Larder unit to sink unit - end panel question

[au8830]

For a continuous run of units, with a tall larder cupboard stepping down to a sink unit, would you put a full height end panel on the side of the larder unit, or just from the worktop to top of larder unit?

I think I would go for full-height as it will avoid any oddities regarding door alignment. The thickness of the décor panel could look odd if finished on to of the worktop as there won't be a natural finish line to it (when viewed from the front). If you were to finish it abutting the sink base unit then you will see an odd 'step' where the worktop finishes against the cupboard.

Hard to explain without visual aid but hopefully you will get my drift. Also I don't think there would be any cost saving as you would still need to buy a full-height panel even if you were to cut it down as you suggest.

Thanks, that's the direction I was leaning.
