Traditional Single-wall Eat-in Kitchen with Island Design Ideas

This dark green kitchen shows how Tom Howley can create a kitchen where everything has a place and can be easily accessed. Integrated appliances and bespoke storage minimise clutter and glass fronted cabinetry with subtle lighting provides plenty of opportunity to display both attractive essentials and pieces of art.

Design ideas for a mid-sized traditional single-wall eat-in kitchen in Surrey with shaker cabinets and with island.

The project involved using a combination of different stone materials creating a highly luxurious finish to this period property on one of Dublin's finest residential roads. In the games room, London Black Quartzite was used which has a beautiful variation of colour running through it. The colour, particularly mixed with the honed texture of the stone material, really suits the mood of this space. Materials used: Calacatta Paonazzo Marble, London Black Quartzite, Ponte Vechia Marble. Status: Completed in Summer 2015.

This beautiful hand painted railing kitchen was designed by wood works Brighton. The idea was for the kitchen to blend seamlessly into the grand room. The kitchen island is on castor wheels so it can be moved for dancing. This is a luxurious kitchen for a great family to enjoy.

Glencoe Cashmere's cool colouring and high gloss finish offer the the ultimate in urban style - perfect for the modern home. Create a striking contrast of colour and texture by completing your kitchen with smooth Corian worktops and split-face slate mosaic wall tiles.

Elements of this kitchen I love are - the sumptuous colour of the Obsidian green paint against the brass fittings. The high Dekton Aura backsplash with shelf. The Art Deco light fittings. And obviously the bespoke furniture. This is a gorgeous space!
