Must congratulate Eliska on meeting the clients’ requirements laid out in the brief and giving a contemporary aesthetic to the whole space. Very well done.
The color combination is excellent because it expands the space.
Optimum use of walls as a storage space.
The relocation of the fridge and oven meets the functional layout requirements.
Points to reconsider:
? Location of the HOB: You may consider moving the Hob at least 610mm (or as per geometry/division of drawers/cabinets) away from the corner, for ease of movement for the user. This is necessary ergonomically. This shift has minor cost implications.
? Counter Top Material: Wood is beautiful, warm, eco-friendly but wood needs a lot of care, for a functional kitchen can be unsanitary if not maintained properly. So, consider the end-user and function, also look at non-toxic clear coatings for the wood countertop.
? Back Splash next to the dishwashing area: You may consider adding a backsplash around the washing area. If aesthetically you want to keep it minimal then look at waterproof coatings for that area.
All the best for the rest of your project.
