Kitchen design: Linear vs Round, which do you prefer?
Comments (0)Our Avant Garde range has a look inspired by today’s minimalism, the result achieved is yet another Stoneham classic. Linear white units give a modern look while the round units in warmer tones give a traditional twist. Which style do your prefer?...See MoreWhat inspires you in your work? How do you strike a work/life balance?
Comments (4)Hi Louise, this is a really interesting discussion, thank you for sharing and looks like it was a great feature! Me personally, I think the secret of my success is being passionate and loving what I do. Then everything else follows naturally! To achieve a work/life balance I have to be quite strict with myself, and recognise I need time to relax to be at my best. I am currently really inspired by the Scandinavian lifestyle - my boyfriend is Danish and I am trying to learn more about 'Hygge'. It's all about being comfortable, getting cosy and appreciating the little things such as a hot cup of coffee and lighting candles. That being said, with Summer approaching I'm excited to start spending more time outdoors - pretty sunsets always inspire me and make me feel good!...See MoreKitchen design missing something.... looking for advice/inspiration!
Comments (36)We chose to put our sink in our island as it was the best place for it. Our island is very long so it can accommodate the sink on one end with a clear space on the other end for seating - I am personally very against having a hob in the island as it will send splatters of hot oil etc. across the island and people (kids) sitting there. I also think the current trend for open shelves is odd - I always think they just end up looking cluttered (beyond the perfected curated pages of houzz), and everything will get dusty and oily if near the hob. One thing that we did in our kitchen was include a defined tiled area around the island - I love it and everyone comments on it. It may help add that little bit of extra in your design. (please ignore 1) our bar stools - we still need to get 2 more! and 2) the hole on the left where our broken wine fridge is waiting to be replaced!)...See MoreWhich service do you prefer the most?
Comments (0)Hey all, So I was looking for any homeowners out there in the UK who are design inspired to tell me which Interior Design services do you all prefer the most? It's so I can get a better picture of what clients prefer the most for me to work on what I could potentially do more on in future! Feel free to follow my Instagram page if you are someone who is design inspired for design tips, trends, up to date projects or just to browse through the work I do! instagram.com/kvm.interiors Official Website: www.kvminteriors.co.uk...See More

10 years agolast modified: 10 years agoLet's talk about Italy for a second or two :) Tuscany is often mentioned by designers and our minds stay focused on just that , vineyards, olive oil, open country and hills when in fact there is much more to see in each region of Italy , age has a lot to do with it too , from the old world charm to modern , its all about personality , affordability , weather and location . if I think of Provence my mind wonders off in a lavender field where the fragrance of the lavender fills the air on a breezy sunny morning , me sipping a cafe au lait and eating a brioche by an open window , inhaling the aroma of all , but this is in the country side and not too far from it there is a world of rushing about that is very cosmopolitan ,so going back into the decor that I would choose I say that a little touch from each country would do just fine with me .
