Loads of us want to live
the open-plan dream. But traditional fitted kitchen
cupboards can dominate the space. Pegs, hooks and open shelves
are alternatives that help blend functionality with a homely feel. Exposed shelving? Why would you not just do cupboards? You've got to have an element
of aesthetics. It's got to look gorgeous. And high-level cupboards
very rarely look gorgeous. They're kind of right
at your eyeline and they kind of make the space
feel a little bit more enclosed. So because you can see the wall
and the shelf sitting on it rather than just a closed,
heavy cupboard, it gives that sense of space and continuity? Yeah, you can feel
the whole size of the room

Loads of us want to live
the open-plan dream.
00:00:03.092 --> 00:00:08.000
But traditional fitted kitchen
cupboards can dominate the space.
00:00:08.000 --> 00:00:12.068
Pegs, hooks and open shelves
are alternatives that help blend
00:00:12.068 --> 00:00:15.016
functionality with a homely feel.
00:00:17.048 --> 00:00:19.052
Exposed shelving?
00:00:19.052 --> 00:00:22.016
Why would you not just do cupboards?
00:00:22.016 --> 00:00:24.064
You've got to have an element
of aesthetics.
00:00:24.064 --> 00:00:26.076
It's got to look gorgeous.
00:00:26.076 --> 00:00:30.012
And high-level cupboards
very rarely look gorgeous.
00:00:30.012 --> 00:00:32.016
They're kind of right
at your eyeline
00:00:32.016 --> 00:00:35.044
and they kind of make the space
feel a little bit more enclosed.
00:00:35.044 --> 00:00:38.084
So because you can see the wall
and the shelf sitting on it
00:00:38.084 --> 00:00:42.008
rather than just a closed,
heavy cupboard, it gives that sense
00:00:42.008 --> 00:00:44.052
of space and continuity?
00:00:44.052 --> 00:00:46.096
Yeah, you can feel
the whole size of the room.
