4. Complementing surfaces - Combining
different styles of countertops in
contrasting colours and textures helps
to create visual drama and creativity
within the room. It's also a great option
for those on a budget as a stunning piece
of marble can be used in a small area as
a focal point, whilst a cost-effect surface
can be utilised for the remaining space.
5. Beyond the kitchen – Each room in
the home should always look to link to
the next, creating a fluid motion and
connection through the entire home.
Furniture that creates a link, such as
sliding doors and open plan shelving
units can be used to create living-dining
areas that bring two zones together.
