Good design needs to suit the whole family, but that can be a challenge when you’re catering for 2 adults, 3 kids, 2 cats, 2 guinea pigs, a gold fish and a great dane the size of a pony. Hamish the dog likes nothing better than sleeping on the bed with Mum and Dad and hogging the sofa. Each Sunday the whole family love to spend time together in their tiny lounge room. But with space at a premium, can Shaynna come up with a pet friendly renovation before they all get busy with their other love – theatrical production?

Design ideas for a small contemporary l-shaped open plan kitchen with a built-in sink, flat-panel cabinets, white cabinets, laminate countertops, orange splashback, ceramic splashback, stainless steel appliances, light hardwood flooring, no island, beige floors and grey worktops.

Le rez-de-chaussée de la cuisine prend la forme d’un L. L’entrée donne d’abord sur la salle à manger et la cuisine, ensuite viennent l’escalier et le salon. Ce grand espace accueille donc plusieurs fonctions. Dans l’entrée, un grand placard miroité permet de ranger un maximum d’affaires. Un canapé d’appoint permet de se déchausser confortablement. Sur les étagères murales, plusieurs vides poches permettent de ranger les clés et autres petits bazars. Un papier-peint à motif hexagonal, une peinture « bleu cristallin », quelques coussins, une horloge murale et deux dame-jeanne viennent donner une identité à la pièce. Côté salle à manger, la table peut se déployer pour accueillir plus de convives. Le bahut permet de ranger la jolie vaisselle. Le tapis en pvc est facilement nettoyable et vient structurer l’espace.
