The rest of the room looks more period and this wardrobe is very modern...... You could take off one of the robe doors and get a dividing upright panel put in and build in some drawers and open shelving for toys etc. on the front doors you could attach a moulding similar to that on the ceiling and with the correct type of paint you could paint the wardrobe to match the wall colour. I would probably change the door hardware to black to match in with the bedroom door. You could also get some funky wallpaper and paper the back panel behind the open shelves. That way you can change the look quite easily as your son grows quite easily.

The main difference between the two choices operationally are: Push catches on handle-less doors and drawers require pushing to open and pushing to close, whilst cupboards with handles (with soft close mechanism), you pull to open and nudge to close and they retract automatically. Push catches win the appearance prize, whilst I think handles with soft close on drawers and doors win the operational prize as they are a little easier to use. A few issues on both sides: Handles are better to grip on big/heavy drawers and doors than knobs. Don't choose handles that have a shaft set in than allows you to catch aprons or clothes on them. A push catch is particularly great for a bin drawer giving you two hands free to carry and dump the rubbish, however push catch drawers often inadvertently open when you lean against them such as near the sink. You also need to push it closed and you may have dirty hands leaving marks on the front of the door. Push catches on drawers need to be pushed in from the middle. People often say their push catches are faulty. It's because they have pushed the drawer in from one side. This causes one of the spring mechanisms (one on each side in the runner) to become disengaged. It is easy to fix by taking out the drawer and sliding in again. For overall appearance, the trend is to have handle-less doors on modern minimalist kitchens. Whatever you choose, don't get little knobs or grips like the one in the pic you posted. These are OK for less trafficked areas, but you will find them very annoyingly difficult to use in a kitchen!

Bump.

The tile floor will always be the elephant in the room so consider if it is realistic to change. If you must keep the tiles here are some other fixes that will improve the space. 1. Look through Houzz and make a scrapbook of what you like - You need to determine the style of the kitchen -if you are to keep the doors you could head towards a hamptons style. Consider how the adjoining spaces are decorated as any changes may need adjustments elsewhere. I would cost out each element of the job and decide if you can do it all - possibly over time, as when you do one thing it makes others look shabby and the decisions you make for one aspect would have been different with an overall plan. 1. Remove the pelmet in the kitchen. 2. Paint the cupboards - possible going to a darker colour on the bottom and a lighter on the top. A dark charcoal could work and a grey toned white for the top cupboards. There are some nice Caesarstone options that could pick up these tones with a marble look. 3. The handles need to be heavier as they are trying to be contemporary when the cupboard profile is more traditional 4. You need to replace the bench top- this is your biggest problem as it is totally dated. 5. Your pantry doors ? are different and need to have the same handles. 6. Could go with white glass subways with a soft grey toned grout. If you change the cupboard profile - a squared off shaker style would work- remember that many of the gloss white kitchen s being built these days will soon be dated - so depending on the age of the house - stay traditional. good luck.
