Charles' ideas
Using borrowed item as an island base. Interesting shelves.
Stainless steel, blue and light wood worktop combo.
Open shelves, patterned tiles, blue units.
Blue cabinets go nicely with stainless steel splash back.
Basic white cabinets, but coloured tiles make it more vibrant.
Long low units against one tiled wall. Shelves. Simple island.
traditional, yet contemporary.
Combination of colours. Neither high-gloss or retro.
Big sliding glass doors - almost frameless! Also the kitchen is nice shade of blue and good wooden floor.
Blue units, natural wood, inside/outside space.
Simple cabinets with open shelving
Homely with lots of colour combinations. Low level kitchen units in different colours. Skylights (not UPVC though). Nice flow between different areas.
Picture window, dark wooden floor, low-level gallery kitchen. Kitchen table rather than island (space)
Amazing windows looking out onto well-lit garden.
Geometric koi pond close to glass windows.
Interesting roof - picture window looking onto koi pond!
Tearoom style extension with overhanging roof. Natural materials. Lots of small decks, pebbles, pots and colourful-leafed plants.
Terrace/patio continuing into a geometric-shape pond or water feature.
Classic chic - 1930's feel but still modern.
Contemporary eclectic living room.
Calm modern tones for front room.
Ultimate under-stair shoe storage!
Atmosphere.
Far from ideal but shows how a simple board can be dropped from the ceiling and used to cast ambient LED strip lighting as well as host other light fittings.
