Hi Maureen

Sorry but you haven't given any real information to go on.

sounds like you need to speak to a kitchen designer and start the design process.

Hi Maureen,

Please give us a clue what you're after, so we can help. For instance, are you looking to reconfigure the space or perhaps redecorate?

Love how you've matched the fridge with the little steps. And the fridge stands out more now, too. Well done!

Hi Helen, The fridge position is ideal so I suggest you move the radiator to the other side of the door and turn the door so its opens back against the fridge. This will increase the feeling of space in the whole dining area. You won't regret the length of your breakfast bar so I wouldn't worry about the gap sizes, 1200 is an ideal but 1000 is more than sufficient. Could you turn the door into the utility so that it opens inwards and not into the kitchen area? It would eliminate having to manoeuvre round the door when open and reduce congestion in the kitchen especially with traffic flow past the end of the breakfast bar. Alternatively you could consider a pocket door which slides into the wall if there is enough space. Good luck!

Very difficult to see clearly, a lot of clutter in the way, if you are doing this job yourself then measure the area(s), look up up how to measure your garden advice online, measure your walls, measure what you will retain such as the shed. Get an A3 tracing paper book, sheets of A 3 white paper, eraser, pencils ruler etc. If the A3 white paper needs to be increased, tape 2 sheets together. Draw the plan to scale 1cm to the metre for example. Put in existing paths, steps services, north. Now you have a very basic plan. What kind of garden do you want? How would you divide it up to suit your needs. Do you a patio for table /chairs? Do you want to grow some veg/fruit in raised beds. Or do you want a lawn only with borders and shrubs, place your tracing paper over your plan and draw your desires on that, do as many tracings as you want, until you are satisfied with the results. Use coloured pencils. The walls need uniformity of colour, the shed could do with reprinting...start researching materials, gardening books, magazines, online for ideas that appeal to you and suit your plot. Do you have a budget in mind? If you are not engaging a landscape designer to do a complete plan for you then perhaps a consultation would be a good idea, once you have got the bones of what you want together. In the process of tackling your garden plan you will learn a lot and hopefully gain much satisfaction.

Hi Maureen. I'd suggest getting an idea of what you like to do in the kitchen.

i.e. Whether you love baking, cooking for big family social events or socialising over a glass or three etc etc. Then start thinking of the useful features you'd like to bear in mind - ie.. from above - would like a double oven with steam option, 5 hobs and plenty of prep space or a breakfast bar / island.

That starts the process and then you can start looking at layouts, finishes, worktop and backsplash materials etc.

As CK mentions - that's what a professional designer will run you through. Just see who's local to you and drop in / give them a call.

Good luck! ;-)
