KITCHENS
A kitchen is truly the heart of the home, a hub of activity, a place where people gather together and memories are made around food and conversation. It's a place that's used every day, and for this reason it should be not only aesthetically pleasing but with a wonderful atmosphere and easy to use. That's why we place so much importance on building kitchens that are in harmony with the home they're in and the people that inhabit them - kitchens where beauty and functionality go hand in hand. We have a knack for finding clever space-maximising solutions with considered design and the best accessories on the market. The superior quality of a carefully handcrafted kitchen will show in the exquisite details and skilful craftsmanship. Also, we make sure the kicthens we build last a lifetime and become your favourite place to be.
Below you will find examples of some of our more popular kitchen designs, from real Shaker in its timeless simplicity to light, eco-friendly and practical plywood, not forgetting contemporary kitchens or classic, like a traditional British and French farmhouse kitchen. Rustic or minimalist, country or urban, massive or mini- we know no two kitchens are the same, so we're happy to take on any new, creative projects featuring unique kitchen designs and give them our own touch of ingeniousness, skilful craftsmanship and love.

REAL SHAKER
KITCHENS
Simply beautiful and beautifully simple, Shaker is a timeless style that combining beauty and practicality can adapt to any space. There's a secret to making a real 5-step Shaker door: it requires the finest craftsmanship, which in turn guarantees longevity. You can accessorise your Shaker kitchen with cup handles, a tiled splashback and solid wood worktops, and choose a gorgeous colour to complete the look. Shaker kicthens are suited to both darks and lights thanks to the streamlined panel door design. The classic in-frame Shaker is the purest variation, both in its more contemporary or 'country' version but there's a plethora of options suit every budget, from different end panels to various materials for the carcasses .One thing's for sure: a Shaker kitchen is a forever kitchen.

PURE MINIMALIST KITCHENS
A calming, airy, gorgeous contemporary kitchen with top class accessories, featuring low-lying elongated lines and clever openings systems for cabinets, drawers and even the fridge! This ever popular, aesthetically pure style is designed to create the sense of a spacious interior and to enhance details that are important to you: an array of plants, a cool poster, a splash of colour - the things want to display on a shelf. You will see sleek, low-lying, elongated lines, and use of repetition to drive the eye along the room. Eternally adaptable, with variations routed or handleless drawer pulls atmospheric lighting, fabulous bespoke wooden internal drawer dividers and so forth, this kitchen is easy and calming, like a large canvas for you to paint your life on.

PLYWOOD ECO KITCHENS
Fun, practical and sustainable, plywood kitchens are great alternative to solid wood, offering the same warmth but a more contemporary look. Based on ready panels, they have clean, simple lines. Plywood is as solid structurally as it is pliable (pun intended) in terms of design. Be creative with it! Stain it, add veneer or laminate, or leave as it is -it's beautiful as a raw material in its own right. The characteristic striped edges make for a great feature, and it's a perfect material for shelving, peg walls and more. Eco friendly, (there's less wastage in the production process), and economical, a light-filled birch plywood kitchen is young, practical and warm - perfect if you love the natural look of wood without breaking the bank.

CLASSIC HERITAGE KITCHENS
You just can't beat the classic, classy elegance of a traditional quintessentially British kitchen. With subtle, evocative colours and natural wood, it oozes class but also warmth. You'll delight in details like moldings, dovetail joints etc., showcasing the superb craftsmanship of the maker. This type of kitchen really enhances period properties with original features such as a Georgian or Victorian home. Why not add a larder unit, a pantry, a large farmhouse table, a range cooker or a butler sink, to complete the look? You just can't go wrong with a kitchen like this. Built to last, elegantly blended with its surroundings, it's a class apart.
03/
INDIVIDUAL CONTEMPORARY KITCHENS
'Contemporary' is style of 'now' as opposed to 'yesterday.' 'Individual' means non-standard, unusual...unique. Characterised by clever, well-thought out design where function and aesthetics are fused together, these are kitchens where personality and taste define the look. Sometimes this means utter simplicity, other times maximalism or eclecticism: in other words, something different that creates a feature, a mood. The options are plenty in terms of finish, from luxurious high gloss, clear lacquer, colour contrast or the pared down elegance of stained wood with glorious matching woodgrain surfaces. Or a show stopping stone worktop. Accessories are an integral part of the concept here, and define each individual look.
06/
RUSTIC & COUNTRY KITCHENS
A cosy, warm kitchen with a heart of gold - kitchen that really is the heart of the home. There are plenty of different country style kitchens, from rustic to classic French farmhouse kitchens, to a particular take on Shaker. In fact, what makes a country kitchen is not the style per se, but the overall atmosphere: cosy, lived-in, warm: a charming kitchen with a big heart. A welcoming, homely space to be in, such kitchens busy with jam and pickle jars, chunky chopping boards and baskets of fresh produce, a country kitchen will typically have large butler sinks, range cookers, weathered wooden worktops, wicker baskets and pots with fragrant herbs in. Soft or sunny colours suit it best, and individual touches - creating a casual and personal feel that speaks of family and hearty, yummy recipes.
A TRULY BESPOKE KITCHEN
The advantage of a truly bespoke kitchen means that it's built around you - your lifestyle, your habits and tastes. The things that you are passionate about - cooking, creating a herb garden, making jams, collecting fine wine or perhaps just having the children around baking and mucking about, doing the homework, playing...So if you give us the privilege to design a kitchen for you from scratch, we'll make sure we listen attentively to your brief, to understand exactly how you want to use the space, what amount of storage you need and what elements are really important for you. Then, we will offer your our expert advice on how best to achieve it all.
​
In a kitchen many elements come into play, and they really make a difference: from worktops to lighting, from clever accessories inside the cabinets to appliances. The luxury of a beautiful kitchen island, open shelves or a bespoke pantry can be a wonderful addition, for example, and save you tons of space. We can advise you on all of this, show you different options and together we will build the kitchen you have always dreamt of. We have a wealth of experience, and trust us: when it comes to kitchens, we really know our stuff!

Worktops & Splashbacks
We complement our kitchens with a wide range of worktops, from solid wood such as iroko, oak, teak to stone, Corian-type surfaces, which we make and fit ourselves whenever possible. We love finding on-trend worktop solutions - copper, stainless steel, concrete, you name it! And the same goes for splash backs, be they a wonderful tiled feature or a discreet glass one. We can advise on the best for each kitchen style, their pros and cons, and fit all the accessories you need, too.
Handles, Knobs & PULLS
'The details are not the details, they the design,' said the great Charles Eames. And that's never more true than with handles and pulls - a defining feature of each kitchen. Many of our kitchen fronts feature our very own, handcrafted opening systems, such as v and j pulls, which can be designed to reveal a contrasting wood detail or the striped edge of plywood, for example. We also supply a wide range of top class ironmongery, and install any that you might have chosen yourself.
Lighting & Accessories
It's always lighting that creates the magic, bringing out the beauty of your kitchen. We can install ad hoc ambient lighting such as LEDs, spotlights, internal lighting for drawers and cupboards etc. to enhance your kitchen, according to your requirements. We'll source kitchen lighting that shares a design dialogue with your kitchen furniture, so that the whole feels sophisticated and considered. We are always keeping up to date with the latest solutions the industry has to offer, ready to bring it to you.
SINks, TAPS & Appliances
As a part of our comprehensive service, we can install and connect your appliances for you, be they integrated or otherwise.

We're constantly on the lookout for new trends and innovation in this field, particularly in terms of energy efficiency and cool design!
Kitchen furniture & shelves
We can handcraft bespoke kitchen furniture just for you, such as a set of special wooden bar stools, an extendable dinner table, long benches and more. If you have a special project such as building around-the wall storage seating, no problem! Why not add some shelving for the things you want to display, and keep handy? It can be a great alternative to top cupboards, creating a natural long line that guides the eye along the room, creating the illusion of a bigger space. It can also add a touch of natural wood to a painted kitchen.
Islands, Pantries, & Larders
Space permitting, a kitchen island, a pantry, a pull-out larder or a picklery unit are wonderful (and clever!) additions to a kitchen. They make for ingenious storage solutions, while at the same time featuring as an integral part of the design., We'll build them to your specifications, with beautiful details such as spice and wine racks, deep drawers and drawer dividers for crockery, cutlery, cookbook shelves, bar seating area and so on, as always using the best accessories on the market.
Wine storage & bars
For all of you lovers of life, there no place like your kitchen to reflect your habits and lifestyle. If you're a wine lover, we can create amazing bespoke wine storage solutions, from standalone wine racks to wine fridges and wine storage cabinets. Love the idea of a bar? We can make one for you, be it an informal breakfast bar with handmade bar stools as an extension of your worktop or a complete luxury home bar, maybe behind foldaway doors where glasses and bottles shine under atmospheric lighting, just waiting for your guests to come!
CABINET FRONTS & INTERNAL DETAILS
With a bespoke kitchen, the only limit is your imagination! We have a wide range of door and drawer fronts in our portfolio, and we are equally happy to make any cupboard front your creativity suggests. In frame or not, shaker or panel, trendy matt black or profiled traditional; high gloss, or matt, hand or spray-painted in any colour of the spectrum or in wood, showing off matching woodgrain - whatever rocks your boat!

Kitchens should be designed around what's truly important. Fun, food and life.
