A full kitchen redesign in Norwood Junction, taking a kitchen that previously lacked enough storage to create a stylish and functional space that my clients want to cook and spend time in.
The brief was to create a kitchen with dark tones and plenty of wood, and I designed this with black fenix and oak veneer doors, coupled with splashback and floor tiles for texture.
Here the layout was dramatically changed, adding in floor to ceiling cabinetry, open shelving, a breakfast cupboard and opening up the window by removing the sink and dishwasher that were previously here.
A great project to work on.

The traditional Irish style kitchen is reimagined, drawing on visual harmony and capitalizing on natural light—made possible by the beautiful detailing and elegant symmetry.
Painted in a silky heritage white, the beaded in-frame cabinetry is designed with classic shaker doors and finished with chrome exposed butt hinges and knobs. Thoughtfully hidden storage, including a bi-fold breakfast station, keeps surfaces clear while supporting daily life with ease and elegance. Cabinets and units have been arranged in a pleasing symmetrical layout, with mirrored glazed uppers cut into geometrically interest shapes for architectural interest.
However, the room moves away from sharp angles, embracing a more fluid, comforting form. The edges of cabinets, worktops, plinths, cornices, tongue-and-groove panelling and the sweeping oak breakfast bar have all been curved or rounded. In combination with an abundance of natural light through the oak-framed windows, the result is a space that feels bright, breathable, and gently layered.
In the interplay of geometric balance and softened form—where symmetry meets an airy palette and curved detailing further softens natural light—this kitchen becomes more than functional design. It is a space both masterfully crafted and deliberately orchestrated, with all the quiet majesty of a Elgar symphony.

The clients brief for this large 1930s house was to demolish several internal walls to covert a narrow ‘L’ shaped kitchen into a large open family space. Key client desires included a nook capable of seating the whole family and a functional ‘industrial’ style.
Through a series of computer model presentations, we moved away from a conversion of the existing space developing instead an extension. The resultant large space was separated into a functional kitchen zone and a large nook area housed within a frameless glass bay window.
High quality rich natural materials such as handmade brick and hardwoods were enhanced with hidden natural lighting from above to create a rich, textured and layered look. Inspiration for this brightly lit complex space was drawn from the idea of the ‘Manhattan Loft’.

Right up to minute, this handleless door is sophisticated and beautifully minimalist. The light grey painted finish gives a texture and colour which is smooth and matt. The range includes Plain Glass and Curved doors. The glass doors have a nice bevel feature, rounded in the corners to complement the handle profile. Wide drawer frontals look particularly sleek and maximise accessible storage in any sise of kitchen. Tall wall units will also create extra storage space higher up for items not used regularly.
