This wonderfully pretty kitchen is in a space that is often seen in many homes. However here, the same space is given a very individual look, by changing what was once a U-shape kitchen into a practical island with L-shape. The style and the colours assist in both the beautification and individualisation of the space. The designer has also utilised the space to maximum effect. The whole is then not only beautiful to look at, but also a joy to work in. Touches like the pressed metal splashback, range-style cooker in 'nook', and the very pretty blue used in the custom design island, create just the sort of look these clients were seeking - relaxed elegance with a generous touch of traditional, a nod to contemporary styles, and all the practical features they required as well.
