Not a fan of open units but maybe a customer specification or a limitation on what is available?
Any reason you did not use curved end units where the glass wall units are?
Yes, absolutely. It was a cost implication in that we were right on the customers budget and a curved unit top and bottom would have put another £1400 on the price.
Also we were trying to reduce the pinch point in what is quite a narrow walk through area so any millimetres saved were a bonus.... in fact, what I did on the renders was to plot a "box" which was about 750 w X d X about 900 high to demonstrate the width of the gap. The splay units were a better option. Also, every curve that granite companies have to form costs more.....
The customers were great to work with and I got this job all because I replaced their oven about 4 years ago. This explains why the slide and hide is not a match for the combi MW as they had no reason to change the original oven.
And the open unit.....it is 800mm wide overall so it was more about limitations of what was available. It will probably be a book case for the top two shelves with some sort of music system on the bottom, hence the socket outlet.
