Open plan kitchen layout for kitchen diner/playroom.

Hi,
We live in an Edwardian property. We have recently knocked through from the old morning room to the dining room. Planning to have the kitchen in the old dining room, which I'd the larger of the two rooms - measures 3.8m X 3.4m.
Most of the kitchen designers have suggested an L shaped layout. I would like a small island but don't want it to dominate the space.
I would like a white modern, sleek and contemporary kitchen. We are also considering porcelain floor tiles. Any ideas welcome.

    An island can be a great focal point, encouraging you to face into the room whilst working in kitchen. This promotes eye contact with other people and makes the room feel more sociable. If you can make do with all the pragmatics in the 'L' then your island needn't be a big dominating block and could have a more imaginative nature...

      Because we can see a highchair there it looks like a young child is part of your family. For that reason alone I strongly suggest that white gloss will drive you crazy because it will always be fingermarked and jammy, and porcelain will be noisy and hard for a child to fall on. Try amtico on the floor and a painted finish for the cabinets - just to save yourself a few years of constant irritation from mucky whites. The child/ren will want to run in and out to the garden from the conservatory so I would use that part of the room for sitting and eating. The back wall where the ceiling is a funny shape would be a great place for a bank of cupboards and appliances and if you don't have a separate utility it could be useful to have the washing machine and tumble drier in the conservatory with a sink where the kids can wash their muddy hands.

      Good afternoon, Perhaps you should consider Matt finishes rather than Gloss, as you would find these much more forgiving in terms of cleaning, as mentioned earlier gloss can be a pain particularly with children. In terms of layout often a peninsular provides a lot of the benefits and functionality of an island but can work better in some layouts. Good luck and I hope this helps you?

      Warm regards Matthew

      Looks like a great space to work with. If you want to send over your plans, we would be happy to help. Here's an install we're doing right now with a similar size space, albeit in a different style.

      An L shaped design sounds fine to me and I think it's practicality will outweigh concerns about it dominating.
      I agree a soft white is nicer in an older property and a more modern look than gloss but I don't agree that a painted finish is better with young ones as it can chip- I would look for a laminate door which despite being perceived to be lower quality will likely stand up to rough treatment

      Hi there, it really depends on the dimensions of the room. You don't want to make the kitchen feel cramped, but an island does help bring a feeling of inclusion to the kitchen, especially if you have kids. if you have some dimensions, I could draw up a 3D idea for you?

      You could always have a single width island which won't take up the whole space. Here's a couple we've done before:

      This is an alternative to a Kitchen Island, in a Kitchen we recently completed in Northamptonshire. There is a full case study on our Houzz profile if you are interested in learning more.
