kitchen ceiling height dilemma
We are in the middle of our project and would appreciate an opinion on our open plan space. We have some interconnecting steels concealed within our ceiling and had originally planned to box down over our peninsula and top of kitchen cabinets however now seeing this we wonder if we should drop the whole ceiling of the kitchen area. We think this would look better however the caveat is the ceiling would be reduced to 223cm from 245cm in the rest of the space. Would this feel too low?

Comments (8)Thanks Ellie! We just started living in it again last weekend so I’m still figuring out where everything goes... outer units are soft grey, and island is pale navy, from Burbidge. I’ll be honest, the island could have taken the stronger shade of old navy, but we are delighted with it. Here’s a night-time pic with a bit of teething mess... it’s panoramic so you can see the whole thing from left to right. Good luck!...See MoreKitchen units, ceiling height 2.8m, how high do you take units up to?
Comments (5)Tall units up to the ceiling can look very nice, although would function as displays mostly. Honestly standard height kitchen wall units wouldn't concern me, they might accentuate the height which is not a bad thing at all. Alternatively if you have enough storage in the base units why not skip wall units altogether? Open shelves or even nothing, just a stunning splashback...See MoreTall kitchen units of different heights on one run, sloping ceiling?
Comments (2)In addition to your other post (https://www.houzz.co.uk/discussions/5762468/built-in-oven-and-hob-type-recommendations-also-island-length-for-hon#24431315) here's my idea. Ignore the roofline as much as possible. Place the boiler in a cabinet with a height that ends where the upper cabinets start. Tall cabinets with fridge freezer and oven are against the other wall, together with a 'coffee niche'. Cabinet with washing machine the same height as the boilet cabinet, assuming you don't have a dryer....See More

What I would suggest is take the 2nd ceiling option on the vote , but add some more ceiling boxing to each side to create a coffered ceiling with hidden LED lighting strips
