You can choose the surfaces separately and keep the forms and proportions as the visual anchor.

  • Use playful scale contrasts as the first comparison point when you shortlist cabinet fronts, worktops and lighting.
  • Keep the room layout and practical constraints fixed while you compare style directions in the visualizer.

General advice, not advice about this style

Nothing below is specific to Alice in Wonderland. It is what applies to picking any style out of a list of 206, and it is the part that saves people money.

Judge it in your own light

A palette behaves differently in a room with one north-facing window than it does in a showroom. The only version of this style worth judging is the one rendered on a photo of your kitchen, taken in daylight.

Change one thing at a time

If you swap the cabinets, the tile and the floor at once and dislike the result, you have learned nothing about which of the three was wrong. Run the whole-room style first, then settle the surfaces one by one.

Shortlist three, not thirty

Styles are cheap to try and expensive to install. Generate a handful, live with the pictures for a few days, and let the ones you stop opening fall away on their own.
