They've been painted to update their look and give them a dash more style, and can be painted over at any time to change the feel of the room.Pale birch units have been sanded and primed and then painted with a lilac satinwood in the centre of each door. This soft, airy shade gives the room some interest without closing it in, and it's picked up on the walls for a coordinated look. Colour like this can easily be updated, whereas patterned tiles and Flooring are more permanent. The pale laminate Floor tones in perfectly with the birch of the units and the light worktop, so the room feels large and harmonious.
