Kitchen Worktops Southfields
Daylight can make a surface look different from one end of the kitchen to the other.
Observe samples in more than one light
The long-wall-run kitchen in our portfolio includes a rooflight above pale surfaces and timber cabinetry. If your room also receives strong daylight, look at material samples in the morning, later in the day and under the intended electric lighting. Compare the finish from seated and standing positions.
Follow the line from island to wall run
When an island sits parallel to a long worktop, both edges can be visible at once. Mark the exposed ends, any changes in depth and the areas where a wall panel or upstand will finish. A consistent visual line does not necessarily require every piece to have the same detail, but differences should be deliberate.
Find your surface
Compare finishes, thicknesses and care requirements.
Should I choose a polished or a less reflective finish?
Compare the available finishes for the actual material in your own lighting and consider their care requirements. Neither a photograph nor a generic finish name is enough to settle the choice. Tell us which surfaces receive the strongest light and where you will usually view them from.
