Oak kitchen with a light stone worktop

Kitchens

A kitchen to linger in.

Oak, daylight and a working kitchen with room for company.

What to consider · A kitchen to linger in.
  • Room to move

    Check the space left when drawers and appliances are open. A seating area also needs enough room to get in and out comfortably.

  • Everyday storage

    Think about where crockery, small appliances and food will go before deciding on cabinet sizes.

  • Light where you work

    Daylight changes throughout the day. Plan task lighting where you prepare breakfast or cook in the evening.

Kitchens

Details you use every day.

Sink, tap and worktop: three choices worth considering together.

What to consider · Details you use every day.
  • A sink that suits your routines

    Its size and position should suit what you wash and leave enough clear worktop space beside it.

  • Edges that are easy to care for

    Ask how the worktop will meet the wall, how its edges will be finished and how the sink will be sealed.

  • Check before ordering

    Confirm cabinet dimensions, tap fittings and plumbing connections before ordering the worktop and specifying its cut-outs.

Natural stone bathroom with a walk-in shower

Bathrooms

A shower with room to breathe.

Light tones and an open layout for a more comfortable start to the day.

What to consider · A shower with room to breathe.
  • Getting into the shower

    Consider the available space and how you enter. Whether a level-access shower is possible depends on the property and its drainage.

  • What lies beneath

    Before choosing finishes, the underlying surface, waterproofing and drainage need to be assessed.

  • Water and everyday care

    Compare the cleaning needs of screens, grout and taps. A beautiful finish should also suit the care you want to give it.

Bathroom with olive green tiles, a mirror and oak vanity

Bathrooms

A touch of olive. Plenty of warmth.

Coloured tiles and wood bring quiet character to a bathroom.

What to consider · A touch of olive. Plenty of warmth.
  • Colour in your own light

    Look at a sample under the bathroom’s actual lighting. A tile’s colour and sheen can look very different from a photograph.

  • The mirror and its lighting

    Consider where you need a clear view and where softer light would work. Plan these positions alongside the vanity unit.

  • Storage without clutter

    Make room for the things you use every day. Check that drawers can open freely and that the cabinet material is suitable for a bathroom.

Warm living room opening onto a kitchen

Living rooms

More room to be together.

A living room and kitchen connected by light and a shared palette of materials.

What to consider · More room to be together.
  • Check before opening up

    If you want to connect rooms, start by checking which changes are feasible. Some walls and building elements need to stay in place.

  • Space between the furniture

    Place the sofa, table and walkways on the floor plan. How spacious a room feels also depends on what goes into it.

  • Different uses, different needs

    Cooking, talking and relaxing call for different conditions in a shared space. Consider lighting, extraction and noise from the start.

Herringbone parquet flooring in natural sunlight

Living rooms

Let the wood set the rhythm.

Herringbone flooring adds texture and a sense of connection between rooms.

What to consider · Let the wood set the rhythm.
  • Pattern and scale

    Compare board size, direction and tone with the room’s dimensions. A small sample does not always show the effect across a whole floor.

  • The base and floor levels

    Check the existing surface and where the floor will meet doors and other materials before choosing how it will be fitted.

  • Look beyond the finish

    Wood and laminate can look similar in a photograph. Compare the specific product, intended use and its cleaning and care instructions.
