We went to Biller yesterday (with Eileen) to see if you could get some inspiration for a kitchen. It was Verkaufsoffener Sonntag, which means a Sunday where the shops were allowed to open for business. There are usually a couple of these each year. The local government gets to decide if and when a Verkaufsoffener Sonntag happens. We got to Biller at about 10:15 and it was relatively quiet - which was good. It turned out that the selling (including sales advice) was only from 13:00 but that didn't bother us much anyway, as were were there to look around, not to buy.
When we got up on the top floor, where the kitchen area is, we saw a kitchen called 'Lucy' from vito-kuechen.de. It turns out that the Vito mark is owned by the Begros GmbH group. This group is a purchaser for many of the big (non Ikea) furniture shops in Germany - including Biller. After a bit of research later (the Internet is great for things like that), I am almost sure that the Begros group bought the Lucy kitchen from Nobilia, a big name among kitchen makers.
Anyway, below is a smartphone photo (which is why it is a bit blurred I imagine) of the Lucy kitchen. I need to have a look at the dimensions of our kitchen to see what would need to be doctored. I'd imagine it could go in pretty much exactly as you see in the photo, but mirrored - i.e. the L-Shape would need to be in the other direction. The long edge is 4,3 metres. The longest wall in our kitchen would be long enough but there are two windows in it. The other wall (the Feuermauer) is about 4 metres - so it wouldn't fit exactly, but with a bit of planning it could.
