I am considering Stat White for my kitchen but I can't get passed the pantry (high cab) door (which I will have a big area of ). The Stat pattern is continuous on the long door (lines from top to bottom with no break). Other high cab doors of other patterns such as Adel and Lidingo have blocks of the pattern which, IMHO, breaks up the monotony and is more pleasing to the eye.

Here's the Stat:



Here's the Lidingo:



I know Adel breaks up similar to Lidingo.

Is there something that I'm missing or is this the real gig?

Thanks!

You can use a couple of smaller doors instead of the one big door if you want. I think that's what is pictured in the second pic of Lidingo.

Instead of using one door, you might consider breaking it up with drawer fronts and more than one door, as an option.

Hi.

I am not sure where that second picture is taken from but it doesn't look like a high cab pullout pantry. It is most likely one of the built in options for refrigerator/freezers here in Europe. That model has two doors, top part is the fridge, bottom is the freezer. There is an grate opening at the bottom. Yes, fridge/freezers really are that small here - usually 60cm wide and 187cm tall.

Here is a link to the UK site so you can see what I mean. IKEA | Built-in kitchens | FAKTUM/RATIONELL system

although the second picture is a built in (as mentioned above) i know what you're saying about the pantry doors for the various whites, yes Adel and Lidi separate the door with additional stiles, though that is because of how those doors are constructed with the recessed and raised panels. Stat doesn't have that, so it's one solid door. The above solutions are good options. and if you want the doors to open as one you can connect them together so that one handle would open both stacked doors. you'd still get the "broken up" look

Hi! Sorry for the offtopic, but where do you get those mouldings around the lidingo kitchen?

[DulcineaK]

that looks like a wall with really nice built up base boards and then crown moulding at the top.

Aha, i see. and the cabinets are stuffed between those walls. (drywall maybe). I understand. Thanks.

yup, kinda like an alcove
glad to be of service
