Need help for my Kitchen Hamptons country Style

Comments (2)Well done on your bathroom floor tiles. If your after the 'Hampton' look then you need to go with white cabinetry with marble tops. White will open up your kitchen area. If you decide to put in an island bench then you could go for a navy or black under bench cabinetry for a little contrast but white will never outdate. Good luck!!...See MoreNeed help to change my dark kitchen cabinets....
Comments (10)Just DO it ! You'll need to undercoat to make the paint cover, so once you have done them in white undercoat, you'll wonder why you hesitated.......they'll look brilliant. You could do them one unit at a time, until it looks right but you'll probably find you want to do them all white. Your suggested colour Antique White USA will look awesome and I too would suggest new door handles - it's surprising what just that change can do for a kitchen. The pendant lights would certainly make an inexpensive change to the whole area - I did it recently when I put in a secondhand kitchen and am super-pleased with the end result considering the awful lime green & mustard monstrosity I started with LOL....See MoreNEED HELP WITH MY KITCHEN PLAN
Comments (29)Hello, Firstly, congratulations on building your new home. It is a very exciting, but stressful time as I am sure you know. In regards to your plan(s) there are a few things that you may want to consider, particularly as you have said you are designing for wheelchair access. All access ways need to be a minimum of 1000mm clear and doorways 900mm. The ensuite bathroom appears to be too narrow for a disabled accessible bathroom. If you have engaged an architect/ building designer ask them to check it in regards to AS1428.1 and the BCA/NCC. You will also need to include grab-rails and specialised toilets if you truly wish to make it accessible. If you wish to move the ensuite/powder room for privacy issues, you may consider placing them between the study and the guest bedroom. This will mean the bedroom is used as a buffer. In a residential kitchen, it is common to design the kitchen based off the "triangle principle"; that is, the refrigerator, oven and sink form the apexes of the triangle. The closer they are together the more efficiently the kitchen will work. Try to avoid any obtuse angles in the triangle too. Whilst I know in a commercial kitchen it is common to have the refrigerator separate to the food preparation area, it may be easier for the household as a whole if the refrigerator is moved to where it can be accessible at all times, but not in the way or block access ways. If you decide to keep the refrigerator in the butler's pantry (and this is totally fine and your decision to make) I would consider changing its location so as to maximise shelf/bench space and ease of access as you have a dead space next to the refrigerator at the moment. Also, do you really need doors on the shelving within the butler's pantry? All the best with designing and building....See Moremldesign0401
