New build - here goes. Kitchen help first up
Comments (27)Do you see what I mean about my imagination my skills. My drawing look oh so like yours (not). I really love your idea of the island bench. Connie I've had Others warn me off a sink on the island, but to be honest I don't mind if there is a dish in the sink (not dumped everywhere - I'm a stickler) the house is to be lived in I guess. With the suggestion of the border that mldesign gave I think the problem is solved. Still leaves me with two metres give or take for plating up etc. I did consider the sink on the other wall but just didn't feel the flow. As my pantry door and the window wall are are right angles - ie not stepped behind I was still thinking I would have a tall cupboard as per my sophisticated drawing above for small appliances and keep coffee cups etc in there. In saying that I was thinking I might swap the fridge from left to the right so the tal cupboards, pantry door and second tall cupboard are all grouped. Love your idea re the mirrored kickers. A big thank you for taking the time to draw these up. I will most definitely be using most of your ideas!...See MoreFlooring dilemma in a new build beach front house?

Comments (21)Not sure how it comes up in vinyl planks but i chose spotted gum ( Quickstep Readyflor) and am thrilled with the look. The large range of colours through the floors means it suits a range of timbers and furnishing colours. Good luck with your choosing...See MoreHandle dilemma - new build kitchen
Comments (6)Hi Kate, Lip pulls are quite small to grab. I agree with Paul's comments and that the finger marks, drips, food splashes, etc are going to happen anyway no matter what type of handle you have, especially on underbench doors/drawers. I had the same concern about the look of too many handles, and opted for a concealed fingerpull (or you could go for a concealed push mechanism) on overhead cupboards & handles on the under bench ones as in the photo below. I went for the long handles as they are easy to grab & open. It's nice to have some hardware as it's like an 'accessory' for your kitchen - gives a bit of 'bling' or contrast whether you go for traditional polished chrome, black, rose gold, etc. Best of luck for your renovation...See Morewuff
