ASH IS BACK<br />
Out of fashion for a while, wood is now enjoying a huge revival -<br />
not least because it looks so wonderful against newer finishes like<br />
polished concrete. Use subtle-grained ash, paler than oak or walnut,<br />
to pick out the warm tones in manmade stone.<br />

LOVE THY LARDER<br />
Larder cupboards, sometimes known as pantry cupboards,<br />
have been kitchen staples for centuries and, in the last few<br />
years, have established themselves as one of the must-have<br />
items in modern homes.<br />
The great advantage of a larder and its storage capacity is that a<br />
kitchen no longer needs to be full of wall cupboards. Many also<br />
have the capacity to house appliances like toasters and coffee<br />
machines, meaning the worktops can remain free of clutter.<br />
