yep, stunning. I been drawing something similar for a while and it's awesome to see your ab fab results after your OP. I got interested in some ikea solid timber benchtops, not nearly as nice as yours, and thought I'd combo them with black cabinets, white stone and white walls (just a "what if" design). so I totally love your kitchen. it's great how well the tiles look now compared to when you first posted, they really excite me! and the lightshades against the black wall. and what's that dining area I see? that smoked glass table top with timber trestles and black chairs and that black and white rug? where you get those?! I want to see more! congratulations, it's hard not to gush! big ups to Mldesign too.

I probably would steer away from black if you want to keep the country theme

Thanks you. I thought this was the case and so frustrated with it. We do have the space as it leads into a living room. It has made it a focal point of the whole house though.

We have recently done a shaker style kitchen makeover for a client, it‘s in the album „Kitchen Renovations“ and from what i understand they are mostly solid wood for the cabinets.
