I have a really small bathroom- tiny!
Comments (18)I wouldn't necessarily dismiss the idea of a wet room. I lived in a house with just a shower for over 10 years and had two babies while I was there - we worked it out. However I do appreciate it may make your house less desirable if you are planning on selling in the future. (although I will add when we sold ours 2 years ago the lack of a bath was not an issue). It sounds like you want to do some of the work yourself so perhaps get a plumber in and discuss what work you wish them to do and what you can tackle yourself. Same idea with the electrics. Agree with others to double check the dimensions of the bath you've found - most on-line retailers allow you to download the technical drawings of things like baths. Have you considered a sliding door? It may make the space more accessible. We've just put electric under floor heating in our wet room - with ours it's just designed to warm the floor to help dry it after use - rather than heat the room. We have a towel rail on the wall as well as the UFH....See MoreReally struggling with layout
Comments (7)I’d suggest that you swap the American FF for one or if you need the capacity, two integrated FF’s - as they are sleek, look like the rest of the furniture and most importantly don’t project more than 600mm like most USA ones do - this is a small space so has to work harder ! Use a smaller undermount sink, and drainer mats rather than grooves, use a four ring hob ( you need the worktop space ) with a single under oven and under combined micro and warming drawer ( or under single oven and under single size microwave ) and don’t bring the peninsula too far around that it restricts your entrance space. Add lots of tall wall cabinets - as most of the lower units will be taken up with appliances /corners and sink . So I hope you are tall and not petite - as this won’t work so easily for you if you are! This is really a one chef space - but helpers could stand at the outer side of the peninsula to chop etc - would help if you chose a longer, thinner dining table to ease the walkway traffic if you will regularly have helpers standing there. Alternatively elongate the tall run to include built in ovens and have drawers under hob and shorten peninsular or take out peninsula and have a pull out extra worktop at the end - this gives more space for an extra chef to work with you within the kitchen area. Which of these, as a starting point for design depends on the way you cook and how many you cook for etc . And your height etc etc etc So are you a dance/yoga teacher ? As assume that’s why you need lots of free floor space ?...See MoreCan you use an undermouny sink as an inset sink?
Comments (4)In short no you can’t or shouldn’t. Undermounted sinks aren’t only suitable for solid worktops such as granite, quartz, solid timber and solid surface. Laminate worktops are not waterproof and they will blow so you’ll end up ruining your worktop. Can’t see in detail from the image exactly what it is....See MoreWould really appreciate some help with kitchen design
Comments (4)Hi. The magnet design looks almost identical to what you have now apart from the sink being moved is that correct? Can the nib of wall on the left with the radiator on it be removed completely as this along with the massive fridge and breakfast bar is what is making the kitchen feel very separate from dining area. I would lose the massive fridge and get something integrated and full height like the current tall cupboard you have to left of garden door. If you can remove the bib then you can either extend the units out along the stove side to provide more cupboard space or you could put a built in banquette there for people to perch on and chat to you whilst you are cooking? It depends what you really need, more storage, more work surface or more options for seating? Personally I’m not sure the sink would work well shoved under the window I know it’s the fantasy but really how much time do you spend washing up and staring dreamily at the back garden? It looks a bit cramped to me. Try and imagine yourself in the space using it and how practical it would be. Assess exactly how many units you need to store your stuff and don’t have more cupboards for the sake of it. If you have a banquette you can have lift up seats for storing little used items which can be very useful. Anyway hope that’s some food for thought :)...See Morecbp3568
