We had to meet the guys on site today for the measurement of the blinds so took some shots. The kitchen cupboards are in. The sink is at the stonemasons for them to get the measurements exact to fit into the stone tops. And tiling is next. That will be it for this week. We need to move the island a little closer to the sink by the window as it is a really large gap so will see if we can do so. You may not be able to see from the pics but the front of the island pointing away from the kitchen has no handles - the doors are push release because I thought handles would clutter the look. Our stone tops will be white. One issue is the kitchen window which you can see looks onto a fence unfortunately. I know it looks odd at the moment, but that fence will be stained dark and we will be running stainless steel wire along it with a flowering creeper to give lots of colour through the window and additionally are running a row of water solenoids on the outside of the window to turn it into a water feature so that as the water runs down the width of the window it will create a kaleidoscope of moving green and colours from the creeper. Again another chance we are taking and it could look kitsch, but given the space restriction, there were few alternatives especially given that we want to grab as much light as we can. Also not visible are the four integrated LED light sets that are recessed into the cupboards. They are wafer thin and don't protrude into the cupboards. I am debating putting dark blue LED sets in them to create a warmth to the lighting, but again will have to see about the fine line between striking and kitsch! Cheers for now!
