Ray Tay Hong Choon 4 Report post Posted March 24, 2015 Very nice detail sketch on the drawings. But I find that your kitchen cabinet is abit too tall. Normal height for kitchen cabinet including vanity top is about 850mm, 900mm is fine if all the family members who will be using the kitchen top are very tall.
