built in same colour as walls or woodwork?

You certainly have the height to carry such a look but I wonder whether you would lose the definition in some of that beautiful cornice? I like ceilings painted the same colour as the walls. I considered one shade lighter (ie ammonite) to have a slight contrast. You could also paint the cornice white and the ceiling cornforth but I think that is a more traditional look. On balance my favourite would be the cornice and ceiling painted one shade lighter. What have you done in the rest of the house with the ceilings?

Verena and MATH - I wish I had some nice pics for you, but I really is just a shell, still. Bare walls, exposed cabling, etc. BUT, I can share a few of my kitchen sketches if of interest... Pic 1 is the plan that went out the window this past weekend as we decided on stacked ovens next to the fridge. Pic 2 uses a magic corner to make the most of the corner space where the pantry would have been. In this scenario, upon reflection, I'd put the pull-out pins between the magic corner and the sink so that the first two units you see have the same door type (is that OCD?) The issue with this one is that I lose my 'dish pantry' from that corner, and I really wanted to be able to come in and make a cup of tea and a sandwich without having to go further than the sink. I also want DH to be able to set the table without having to come into the working aisle to get the dishes and cutlery. Perhaps I'm overthinking it, but... Pic 3 reinstates the dish drawers in that corner (although the actual base corner is not used). After doing this drawing I decided I'd have a small set of drawers for cling film, foil and dish towels between the dish drawers and the sink (again for continuity of the fronts), and put the bins in first position on the island (shown in the last pic). I'm a bit gutted to have lost the pantry, but I'm really pleased with the stacked ovens. I'm trying to convince myself that I can split pantry items between the corner upper cabinets (bread, jams, tea, coffee, snacks), and the island (tins, pasta, grains, sauces, spices, etc - the stuff for actual cooking). What do you think? Will it work? We have an appointment with a kitchen designer on the 27th - exciting! Pic 3 is kind of

Funny you should say that ED; a friend and I just decided to do our compilation show again at Edinburgh next year. We did it for the first time in 2017. It's called Laugh begins at Forty and has five or six different comedians over 40 performing every day. I'd better get the house finished!
