Advice on Kitchen Sink Please
Comments (10)I've a friend with a Blanco sink that looks similar. The big issue is keeping it clean, because it's very hard to get the gunk out of those squared off corners. Personally, I'd go with something with rounded corners, even if they're only slightly rounded. We have an Oliveri Sonetto, which has modestly rounded corners (but is more expensive). http://www.harveynorman.com.au/kitchen-appliances/sinks-taps/oliveri-sonetto-undermount-sink.html That said, I don't think there's anything wrong with the quality of Blancos, it's the straight edge design that looks good in the magazines but is a pain to live with. You might have a look at Abey and some of the mid-range Clark sinks as well (our last house had a very serviceable Clark Monaco)....See MoreKitchen advice please
Comments (8)I do this for a living and love the old houses, the door is tops were it is... you can change the window and still make the sill sit at bench height. But I'd sit the window 200mm above bench height to give a more of a splash back feel, as if you use a sub tile for splash back there 100mm high so x 2 height will contrast well. I'd leave it and if it can fit just put the fridge next to the pantry door, all depends if you want to create a larger space? Then yes remove the pantry wall and use the space were you have the mini fridge , and of course if your going to live in it? Sometimes unless your doing this for a quick turn around actually puts a dent in the pride of the house as it is... Google and of course Houzz gives great options on what to do and what not, you'll be right but that's my input... Good luck!...See MoreKitchen re design advice needed please
Comments (49)thank you for your advise. I have put images of the outside of the house as that where the dining room is from there we will be bringing the decking out 3 metres which will create an out - indoor eating. this is the most finished room giving you an idea of the colour and house. all blue grey tones. sorry about stuff around but a reno house is hard to find spaces below is kitchen as is looking out to the dining through that open servery but we are taking most of that wall out to make an open space - its very small step down below into the dining through the left door way. below is the now dining. the table is very small and hard to pull chairs in and out of hence the indoor out door considerations. belwo is the outdoor looking in. from those doors we are putting a 3 metre decking i think. we have a lot of yard so its easy to do...See Morekitchen Advice - please help!
Comments (29)my suggestions include the new pantry but to avoid changing the kitchen window there's no wall or door between the kitchen and pantry and the dividing "walls" between pantry, kitchen and storage cabinets facing the dining area are built using kitchen cabinets back to back with shallow shelves in the pantry behind the stove and the walls are the same height as a standard doorway ...one thing to realise is that this enlarged kitchen/pantry will take up more of the family room and to understand how much you should create a temporary barrier (dining table?) about 1500 out from the present breakfast bar and from the outside wall across the room level with the back of the existing fridge wall leaving less space in the family room so you need to plan how the new family room will be furnished but despite being smaller the whole spec will feel more open and you will have much more counter space space and a generous island ... this photo shows how the partition cabinets create my separate pantry with cabinets on both sides of the dividing "wall" but no wall to the ceiling or door across to the outside wall...the position of your sink would be about the same place as my ovens with your kitchen window making your pantry bright and easy to work in...See MoreElissa Hunter
