Large, open plan kitchen

Our clients came to us for help designing their dream home, a large, open plan kitchen with a gorgeous view of the River Hamble.

They wanted a modern look which would bring the outside in with fresh, light colours and wooden tones.  We looked at handle-less kitchens with sleek, square lines and they became particular fans of Crittall style doors. A Hafele black gola profile for the handle-less rail would help to carry this style through. They also wanted modern, floating shelving which would require concealed shelf support.

We needed to create ambient lighting in multiple areas of the kitchen. They required different angles of lighting and colours to match cabinets. This included a slimline black, and a slimline silver loox profile. We were able to seamlessly match the same Loox lighting into different profiles down to the finest detail with matching end caps.

We specifically chose the Loox 5 lighting system for its dimmable features. These were compatible with the customers bespoke, touch free lighting system. A door sensor switch would ensure easy use and automation of their lights.

Our design fulfilled the customers’ aim of bringing together their dining, lounge and kitchen space to create one connected open plan area. We achieved this by tying in the rear seating on the back of the island with their 300 year old oak and resin feature dining table. There is also Halifax Oak tied in throughout the whole house.
