Thanks very much for all your feedback. Just to answer a few queries - the deck is directly outside the main room so the new doors open out onto it. The doors won't be French - they're just the only doors that the 3D planner I'm using had, they'll actually be large stacking doors. I've had another idea too which would be a lot more expensive but offers a completely different approach. This is quite rushed so doesn't show accurate layout of kitchen or anything like that, basically just provides an idea. Thoughts!?

RSVP to secure your place for My Dream Kitchen's Design Series event on June 28.Held at the PDL by Schneider Electric Showroom this will be an awesome event - don't miss out!

Hi Clo. Pinterest is very good, but it's more about photos and not actual information to read. Houzz is a good place, of course, but there are plenty of other good web sources. I have found this article on Google and it has a lot of information on Rustic design (it is also called Country style interior design). You can find there a good read on Provence style as well. I hope that helps.
