I have a whole wall that I need to block off with some sort of door. I'm thinking that a bi-fold door would be awesome. However, my husband kind of wants a sliding door. I just think how cool it'd be to have a whole wall made up of a door that could easily be tucked away when needed. This would make outdoor barbecues a lot easier. It would sure save me from having to open the door every time. http://www.superiorwindows.com.au/content/Products/BifoldDoors.aspx 

I couldn't tick one or the other of the boxes – I think the choice has to be made contingent on so many variables. In fact we have painted timber, double-glazed bifolds (with a fabulous retractable pleated fly-screen) at the end of the dining room leading out onto a terrace and a painted timber, double-glazed slider (with a timber-framed sliding fly-screen) on the other side of the kitchen (but on the same axis) opening onto a raised timber deck. Each works really well in terms of function and aesthetics but they would not be interchangeable as the different locations determined which was more suitable – but they have been made by the same highly skilled window craftsman and have given us nothing but pleasure. And on a hot, steamy evening with both open we have the most wonderful cross ventilation.

I don't think you can go wrong with a large timber door. The colour should contrast with the granite nicely and will even help soften all the colder surfaces. Have you seen any doors you like? https://www.houzz.com.au/products/front-doors-prbr0-br~t_10816

If you paint all entry doors same colour as walls they tend to ‘disappear’ and won’t compete with the robe doors. Re the drawer set up fold some of your own & partner’s clothes the way you want them to fit in your new cabinetry and measure from there. A 9cm height could be a great underwear drawer, or if you have power to the back if it a charging station for phones & laptops. Make a careful inventory of everything that needs to fit and decide from there.
