The Designerโs Take โจ
A brighter take on a classic kitchen layout..
โฌ
๏ธ SWIPE for Before & After
Our clients wanted to retain the existing kitchen layout while making the space feel brighter, lighter and more open.
With limited natural light coming through the small window, the old oven housing was also blocking some of that precious light. We carefully considered how to improve the flow of the room without changing the overall layout.
The clients were also keen on an American-style fridge freezer. While practical, these can be quite bulky and easily become a focal point in the room. Instead, we opted for tall, integrated fridge and freezer units, giving them all the storage they wanted while keeping the overall look streamlined.
We positioned all of the cooking appliances along one wall, leaving the opposite wall completely clear and dedicated to food preparation. This creates a much cleaner, more functional workspace.
The matt light grey cabinetry is paired with a beautiful quartz worktop and matching splashback, adding subtle colour while helping to reflect and maximise the available light.
To complete the space, we designed a bespoke dining table using the same quartz stone, creating a lovely connection between the kitchen and dining area.
A thoughtful redesign that keeps the original layout, but makes the space feel brighter, more spacious and much more considered.
