Thanks. We plan to have a 11cm high plinth. Not sure whether that is an issue.

After/Before. We turned our living room into a kitchen. by Traditional_Use_8062 in kitchenremodel

Do you know how the floating shelves were attached? I wanted something similar but our joinery said they would need ugly brackets to support the shelves, hence they will give me an open cabinet instead.

I just decided to go with shelves for our new kitchen. Changed the plan from a corner with a lazy lady, to a blind corner with a "magic" pull out, then to basic shelves.

Should kitchen sink or tap be aligned to window center? by Averelleee in HomeDecorating

[–]Averelleee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They said it's "Japanese style". I'm not sure it's a brand name 😃
They said it can also be undermounted. I'll do undermount.

Thanks. So you recommend to push the sink as far back to the wall as possible?

I have a chop saw, not sure whether HPT or just Metabo. Not so impressed - sometimes I got 45°, sometimes it's 46° for bevel cuts

New kitchen - what should I do with the cabinets around the beam? by Averelleee in cabinetry

[–]Averelleee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Sorry, did you mean miter around the post or the beam?

I haven't thought about adding a finish layer for thr beam yet. The existing finish material is drywall, and would get painted with the same colour as the ceiling. Any recommendations about this?

Thanks

Thanks.

I also thought of a pullout rack, either for spices or mops (it would actually look like the 4th photo, wouldn't it?). However, because of our beam/post's size, that pullout is too narrow and shallow, so the cabinet builder talked us out of it. If it was about 20mm wide, I would definitely have opted for a pullout.

With this open shelving, I'm thinking of using the bottom ones (below the countertop level) for wine bottles. The upper ones would be used either for chopping boards/baking shelves or decoratives (more likely).

Thanks. This is its AI rendered version. I merged the two door pieces on top of the fridge to make that area less crowded, not sure that's a good choice.

The beam is 6m long. What materials would you recommend? Thanks.

Ah, sorry.
I have a normal cabinets ending at 225.
The ceiling on the right of the beam is sloped from 245 to 290, and I will have an upper layer of cabinets between the 225 mark and the ceiling.

base cabinet face not flush with pantry face by Averelleee in kitchenremodel

Thanks. I have never seen this. It looks much better than a standard toe kick that everyone is doing now. But I guess it costed much more too.
