My partner and I are both in our 20's and have just bought our first house, a modest mid-terrace. The kitchen is fairly small (4 x 5m). We've ripped out the fitted units so have the luxury of a blank canvas.
We're both clueless about how it should go. We're using a register electrician for the electrical work and my dad is helping us with fitting the kitchen, the plumbing etc.
Our budget is limited, but we want a fair job. The kitchen we've spec'd up using the Ikea planner can be seen here http://www.antjournals.com/kitchen.asp and comes out at £1,400 and another £1,400 for the appliances from Currys leaving £800 for the work.
We orignaly had a more ideal design, with a working traingle and the units going round 3 walls in a 'U' instead of the 2 wall 'L' design we are currently considering. The reason for the change is that we think even with the new design, we're never going to exceed the available storage as we hope to be in the house less than 5 years.
Any comments or suggestions regarding the design or chosen vendors for the project would be appreciated.
