Hi all, My existing kitchen needs a major revamp and I am currently in the process of talking to kitchen vendors to redo the whole thing and also add a kitchen island for regular dining. I am a bit confused about what finishes to go for to achieve a classy yet fun kitchen. I love the Spanish/ Moroccan tiles that are in style these days and would love to use them on the back splash and floor. Also, mostly got to go with black granite counter tops to survive Indian cooking. For top cabinets, If i got with white matte/hi-gloss(you can suggest which easy to maintain and look good) and wood veneer on bottom cabinets, would it be too busy and clash ? Please help me out with this. Thanks in advance. EXISTING INSPIRATION

Hi all, as soon as I open the front door clockwise, there is a 2.5 ft wide space(height 8 ft) on the left followed by L shape column leading to another 4 ft wide space. This was the servant washroom and I want to use it for show rack and foyer. The X area on the opposite has a window. Should the access to this area be through hall?What are possible functional design ideas? I will also need access to the servant room at the left back. Flat layout is attached.

Hello Deezpage, Before implementation take care of certain points, 1) In the master bathroom do you need two different basins + two different bathing area ( shower trey + bath tub)? Instead you can make it look bigger in size by providing the fixtures and fittings which you need. 2) Master bedroom wardrobe section --you can demolish the wall and provide wardrobe as a partition which will give more openness to the room and will be more effective from the interior point. 3) I agree with cornerstone about changing the kitchen door position and shifting it on the dining room side which will be convenient for the person working in the kitchen and will give a finished look in the foyer area. 4) For the laundry area you can use the upper side for the storage and lower area for the washing machine. 5)Kitchen requires more detailing then other rooms. My suggestion will be to consult a professional instead of planning on your own. For any king of help, you can feel free to contact us.

Hello Anil, Some points to check as per vastu, 1) Your plot is not 90 degrees. 2) Never position the beds in any of the angle directions i.e. in the drawing two of the bedrooms showing beds positioned in the corner. SW position gives restlessness, Nw is the moon side so it will affect the person with weak/strong moon accordingly. 3) As in the drawing your main entry is in the SE corner which should be avoided. 4) Stairs up and down position is not given, so can't comment on that. 5) Column positions are not specified in the drawing so marm sthan and bramh sthan cannot be checked if there is any problem.
