumstances, do you cook a lot, want easy to clean etc? There's lots of articles on Houzz covering that kind of thing. Budget will also play a big part. For my part, I went with a handless German kitchen, with a matt finish with a quartz worktop. I cook a lot and have found this combination very easy to keep clean.

Most of those work together as the brass element is repeated. What flooring are you having in the kitchen (which looks great) as that could really add warmth? Ignore the first pic as that is £xxxxx but I thought the trumpet could be fun for the piano room although DH may hate it! The brass doesn’t match on this particular wall light but something like this would go and should be easy to find. I love the pearl drop light so thought I’d show it to you in case you like it. I really like the pendant in your first pic so have shown this one too, it’s reminiscent of 1930s Parisian jazz clubs. I assume the eichholtz one is actually chrome (as most tend to be!), do you want a similar brass version?

I have solid surface worktops. Mine are Mirostone Taj Mahal. i work with kitchens. I have read the reviews that I think you could be referring to and agree with them. If you Google the colour of my worktops they are similar to a Calacatta Marble. I have had mine installed for around 4 months and I am very careful when placing items on them and also cleaning them. Yesterday we had to resort to fabricating them again so out came the sander and the dust extraction machine. We firstly attempted the peninsular top. This was done 3 times to achieve the finish I wanted and we ended up doing a wet and dry sand which shouldn’t be necessary. Then we tackled the island, sink area and the other corner. I had a long discussion with my supplier over these worktops and have told them that I consider them to be sub standard because they are China imports and not up to the usual pre Covid standard. I have a customer who had a very dark colour. She complained about them, I passed her complaint on to the same supplier I had mine from and only last week got a full refund for them. It took 8 weeks of arguing to get the money back. Even the batches were not the same colour code and this was apparent with the island. We never take the film off until fabrication is complete so were unable to see this. Mirostone is to the best of my knowledge the same or very similar to Minerva in its make up. Avoid it. I’m lucky that we can refabricate ours, not that I want to be constantly doing that, but we can to bring it back to life. We have fitted several Pietra solid worktops and have had no problems whatsoever with them, so take a look at those. They are very slightly thicker 25mm from recollection. They have proved to be very hard wearing. Charlie is right with the cleaning side of thngs. So many people use chemicals but you shouldn’t. Stick to soapy water only. Look at Pietra It’s good stuff. Here’s my worktops. Love them but am annoyed at the fabrication side of things. It’s all due to the recipe of what’s in the tops.
