THE BRIEF
This was part of a larger renovation project being undertaken by a couple in West Bridgford. They asked us to help them completely re-design the rear of the property to create a light-filled kitchen which would become the hub of the home.
THE SOLUTION
The kitchen itself required re-configuring as the property had been occupied by students for some years and the ground floor was divided into a number of small rooms. We project managed the transformation using our trusted team of tradespeople, including the builder, plasterer, electrician and plumber, to go from poky digs to this light filled kitchen, incorporating a fabulous atrium skylight and bi-folding doors overlooking the garden, both of which flood the room with light.
The cabinetry was designed using our Newton Smooth doors with a beaded panelling detail on the island, all sprayed in a colour match to Valspar's "Shadows on the Hilltop" in our on-site spray facility here at the workshop. A run of units along the side wall includes a fridge freezer, built in double ovens, ceramic double sink and glazed wall units with integral lighting, as well as shelving above the sink offering space to display cook books.
The island gives the room a very sociable feel, with seating for four to gather around comfortably, and houses an induction hob with a sleek finish, so as not to detract from the stunning granite worktop which is a real show-stopper!
On the opposite wall is a fabulous breakfast and drinks station with bi-fold doors and integrated lighting, allowing the coffee machine and related paraphernalia to be closed off from view as required, but which can be opened up for drinks making when the couple are entertaining.
KEY DESIGN FEATURES
This kitchen was designed for a geologist, so the worktop always needed to be something special! They fell in love with this stunning 'Cosmic Black' Granite which without doubt adds a WOW factor to the room.
