Natural materials. Timeless design. Crafted to last.

Set within the heart of Edinburgh New Town, this bespoke kitchen was designed around the warmth and authenticity of natural materials. Rich wild walnut, tactile linoleum and beautifully characterful granite come together to create a space that’s understated, elegant and made for everyday living.

Every detail has been carefully considered - from the rich warmth of the wild walnut to the natural movement of the Sensa Vancouver granite and the seamless integration of every element - resulting in a kitchen that feels as though it has always belonged within the home.

A contemporary kitchen designed to feel calm, timeless and effortless to live in.

This project combines agate grey cabinetry with natural oak woodgrain detailing, paired with Milano quartz mineral worktops and a carefully selected suite of Neff appliances to create a space that’s as practical as it is beautiful.

Every project starts with understanding how our clients live. The result is a bespoke kitchen that’s tailored to their home, their lifestyle and the way they use the space every day.

A fantastic project to be involved in alongside our collaborators. Thanks to Elite Property Solutions , MDA Studio and 828 Media for helping bring it to life.

Beyond the kitchen… this project was about creating a sense of continuity across the entire home.

Working closely with Copper Grey Developments and Mills + McCullough Architects, we supplied materials for every room to ensure a cohesive and balanced palette. Carefully considered textures run throughout the property, creating subtle contrast while maintaining a calm and unified feel.

A key design principle was a continuous datum line running through the home at a consistent height. This quiet detail connects each space visually, bringing rhythm, balance and harmony to the interiors.

Projects like this demonstrate the power of a consistent material language - creating continuity and balance across the home. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Last week our team hosted our Women in the Industry event, bringing together women from across architecture, construction, property and interiors to connect, share experiences and support one another.

A big thank you to Kirsty Allan from City Access Scaffolding for sharing her journey and the lessons she’s learned along the way.

On International Women’s Day, it feels like the perfect time to celebrate the amazing women in our team and all the women continuing to make an impact across our industry.
