What Do You Want From Your New Kitchen?
We live in Salisbury, Wiltshire we have just done a complete refurbishment of our Kitchen, once we had the overall kitchen planning worked out we made sure we got the construction people in ahead of the other jobs to avoid getting the fresh units coated in grime to make a space through into the dining room and outside using Oak Beams to support the wall.
The kitchen layout was a basic U with a central island work station, with a pot rack Suspended from the ceiling. The Fitted Kitchen was in a really light oak with spotlights highlighting specific work zones. We placed extra under floor illumination through the kitchen and out into the outside and fitted External Lighting to illuminate the oak flooring or decking outside.
After having the Electrical contractors in Salisbury in, before fitting the kitchen to make sure all of the cabling was in position. And finally brought in the lovely pristine oak Cabinets. We finished of this mini project with some gorgeous Marca Corona Evolution tiles which looked good with the oak but gave the kitchen a really warm feel.
Take your time when choosing what you want from a kitchen. We purchased lots of papers and scoured the web to find images we connected with, we then whittled them down until we had something that would work in the area that we had allotted. Keep a notebook with images and ideas so that when the time comes to talk to people that can do the job for you, they will know the type of look you require.
