The photo from the Caesarstone website is THE kitchen that inspired me to do what I did. I took it with me to EVERY meeting! http://s1181.photobucket.com/albums/x43 ... G_8812.jpg All my handles were horizontal and centred. ONE warning though. The kitchen designer knew (and didn't tell me!! AAAGH!!) that horizontal handles make opening small cupboards almost impossible. I have two teeny tiny cupboards in my kitchen. And when the handles went on, the doors wouldn't open.
