Design ideas for a traditional u-shaped eat-in kitchen in Surrey with no island.

The kitchen, located in the lower ground floor, was updated with bespoke cabinetry fitted around the chimney breast with a range cooker within the existing fireplace.

The second project for Edit 58's Lisa Mehydene, this time in London. The requirement was one long run and no wall cupboards, giving a completely open canvas above the worktops.

This painted kitchen was designed for the Chairman of David Hicks Plc. It was designed to complement the classic, elegant interior of a Cornish manor house. The interiors of the kitchen cupboards were made from maple with dovetailed maple drawers. The worktops were made from maple and iroko. The finial hinges to all the doors were silvered to add a touch of luxury to this bespoke kitchen. This is a kitchen with a classic understated English country look. Designed and hand built by Tim Wood

From the moment the Browns first visited the dilapidated Victorian vicarage they fell in love with its potential. Having been unoccupied for over a decade, the five-bedroom detached property in Essex was inhabitable. However, with its original period features all still intact, the scale and proportions of the building provided the perfect opportunity to create a unique family home. The original kitchen was in a part of the Vicarage that was only single skinned (wall thickness), therefore, to comply with modern building standards the room needed to be rebuilt. This provided the couple with the opportunity to increase the space available to accommodate a spacious kitchen-diner. To complement the Victorian heritage of the property the kitchen furniture was designed in Davonport’s classic Tillingham shaker-style cabinetry and hand-painted in Farrow and Ball’s Hague Blue with striking bronze elements. A selection of luxury appliances from Sub-zero Wolf, Miele, and Quooker were chosen by the Browns to suit their lifestyle – they especially missed the ease of a hot water tap whilst living in rented accommodation when they were renovating!

This is an example of a large traditional u-shaped eat-in kitchen in London with a farmhouse sink, shaker cabinets, blue cabinets, marble benchtops, metallic splashback, glass tile splashback, panelled appliances, medium hardwood floors and with island.

This light-filled, elegantly designed kitchen, close to the water at Clontarf, hallmarks classic Hampton elements and oozes style and sophistication. The clasically detailed island features a traditional white ceramic butlers basin, a concealed pull out bin and storage for crockery. The deep bench-top accommodates seating for casual dining at the back of the island. Its shaker style fronts in Resene Gumboot stand out beautifully against the crisp white cabinetry behind. Chunky floating shelves run perfectly into the side of the stainless steel canopy rangehood, providing an open space to display crockery or cookbooks adding a homely feeling and visual interest to the space. A cleverly designed walk-in pantry located just off the kitchen boasts ample storage and bench space and also includes a second sink and a dishwasher.

Simon Taylor Furniture was commissioned to design and make an elegant in-frame Shaker kitchen for a couple in a detached Georgian house in a semi-rural setting at the end of a village in Aylesbury Vale, Buckinghamshire. The clients wanted the kitchen to have modern features and contemporary appliances but for the look to be in harmony with the rest of their property. The 30m² ground floor space had always been the kitchen and it has lots of natural light shining in from two aspects. Ornate architraves surround each of the leaded windows that feature recently restored original wooden shutters on either side of the deep set window sills, making an outstanding feature of the room. The bespoke kitchen furniture was designed, made and handpainted in Farrow & Ball Mole’s Breath for the island and Purbeck Stone for the cabinetry to perfectly complement these heritage features, which were also painted in Purbeck Stone. At the start of the project, the clients specified that they wanted a breakfast area with integrated Shaker style tongue and groove bench seating within the kitchen itself. They have a separate formal dining room, so this was to be designed for more informal occasions. They also wanted lots of storage including a pantry cupboard, a bi-fold breakfast cupboard, pull out drawers for pots and pans and open shelving for cookery books. They wanted to have a kitchen island included for food preparation, but not for cooking and all of these requirements were incorporated within the design. As keen cooks, they also requested top of the range kitchen appliances and Miele Generation 7000 appliances were specified including an 80cm induction hob, 60cm Oven, 45cm Combination Steam Oven and 29cm warming drawer plus a 60cm fully integrated dishwasher. The French door fridge freezer is by Fisher and Paykel and a concealed canopy hood is by Siemens. The worksurface is 30mm Andromeda White Granite throughout; a classic pale granite from Sri Lanka with sharks nose edging that the clients had seen in the Simon Taylor Furniture showroom. A large double bowl sink is from the Zen 15 range from 1810 Company and the Mix lever tap is by Perrin and Rowe, with a further Boiling Water tap by Quooker.

More than just a kitchen, this beautifully spacious and light room makes this Classic English Kitchen by Hutton England a space for living, lounging, cooking & dining. The large 5 oven Aga nestled beneath the grande faux mantle and the oak accents give this room a warm, homely feel. The classic english styling of the room is further emphasised by the simplicity of the pallette; the softness of the light grey cabinets balances the bold, deep green of the island complementing the natural spledour of the granite which ranges from rich emeralds to dark british racing greens. A suite of larders and integrated fridge freezers at the other side of the island add a bold splash of our customers flair and personality whilst reflecting the lighter greens of the granite opposite. A refreshing change from the more fashionable calm grey's and cool blue's, this dramatic and atmospheric space shows just how diverse our Classic English Kitchens can look and if you want to be a little different, you can be.

The gentle curves and traditional craftsmanship combined with excellent design make for a practical and beautiful kitchen. The kitchen layout is spacious but with a large amount of well organised storage in both the painted island and oak kitchen cabinets. The sink looks over the garden and has easy access to cutlery drawers and the Miele dishwasher. The Falcon cooker was set forward from the back of the original chimney to give practical worksurfaces to each side of the appliance. The space behind the cooker is fully utilised by the creation of a granite ledge. On the right hand side of the cooker the surface was trimmed back to a standard worktop depth using a series of curves with curved cabinets underneath. The island top is split into a work area with easy access to the sink and fridge, and a breakfast bar area. The carefully chosen Kashmir White granite of the work area has a generous round chopping board inserted adjacent to the sink and cooker to allow easy food preparation. A freestanding bin is located below the chopping board. The island is painted in Bone China, by Little Greene Paint Company, in contrast to the oak used in the rest of the kitchen. The granite is shaped carefully, as are the cabinets, to accentuate one of the key visual features of room, the cast iron column supporting the ceiling.

Antiqued French limestone flagstones were used for the floor throughout this renovated property. They were chosen to match in with some of the existing flooring which the owner was keen to keep in some areas.
