odd shaped kitchen
I’ve just purchased this home and so excited to put my stamp on it -but a little overwhelmed by this kitchen. Firstly, the whole room itself needs to work hard as it’s the only living space, so it needs to be a kitchen, dining, lounge. Then the layout of this kitchen feels really disjointed and only really allows you to put the table in the middle, which would get in the way.
Finally, the boiler is in the middle of the strip of shelves on the right - totally in the way. Does it cost a lot to move a boiler?
I love some advice and inspiration if possible!

Which kitchen layout - U with island or J?
Comments (9)Hi would be good to see the whole floor plan to judge properly. But first impressions would be that it looks like you want a modern handleless design and therefore the J shape kitchen is too complicated for the design concept and the U shape with the island I would say the island is too small. A more simple L shape and larger island I think would work better. CK...See MoreTo put hob on kitchen island or not to put hob on kitchen island?
Comments (28)Hi amfork, I went ahead & put the hob on my island & am delighted I did. I find it really is so much nicer looking out at the kids/my husband & being able to chat to them while I prepare meals as opposed to facing the wall with my back turned on everyone. I put a 4 ring induction hob on the island & put a 5 ring gas hob on counter facing wall. I did this as I have a large extended family & we frequently have get togethers. It’s great for catering for big events. However, I use the 4 ring induction hob on a daily basis. Hope this helps! Best of luck with your project, Claire...See MoreNew kitchen.. how to use a very odd space
Comments (1)To me it's a toss between storage and work surface. My inclination would be to use it to shelve out, but it's not wide enough to step into and have shelves. If you lose a press to allow for this are really only gaining the top shelves. You would also have to move your sink. Btw I would swop out your DW and WM anyhow as having the dw beside the sink for rinsing is a must!...See MoreSofa shape & size in snug area
Comments (0)I have a snug area off my kitchen/dining space for the Tv & seating. i am looking for the right sofa, looking at corner units to suit this space yet give us comfortable seating for 4. the width of the area is 2.9m & my length is open but less than 2.4m as it will impact on my dining area. Think the best option is longer sofa side to the right, against the glass & shorter side across the tv. I need to be able to access the seating & want to keep the height low & preferably not a sofa that goes to the floor so that it has the appearance of making the room spacious. another option is to fill the space for a sofa so you maximise the seating but I still need to access the sofa. Any advice please on what type to use modular, corner etc and type & size...See More

last monthThis is amazing! Thankyou! Are these designs loosely correct from a sizing perspective - so this could actually be possible? I appreciate it’s a small space. I hadn’t considered an l-shaped bench but that’s deffo happening!!! Storage is key!
I wonder, would it make sense and fit in to add an ‘L shape’ to the galley kitchen - perhaps to close of the kitchen to the lounge space? (Blue blob as example)

last monthHi Jo,
without having exact measurements, it's not 100% correct and I did do a very quick overlay of your house floor plans. So the measurements are probably s bit off, but there is room to tweak things in that case.
If I were creating an actual design I would ask for precise measurements of everything, and make sure every tiny detail is considered and all space optimised.
This was just a super quick thing I've done to help you visualise the idea.
But I have included measurements from it, for you to have a look, and I would be more than happy to help you further if you need. I currently offer 50% discount design rates for new Houzz clients and very flexible package options, to give you exactly what you want, and need.
