Bespoke kitchen design

A kitchen is the hardest-working room in the home and often its centrepiece. We design kitchens around how you cook and gather, then detail every cabinet, worktop, appliance and light so the result is both calm and practical.

What is included

Designed around the way you cook

We begin with questions: who cooks, how often, for how many people and with which appliances. A family that bakes every weekend needs a different kitchen from a couple who mostly entertain. From the answers we plan the zones for storage, preparation, cooking and cleaning, and the distances between them.

Stone, wood and details

The worktop is the most visible surface of a kitchen. We help you choose a material by its look, its resistance to stains and heat, and how it ages. Edges, sink joints, splashbacks and the way stone meets cabinetry are drawn in detail, so the fabricator and the joiner work to the same dimensions.

Storage that stays tidy

Tall pantry units, deep drawers, hidden bins, a place for small appliances behind pocket doors: the calm of a luxury kitchen comes from storage planned in advance. We draw the interior of every cabinet, not only its front.

Kitchen design only, or installed

You can order the kitchen design and have it made by your own joiner, or we can coordinate the works or deliver the kitchen as part of a turnkey project. We also design kitchens as a single-room project within an otherwise finished home.

Questions

Can I order only a kitchen design?

Yes. You receive a layout, visualisations, technical drawings for the joiner and installer, and a specification of worktops, appliances and hardware.

Which worktop material is best?

There is no single best material. We compare the options for your use: how much you cook, how you clean and how much patina you are happy to live with.

Do you work with kitchen manufacturers?

Yes. The kitchen can be made by a joinery workshop or by a kitchen manufacturer of your choice.

Can you fit a kitchen island in my space?

It depends on clearances around the island and the position of services. We check this at the layout stage.

Do you plan the kitchen lighting too?

Yes. Task, ambient and accent lighting are part of every kitchen design.
