This is where the kitchen is going to be. Where my husband is will be counter top at that height. with a big wide counter top to sit under. on the back wall double door fridge a metre gap. 2 wall ovens then a sliding door where the ladder is. A scullery. Behind my husband to the side of him a sink the cooker then space. Where the big flat plank is on the ground (ish) will be the movable island. you can see a taster of the stone wall which will be on both sides of the entrance hallway, the flooring will look very similar to this http://carpetdiscounters.co.nz/product.aspx?product_id=441 . You may note the steel next to my husband on that side. it also needs to be treated. Thank you very much

The all black kitchen looks scary as. Maybe because there's no lightness in there at all.

Can't seem to get greasy marks off a stainless steel range hood

Looking for a balustrade design that affect the view in a minimal way. Not interested in glass. But horizontally fixed stainless steel wire. Ultra.tech is the brand.
