Karen’s style tips

● Black accents not only add drama and a modern edge, but will ground the scheme and tie in with the existing dark kitchen worktops.

● As well as being ultra-sociable, a round extendable table is often the best solution in a tight space. In a room with several doors, it allows ease of access and there are no sharp corners to bang into.

● To make cupboards more accessible, consider pull-out wire baskets on runners, pot lid organisers that can be attached inside doors or a tiered shelf organiser so items at the back can be seen more easily.
