This stunning kitchen project in Dulwich perfectly balances timeless tradition and modern-day functionality. Designed with both elegance and practicality in mind, it showcases exquisite craftsmanship and thoughtful attention to detail throughout.
The in-frame cabinetry features classic Shaker-style doors, constructed with an 18mm oak veneer carcass and finished with beech doors. Inside, solid oak dovetailed drawer boxes glide smoothly on soft-close runners, combining strength with luxury.
All of the cabinetry has been painted in Pink Ground by Farrow & Ball - a soft, warm tone that brings a welcoming and subtly romantic feel to the space. Antique brass knobs and cup handles add a layer of traditional charm and timeless character.
The worktops and splashback are finished in 20mm Calacatta Gold quartz, which adds a touch of luxury with its distinctive veining and polished finish while offering exceptional durability for everyday use.
Premium appliances are seamlessly integrated, including a 90cm Fisher & Paykel American-style fridge freezer, a NEFF steam oven, a NEFF micro-combi oven, and an induction hob. A classic Butler sink paired with a Quooker tap enhances both style and function, while a Caple wine fridge positioned in the island makes entertaining a breeze.
This kitchen is a beautiful reflection of how classic design and contemporary living can come together in perfect harmony.

An expansive open-plan yet traditionally styled kitchen, with a mix of rich warm wood soft cream tones.
A wide range cooker sits amongst a row of base units, beneath a tiled backsplash and huge wood mantle. At the centre, a large kitchen island features wicker basket drawers, butcher block worktop and farmhouse-style integrated sink with a brass tap. To one side, a window seat offers a cozy nook beneath a window, and to the other a large set of cream cabinets bends around the corner displaying a collection of vintage decorative ceramics. Behind the tall cream units, a small pantry is designed with ample storage within easy reach.
The project is filled with small architectural details and examples of traditional craftmanship to fulfil the desired ambience, all while integrated appliances afford no sacrifice of modern convenience.

Glass pendant lights shimmer above, accentuating the room’s balance of texture and light.

We had a tight timeline to turn a dark, outdated kitchen into a modern, family-friendly space that could function as the hub of the home. We enlarged the footprint of the kitchen by changing the orientation and adding an island for better circulation. We swapped out old tile flooring for durable luxury vinyl tiles, dark wood panels for fresh drywall, outdated cabinets with modern Semihandmade ones, and added brand new appliances. We made it modern and warm by adding matte tiles from Heath, new light fixtures, and an open shelf of beautiful ceramics in cool neutrals.

Bathed in natural light, this English Cottage kitchen addition honors the charm of the home’s 1938 architecture while perfectly framing sweeping garden views. From the apron-front farm sink, you look straight through the garden arch into the shade garden and orchard beyond, a daily reminder of the home’s idyllic garden.
The kitchen’s flow creates a natural gathering place for family and loved ones, sitting just off the living room and anchored by a custom island modeled after an antique dairy table. Its classic turned legs and warm wood give the island a timeless, heirloom charm. Deep drawers generously accommodate pots and pans, while a clever rollout above stores lids neatly in place, making every piece easy to find. A bespoke glass-front hutch in a soft greige accent color showcases the homeowners’ collected antique serveware treasures, adding both contrast and personality.
To give the space a sense of grandeur, the ceiling was raised a foot higher than the rest of the home. Tongue-and-groove paneling and hand-hewn beams lend a feeling of intention and history to the added height. Arched openings—echoing the home’s original architecture—frame the breakfast nook, dining room, and entry to the living room.
The breakfast nook itself is pure cottage charm, with built-in bench seating, a replicated arched niche for display, and a view that invites cozy mornings and quiet evenings. An antique crystal chandelier hangs above the island, each crystal catching and giving a special sparkle, while a leaded diamond-glass transom gracefully frames the entry to the butler’s pantry.
Custom inset cabinetry brings nostalgic detail, complemented by unlacquered brass hardware and lighting. A French-made bridge faucet and pot filler in polished nickel introduce a refined mix of metals. The classic marble-inspired quartz countertops pair seamlessly with a handmade ceramic subway tile backsplash, while the Italian Ilve range stands as both a culinary tool and a statement piece.
Every inch of this kitchen is designed for beauty and purpose, from integrated storage that keeps everything in its place to architectural details that make it feel as if it has always been part of this storybook English cottage.

Custom Kitchen with granite island and quartzite perimeter with thin brick backsplash.

If you fear that a variety of materials and colors will look “too busy”, then consider this masterpiece of mixed elements that created a warm, rich, and layered one-of-a kind environment. Custom cabinetry combines frameless full overlay with flush inset construction; doors are both Shaker and slab. While most of the perimeter is lightly-stained rift cut white oak, the island and paneled backsplashes are Farrow & Ball’s “School House White”; the hutch is their pale blue-gray “Pigeon”. Two styles of Honey Bronze hardware comingle with the hutch’s simple polished nickel knobs. Open hutch shelves are rift cut oak; their gallery rails are brass. Faucets are polished nickel and the island pendant is aged iron.
Even the countertops display variation: the sink wall, cooking nook and hutch are “Bianco Extra” marble, 2” thick with waterfall ends at the sink; 2” thick slabs with standard overhangs at the rangetop; and a thinner slab with traditional ogee edges on the hutch. Offering contrast on the island is 2” thick honed and leathered “Jet Mist” granite.
The charming vent hood incorporates a scalloped detail and more oak. Slender furniture legs enhance the hutch, while 4” brass cuffs on the square island legs add sparkle.

A Somerset Kitchen. Small, so the family went with cosy; a long, low cladded ceiling, deep sink and a tidy arrangement of Open Slatted Shelves and cupboards, all while letting the warm light pour in from the garden. An Aga makes for a central hub, and treasured finds dot the space.
