Sleek and Chic Grey Modern Kitchen West Sussex

Modern Kitchen, Sussex

This sleek and chic pastel blue kitchen project is a stylish German kitchen with a touch of raspberry. This project has been designed and built for a husband and wife in Fernhurst, West Sussex, who loves to entertain. The wife is also a professional baker, so she was very clear about the space she wanted to create. The renovation goal was a kitchen with enough space for creating baked goods and socialising. Additionally, it must have a clear boundary so that guests can circulate around the rest of the room without coming into the central cooking zone. To turn this idea to life, we built a long peninsula that provides plenty of workspace for baking and ample storage for all of the client's baking supplies. We used Nolte's Feel range in Platinum Grey for the cabinetry and incorporated a LeMans corner mechanism for the tambour and larder units to maximize storage space. The 560 metal tab pull handles finish off the look and completes the kitchen's sleek, modern aesthetic. The worktops are from Classic Quartz in Alaska Quartz, a marble-effect worksurface that complimented the grey Nolte doors. To add a pop of colour and liven up the room, we opted for a glass raspberry pink backsplash that blends seamlessly with the sleek and chic theme of the space. This contemporary kitchen was also designed with tea and coffee lovers in mind. We built a tea and coffee station using our Matrix 900 cabinetry, which is the perfect height for making coffee. Floating shelves are included for additional storage of tea and coffee supplies. Appliances from AEG, Neff, and Elica provide the much-needed functionality to the space, while Franke sinks and taps add the finishing touches. Overall, this modern kitchen is light and airy with a touch of pink for a bit of fun and personality.
