Ovens Ovens







Started looking around at what's available in ovens. I have always liked the look of the sturdy AGA's and the fact that they can be linked into providing hot water and heat for the house, but I'm not sure how they would work in the Summer for efficiency and secondly as we progress down the age track I want to consider that the design of the kitchen will work as well for us now and it will in our older years. Had a look at the NEFF range and was seriously impressed with the thought that has gone into the design. They are made by Siemens so seriously engineered and are the no 1 seller in the UK and no2 in Germany. Plus for the price of an AGA we could afford 2 ovens including a microwave oven and a serious inbuilt coffee maker with enough money left over for a dishwasher and and sink...not bad. They also offer a free cooking demo on the appliances with a lunch made from the demo a pretty good sales pitch.

Kitchen




Here are some more photos of the Emerson made kitchen - love the block table and again that pantry would give the house a lovely warm and lived in feeling.

Kitchen




I love this look for our kitchen - modern country to a Tee. Love that central bench. Also love EmersonMades open pantry shelving would love to incorporate this one into our design.

Kids Bathroom


I like this idea of keeping it really simple for the kids. Also thinking a door exiting to an external shower place near the pool may be handy for messy children.

Mud Room


I think this idea of a mudroom would be perfect for our new house.
Obviuosly the language of the house will probably lend itself to more of an open shelve scandanavian look but I think adding in a few eclectic pieces will soften and make it feel like home.

Hi, my name is Sally. I have decided to use my blog as an inspiration journal for my interior design course, and as a way to catalogue my source file.

My style is to use beautiful reinvented recylcled pieces, and to mix these with modern materials, where possible incorporating a sustainable approach. I hope you find my blog interesting.
