effusive combination of colours and textures to create a characterful rustic kitchen, but with a distinctly up-to-date feel. With the family dining table taking centre stage, and recessed plinth units lining the walls, the end result is a sumptuously sprawling space that effortlessly combines modern conveniences with classic design. The bluey grey adds drama and depth, whilst the warming beige lifts the room and maximises light. We added Granite ‘Ivory Wave’ worktops for a mottled finish, with Britinannium knobs and cup handles. The pewter alloy gives a smooth, clean finish to the kitchen without dispersing too much of its rural radiance. https://www.hillfarmfurniture.co.uk/rural-radiance/ Photo: Chris Ashwin

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.

The fundamental theme of the house throughout is black and white with a mix of old and new; a classic look which is complimentary to the villa period. This colonial-inspired kitchen gets its sparkle from the star patterned splash-back. Black-framed cabinetry with a silver rub and turned legs to the kitchen island enhance the look.

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.

This kitchen was commissioned by a very well-known interior designer, based in central London, for her own home. She was very keen to have a kitchen inspired by Biedermeier furniture. Biedermeier was an influential style of furniture design from Germany in the early 1800s, based on utilitarian principles. It came to describe a simpler interpretation of the French Empire style of Napoleon I: with clean lines and a simple, elegant look. With this brief, a bespoke kitchen was made from maple with birds eye maple panelling and ebonised black detailing. Black granite work surfaces and black appliances all combine to create an extremely elegant kitchen with a neoclassical and sophisticated look. The design and placing of the cabinets and sink, the central island and the kitchen table all mean that this is a hugely practical kitchen, able to cater for and accommodate a large number of guests.

A stunning Victorian property in Wanstead, London with high ceilings and a dining/living area is the recent project to be added to our portfolio. It’s the perfect example of classical design and craftsmanship effortlessly blended together to match the heritage of the Victorian-style property. The beautiful HMK Classic In-Frame Shaker has really brought this room to life with the added cock beaded front frame and recessed plinths. The colours are yellow and brown and the appliances are Neff. We also added a drinks cabinet too and a walk-in pantry in an adjacent room.
