Ideas for track lights in new pitched roof kitchen.
Comments (2)Here are a few different ways to have track lighting in kitchens with vaulted ceilings: I especially like the ones that mount the tracks to the beams, like "Magnolia contemporary kitchen" and "Green remodel," but as you see, there are many different ideas. Hope this helps!...See Morewhich roof is best for skylight?
Comments (1)Hi Rita, it depends on what type of skylight you want to go with. A velux or Keylite requires a minimum 15 degrees pitch wheras a coxdome or rooflight will work best on a flat roof. With a Velux you can add manual or motorised blind sto help with shading and heat control which is a big advantage. Hope This Helps.....See MoreExtractor in meat free house?
Comments (7)Hi Ed I was struck by the similarity with our new kitchen layout. We recently renovated and I absolutely did not want either an overhead extractor (because I wanted to raise the ceiling), but also did not want to cut expensive quartz for a pop-up extractor which all seem to give trouble eventually and basically don't work! The solution was a German-made Bora induction hob with the downdraft in the middle of the hob. I have to say that it was the best investment we made! Ours could not be ducted outside (which is always the best option) without losing too much efficiency so we went for a filtration system. It works even better than I thought removing all smells and grease! It was really well worth the money. ...and no ugly hood blocking the view out! Watch the videos on the website - it actually does work exactly like that! They also do different options where you have gas on one side and induction hob on the other with the extractor in a panel between the two. Definitely an investment! You really do need extraction though as Fiona said. Strong cooking smells will will be absorbed into your furniture and soft furnishings in an open plan area. The best of luck with your project. I hope you love the end result as much as we love ours....See MoreRear south facing extension design dilemma
Comments (0)We are adding a rear single story extension to our semi detached 3 bed house, the rear of the house is south facing so lots of natural light, our current design is for a pitched roof with Velux in the roof and triangular windows on the back wall. Has anyone encountered blinding shafts of light through these upper windows? At the moment we notice in autumn / winter / early spring when the sun is lower we have to put the blinds down at the back of the house. The blinds for triangular windows I find ugly and dust magnets, but our architect thinks I am mad to remove them from the plans Many thanks for all advice...See More
