  • Hob/extractor would look better in that position. >>> only way to do this was A have it off centre ( original plan ) or have it with pull out larders either side which I really really don't like.

    Where's your fridge freezer gone? Also is your extractor ok being on an internal wall?
    Definitely looks better though.
    Also disagree with sink being the wrong way, when you have a dishwasher its handy to have the drainer over it, then you stack dirty stuff on it and then its easier to fill it.
  • fridge freezer is now integrated and in one side of the larder

    its not going to be vented out but filters ( in both plans it was placed on internal walls)

    my sink is the same way currently and i have dishwasher so don't feel it would be of benefit to change it

    It does look better, certainly.

    Personal preference would be to integrate as many appliances as possible as it's a small kitchen and the units are broken up quite heavily at present. I guess that depends on whether you are buying new appliances. The freestanding tumble dryer could be hidden behind a door with a bit of jiggery pokery and an extra deep worktop, leaving just the WM and DW on show.

    I prefer horizontal appearing wall units and I'd reduce the number a little for a bit more of a spacious feel, or have some glass fronted ones, but there's still an improvement. Note that they've used glass doors and a reflective floor in the rendering to increase the idea of light.

  • thanks all


    I am having one glass door ( nearest to cooker ) haven't decided on floor yet - would laminate tile in black be too dark for this size of kitchen

    If a door could be made to fit tumble drier that would be great as I really don't use it often, and it would be about £500 for a new washer drier then the cost of making the space where the tumble drier was into a cupboard.
