This was just the Ikea one, Magnet do something similar but I find the Ikea one can be abused to use other size carcasses a lot easier.

For anyone interested, I'm just embarking on this project and will be ripping my kitchen out next weekend (might even do some pics which I always forget to do).
Design is pretty final after umming and arring (I think).
Cabinets will be coming from DIY-Kitchens and will have painted wooden shaker doors with the units matching, a quartz top with upstands and draining cutouts and appliances will be Neff although relooking at AEG as a last minute possibility as they are doing a 5 year warranty promo. As a side note (for Jez if he reads this), I went to the DIY-Kitchens showroom and it was v good, the quality of the units and doors was much better than I'd have expected (and far better than the sheds).
A couple of changes from the previous design but this is pretty much what I ended up with (give or take a swap of drawerline units for highline units). The main sticking points were removing the built in microwave in to a doored cabinet to save on the ridiculous built in microwave costs (£750) and also adding a tall unit for storage so I could keep cabinets from the walls as the room is limited for light and I wanted to keep it fairly open.
