4 The PLANS 1 3


1 Ample daylight Keeping the sink run free from wall units enables more of the light from the French doors to reach the kitchen. 2 Sink area A rounded end cabinet eases the transition from the dining area to the cooking zone. 3 Dining table Positioned in front of the French doors for maximum daylight, this can be moved to free up space or serve as additional workspace. 4 Smart storage A trio of drawers below the hob can house cooking utensils, spices, pans, and larger items of crockery.

THE VERDICT Daria says: “This design mostly met our vision – the overall eff ect looks pleasing and it’s within our budget. There were some really clever and detailed ideas, for example the composite quartz worktop with slight pattern markings and the exposed brick on both ends of the kitchen. I think the eff ect will create symmetry and draw the eye. However, due to the size of our existing dining table, we will not be able to add cupboards to the feature wall. “We also appreciated the advice of choosing a warm colour, as


we realised that white and grey can be quite cold colours. As much as we like a sleek look, the kitchen is a focal point of our home and should feel cosy and welcoming. However, we prefer incorporating the sandy colour on the fl oor through light wood-eff ect tiles.”
