Help! Not sure about house room layout, especially location of kitchen
Comments (17)Thank you everyone for your comments. We live outside Christchurch, and the house was badly damaged in the quakes here. The post-quake rebuild process could safely be described as slightly chaotic, and the house company I am using are located some distance away (like on the North Island), which is why discussion with the architect has been - em - less than optimal. The architect threw something at me to get me out of my comfort zone I think and this is what's freaking me out! I think the windows on the east side are to come (no reason for them not being there), and probably a skylight in the kitchen roof. The section of land is narrow and steep, (this is a historic port town and with access from the south (where the view is); there is no parking other than on the street (south). Patricia - the laundry doesn't sit right with me either! Looks a bit like it's been glued on the side of the hosue. And it is too small as it is to store coats, shoes etc. This is the access to the back garden - thus the door (also means muddy boots can be dumped when we come in!). Entering a house through a living room is very common over here, especially where space is at a premium (small section, small house footprint)....See MoreKitchen layout — help please!!
Comments (1)With the pantry being located where it is, it provides a opportunity to make it inbuilt and continue your bench top along. This would then provide more bench space and would make sure you are using that wall to its full potential. However for space and flow and to make your kitchen more ascetically pleasing, we would suggest keeping the island bench and making the appliances integrated. This provides opportunity to make that far wall a feature wall, which can be as simple as a blackboard or pictures, to making it a colour feature (depending on you cabinetry) or even to make it high class you could create a wood paneling feature. I hope this helps, either way you can add bonus features to your kitchen, you can create more storage and bench space with changing the pantry, or you could make a design feature out of that wall. It is up to you and where you design flair may take you. Good luck! :) If you would like to see these designs with a quote please call us on 03 423 9067 and we can organise a free one for you. Below are some pictures - in built pantry vs. feature wall. (making where the appliances are a low bench top with below cabinets). (goes beautifully with a black and white colour palette)....See MoreSmall Kitchen Layout
Comments (0)Hello everyone =) Only In the early stages of redesigning kitchen (for the first time). I'm doing this on quite a tight budget, so will not be moving plumbing around. Below are the first set of drawings that have received - to which have made a few modifications to and you can see my notes are written all over it. Drawing is pretty close to scale, and have already extended bench on the left to make room for a breakfast bar- so this can't go out any further. I feel that I do have at least 1 or 2 areas of wasted space (see blue note on 2nd image), and am hoping for any ideas/solutions what i could do for this corner, or any other suggestions for that matter would be fantastic. Thank you! FYI i have asked and there is not enough room for a 'lazy susan' corner cupboard....See MoreKitchen/scullery/laundry layout help please!
Comments (0)so we are renovating the kitchen/laundry area and need some advice about the layout. It’s quite a large space, and I’ve leant towards the current layout and adding a window to the side wall where that cupboard is. But I love the idea of a sink at the window, and also think the sloping ceiling would look better with the sink on that wall. Removing ranch slider. measurements for that wall into laundry (behind fridge) are 6200 long, 1500 wide. Current opening is 800 and the kitchen is 4350 Along the back wall. Any recommendations for layout?...See MoreMahmood Al_Turani
