When it comes to fitted kitchens, people normally have an
idea as to whether they would like an ultra- modern design or something more
traditional but if you want something a little different why not blend the past
with modern day elegance?
Although many prefer to live in the present and leave the
past behind the retro look is far from outdated. Glancing through some of the electrical stores
in Glasgow, it is easy to spot modern day versions of old-fashioned kettles,
microwaves, teapots etc., All exuding
the essence of yesteryear but running with modern day efficiency.
Flooring: Create that
Olde World feel with a slate floor as a beautiful and stunning feature. Blend it with slick modern day kitchen
cupboards and your kitchen fitter will be inundated with new customers wanted
to combine the old with the new!
Work Surfaces: Emanate
the essence of the past by having solid wood surfaces fitted in place of
laminate. Not only is wood extremely
durable, it is also environmentally friendly if you opt for timber which has
been recycled.
Cupboards: Kitchen
cupboards are the soul of a fitted kitchen and can hide or emphasise according
to your requirements. Create a traditional
style but use modern day white goods and hide them behind cupboards which have
that dated look.
Electrical Appliances:
Retro-themed refrigerators, washing machines and even a traditional
range will all add to the aire of days gone by and blend perfectly with modern
day fitted kitchens.
Gadgets: The finishes
touches can be achieved according to your budget. Visit car boot sales or antique shops to pick
up copper pans, pestle and mortars and even old fashioned jelly moulds for
decorative charm.
Browsing through the many designs at Akwa Plumb kitchens it
is easy to see how the past can be blended with the present to create an
unusual and versatile look which will yield complements from both the younger
generation and the older one too!
