I think it’s a show room. Not one of mine, but I love it! Internal and External Building and Colour Consultant Online - Worldwide http://www.denovoconcepts.com Re: What do you think of this? 4Jun 06, 2007 11:33 pm I like the colour of the lower draws and cupboards, but the lime green is IMHO yuk.
I'm sure the www.603010.com.au website would comeup with better colours to replace the liem green. Also, well spotted Ash. Where's the ladder to get to the top oven!

Not to everyone’s tastes, not mine also….but the lime green I do like. I would like to see as an accent in a white kitchen.

And even if you could get past the obvious danger factor with kids, I think the floor around the cooktop would inevitably get greasy.
As for lime. Yech. It may be "in" right now, but such things never last. I also dislike the "dust collector" cupboards. Other than that. Mmmm, yeah, OK I suppose ![]() Edit: And is that a TV over the sink ? Spare me ![]() Re: What do you think of this? 11Jun 07, 2007 9:39 am I think the TV is a great idea. I can see future kitchens having mini pc's.
Can you imagine watching cooking shows, download great recipes and order groceries! Think outside the square.

Can you imagine watching cooking shows, download great recipes and order groceries! Think outside the square. Um, what about talking to real people or using your own brain to simply think ? It's as bad as TVs in the back seat of cars. Have we really got that little to say to each other any more ? Oh dear, I feel old. Re: What do you think of this? 14Jun 07, 2007 10:04 am If you plan to change your kitchen fairly reguarly, then it is fine. If you are like most people , your kitchen is going to last ages.
Lime green will date and you will probably grow to hate your descision. Stick with more traditional colours and you will have something long term. Sorry michelle, but I think designers deliberately put these "fashions" out there, knowing that they will date and people will be desperate to update. More $$$. As for the TV, I think it should be over the prep area as the sink is used far less with dishwashers these days. Talking of prep area, not much really is there? TV depends on whether the family tends to hang around the kitchen or poor old mum is left in the kitchen on her own. 3xb Re: What do you think of this? 15Jun 07, 2007 10:06 am ![]() Oh dear, I feel old.

Re: What do you think of this? 20Jun 07, 2007 10:59 am It’s good to see a colour that can spark so many emotions!!!
But lets remember it is only a SHOWROOM…… it’s meant to provide you with ideas. And speaking of lime green, I just used it in one of my projects for the Dance Area of a shop. Complemented with deep purple, the little girls will love it, and it looks great. Lime green has it place, but it’s defiantly not for everyone. I have a few scatter cushions of lime green and they look good, but they are there to complement colour schemes. It’s very hard to like a colour when it’s not your cup of tea, BUT any colour put together by a person with an eye for colour, and the understanding of colour combinations ……could surprise with the out come!!!! ![]() Internal and External Building and Colour Consultant Online - Worldwide http://www.denovoconcepts.com No. It's not original.
