Hello Caro, That is a spectacular kitchen and the second I have seen on Houzz that's similar.. The other was yellow but the owners ripped it out! I am very glad you're keeping yours.. The fridge is wonderful too... What would really make this stand out is if you could find a home for the pans... So the kitchen remains sleek... Could I suggest a warmer lighter granite for the worktop or perhaps a worktop that would compliment the look like Formica! ... I think black would be too harsh here.. Something with blue in would be good too so it compliments the tiles... OR keep what you have as it looks blue.... You could have blue as a theme for the flooring too... Are you changing the flooring?.. If so Sinclair Till is an excellent choice for linoleum.. http://www.sinclairtill.co.uk/range/3/3360 http://www.sinclairtill.co.uk/range/3/3828 For walls Cole and Son do some fantastic papers Geometric Grand restyled... They are a larger and bolder version of their former smaller collection in this range... For Bold... For Subtle.. For pendant lighting... For dining... something like this table and chairs would be ideal.. Also the fridge is lovely too.... For cocktails... An ice bucket and a few glasses! I think this is one such occasion where I can say.. "Don't just go to first base... Go all the way!" : ))

I love the colour by numbers kitchen! I think it works really well because there are strips of wood between each colour block, as well as the colour choices. It reminds me of school classrooms. Kitchens in adverts from the 1950s were often very garish, clashing with the flooring and walls, and with each other. Baby blue, yellow, mustard, red, white, salmon pink, olive green... all seem to appear. I would pick your favourite(s) and go with them - paint a few scraps of paper and stick them up, so you can imagine them in the light conditions and how they go with your other items. Your kitchen is lovely so far, I'm sure you'll make a good choice!

Hi Debbie, What a lovely big space! I'm not sure if this is helpful but we have recently undertaken a large renovation project and despite putting wooden floors throughout the downstairs our designer convinced me to go with a lighter tile for the kitchen / dining / living area and it was definitely the right thing for us (I didn't necessarily agree at the time as thought wood throughout would be best) Our room is North east facing and the walls are in F&B Ammonite just for a frame of reference. The units are clearly a very different colour to what you'll be having but hopefully it still gives you an idea. I know colours can be quite tricky in a darker room and I know our designer went to a lot of trouble picking and checking colours to ensure the impact of the light was right and we didn't make it dark The tiles are 60cm x random length seasoned Limestone, purposely with quite a rustic feel (which helps keep them looking clean as they're not shiny and have variable markings) Here are a few pics if it helps I am sure you have already considered this but have you checked the Elephants Breath in the room? I also loved that colour but when we put it in a slightly darker room it looked very lilac. I notice on the F&B website it also specifically mentioned west facing rooms and the lilac consideration. http://www.farrow-ball.com/elephant's-breath/colours/farrow-ball/fcp-product/100229 Hope it helps! Best wishes, Claire

If you are able to move the washing machine out of the kitchen, you could create a small seating area by the conservatory door. This could work as a breakfast bar without sacrificing worktop space. I would not go for a galley kitchen. The footprint, ignoring the corridor space between the two doors, is square. That lends itself to U or L shape. A galley kitchen will waste space and you'll end up with a big empty wall where the cooker currently is. I also think that an integrated oven with an induction hob would work much better. You could replace the corner cupboard under the window with a 900mm L shape unit, which would be much easier to access, even with standard shelves, but you can add a carrousel to avoid awkward corners. Another option you have is moving the fridge next to the oven. This will leave about 500mm to the right of the fridge for the electrics cupboard. In the space where the fridge was, I would put a tall 300mm deep larder. I have one in my kitchen and it's amazing how much you can get into it, plus everything is easy to access because it's not too deep. An 800mm wide unit (like this: https://www.kitchperfect.com/product/800mm-double-larder-unit-2150-high-300mm-deep-split-doors-smallest-door-to-top-total-height-2300-including-150-legs/) would probably work well. There would be space for the bin to the left of the cupboard. I also think you need more wall cupboards, both from a practical and aesthetic point of view. That single cupboard on the right makes the kitchen look unfinished and it would be more balanced with something else to the left, though I appreciate you won't want to block light from the window, so maybe a smaller cupboard or some shelves would work :⁠-⁠)
