I definitely want bulkheads and would be happy to have high cabinets for long-term storage (not necessarily kitchen items). However, I don't want the bulkheads to be huge - some designers are suggesting 60cm with 2.4m cabinets but nobody can show me a picture of what this might look like and I think it might look a little silly. We are now considering 1. dropping our ceiling 30cm then having a 30cm bulkhead and 2.4m cabinets or 2. having a 30cm bulkhead and 2.7m of cabinets, although its coming down to a matter of cost now ... our budget has been well and truly blown!! I have a recent Kitchen and Bathroom Quarterly which has a lovely old house with 3.3m ceilings, maybe check that out. Our ceilings are 12 foot. Our cabinets go to 2700mm. We had a bulkhead "mocked up" and it looked way too big. I suspect on 10 foot ceilings, unless the kitchen is part of a very large room, bulkheads may make it seem a bit overbearing.
