  • With the weather taking a turn for the worse the outside has to get out on hold …….
    Kitchen installation in the guest apartment @ Our Passion Project
    will the worktop fit ?
    Finishing off the kitchen at the guest apartment
    From adding the sink , hot plate to extractor fan without forgetting the tailing ....
    When you are planning 1 kitchen it is very hard but when It is 3 kitchens it is even harder ...
    Edd designed the kitchens and he chose some beautiful worktop but sometimes not all goes to plan ...
    The guest apartment kitchen was meant to be an easy one to get ready however with all the setbacks it seems it has so far been the trickiest one
    6 years ago there was just overgrown grass where this apartment was
    Today there is this cosy guest apartment
    So much progress on this vlog watch us finish off the 2nd kitchen at our passion project :)

    The tiles are great. With the few left over tiles you could back them with felt or cork so that they can be used on counter tops or window sills as pot stands.

    I would have wanted the sink in front of the window for esthetics and I like to look outside to watch the birds. I would have had more space between the cooktop and the sink since you have room for work surface between them. Just me being picky and loving a good amount of work space in the kitchen!

  • @Lagunainkspot

    It looks great. I think I may have cut those feet down to accommodate the windows and just put skirting board around it on the bottom to keep dirt from under it. We do not have space under our counters here in the USA. It's always finished solid. I would obsess about how clean it was underneath. LOL

    New kitchen looks great! Would have solved the distance between the cooktop and sink by just turning the sink around so that the drain board would be on the right. With the drainer on the left and the placement of the tap you’ve brought the water source closer to the stovetop which is what the law is trying to prevent. Also the drainer on the right would be more convenient for right handed folks. No prejudice here as I’m left handed myself. If you were concerned about the drainer being visible from outside the window this could’ve been easily solved with a few plants on the sill and watering them with the sprayer would’ve been a piece of cake. I know I’m being very picky but having the tap closer to the stove with a hand held sprayer and drainer seems a bit more dangerous than the law intends especially with the addition of the metal strip so close to both. Also there’s such limited workspace between the stove and sink, a disadvantage. But it does look absolutely gorgeous though!

    You could build support frames to replace the feet on the cabinets that would give you the correct height. That way the counter top could be level with the window sill and the windows could open properly. It looks odd having the counter top higher than the window sill. Support frames would have the added benefit of closing in the bottom of the cabinets. Cleaning under those cabinets will be a real pain as they will collect all manner of dust and debris.

    Ed, try pilates. I used to regularly have back problems but when I started to do pilates it gradually improved as my spine became more flexible and my core muscles grew stronger to support my back. Find a good teacher who teaches small classes and is hands on and checks your position. It would be good for both of you.

    Plugs. Not sure why Ed thinks the cord from the toaster/blender/etc is gonna look good up the wall like that. The reason they are close to the worktop is to hide the cords behind the appliances and also the cords are usually relatively short, so there isn't a bunch of cords bunched up behind the appliances, & may not reach. It does take more tile cuts if you put them in the standard place.

    hmmm.. the whole sink seems to be back to front.. and the wrong way round for someone who is right handed? It looks awkward with a larger lip at the front than the back.. With tap on the draining board (and on the left hand side) there is no room for a proper draining rack and any pans on the draining board will hamper the tap, especially if you are right handed? Are those plug sockets up on the wall? Not sure my kettle flex would stretch that far... I can see that this the end of a large project and you just want to get it done. The kitchen looks fab though, if not practical. well done, another job ticked off!😁
