Hi Sru, Mixing two diametrically opposite design styles is very difficult and often the outcome is unsatisfactory. We would suggest that you choose either one of the two. If you opt for traditional you can make use of the following tips : - A traditionally styled home or space need not have too many intricately carved elements or antiques. A few iconic ones scattered throughout do the trick. You may always underplay the rest of the furniture whilst highlighting a single chair or you may highlight a wall either by using a colour or wallpaper and keep the rest of the walls neutral. This way you don't end up with a gaudy design. - Invest in a good piece of furniture such as your bed, or dining table set or sofa. Try Lajpat Nagar market in Delhi or Chor Bazar, Raj Company in Mumbai. All the rest items such as tv units, cabinets, wardrobes can be made in a modular fashion and finished with veneer to maintain continuity. Avoid laminates wherever possible. (some of our projects elaborating the concept) If you opt for a modern design you can make use of the following tips : - The exterior of the house needs to blend with the interiors. Hence, you may have to rework on it. - When designing a modern space, a lot depends on the furniture and decor you are going for. It has to be simple, elegant and yet stand out as a statement piece. So invest likewise. Rugs, good lighting fixtures and figurines are always good options. - For other rooms you may use modular furniture or go all out and buy iconic items that make an impression. Try 360 or Natuzzi for furniture options. (some of our projects elaborating the concept) If you want a bit of both, go in for an eclectic theme. Use antique furniture with modern patterns for a quirky look. A mix of decor items and accessories may come quite handy to complete the look. These may be the items you have collected over years of travel etc. (some of our projects elaborating the concept) Hope this is helpful. Feel free to get in touch in case of doubts.

Hi Cornerstone, I read your feedback 1. Profile handles I was late as the doors were already ready and it was too much of re-work. Regarding putting handles 2. Sharp edge can cause problem thats why the handles I have put are rounded on the edge not to hurt. 3. Where I did make a mistake was Did not put fillers. If I had put fillers on the sides the door issues could be resolved The upper cabinet handles. This is actually not my fault I had told them to put the handles in the center but they thought these are not drawers but rather cabinets so they should be put in the location where we put the vertical handles. By the time I came to check it was too late and now I am stuck. I am thinking of putting maybe 8inch handles instead of current 5inch but not sure if that would help to improve the look. Old kitchen pictures attached they also had handles but smaller

The design is ok. On first look, the space around sink is a bit less, you may have trouble keeping dishes after washing. But that could be due to layout. It is a small kitchen. I prefer ceiling height cabinets to avoid dust gathering dead space. Even space above the fridge may have cabinet to store rarely used pieces of crockery. Chimney with its exhaust pipe is a must, not an afterthought. Consider under-cabinet light for workspace lighting; essential in my opinion. I also recommend lighter color of cabinets for this space. Too dark is too dingy, looks cheap and requires more maintenance. But that’s just my opinion. Have fun!
