Not to my tastes but each to their own.

Very,very nice looks like an expensive job.
Shame it does not line up with the floor slabs,that would drive me nuts!
Mark.
I had to install laminate flooring in a fitted kitchen last year. It was that tile effect stuff.
I (and I mean by my choice) had to remove all the plinths and lay it full width of the room under the units by winding up the plastic legs in turn and then setting it back on the laminate after I had slid it underneath.
The clients would have been happy for me to just lay it but I was determined to lay it so that the tiles lined up with the plinths and the internal corners of the run of units and be as close to square with the doorways and walls and not end on a slither of tile so that it would look as close to a proper tiler's job.
It would drive me nuts if I had left it out of line even if I didn't have to live with it.
In my own kitchen I was really careful to get the same laminate right.
A perfect 80% of the way across the floor and the grout lines suddenly stopped lining up. Each laminate was probably only 1/2mm shorter then what I had already laid but over 5m it was showing. :evil:
I checked all the batch numbers and everything was correct and the same. But the last few packs were slightly shorter then the first lot and there was nothing I could do as they were all opened and in storage for a few months aclimatising while the kitchen was being plastered.
