Hi Hannah! Wow I love the kitchen! I wish I had seen this earlier so I could suggest but I love the grey tile, it looks like a successful choice! You could add a marble cheese board to the island. The grey streaky tones In the board will probably tie in everything else. You could then put a terrarium on top of the marble board!

Hi ysteb1 I found a tile that looks like a light beach style hardwood from National Tiles. They are long (1200mm) and narrow but I think the look will be nice. They are suitable for a bathroom so going to try them out.

Hi everyone, I've finally gotten around to creating a "Before and After" post which includes my kitchen and the remainder of the house. Pop on over if you'd like a look! We are very happy with the finished project. Thanks, Louise

The rangehood looks rather disjointed from the whole look - did it come with a flue extension that could go up to the ceiling? I don't know if it's because it doesn't have top cupboards near it as well that adds to the problem, so if you tiled up to the rangehood and put the floating shelves just above the tiles like in the pictures in the last post, it might help to visually join everything together.
