BATHROOMS & KITCHENS
THE HARDWARE
In both the kitchen and the utility , a combination of pull handles and knobs in a satin brass finish were used creating a sense of continuity .
These unique and custom made knobs and pulls feature a knurled detail adding texture and a slightly industrial element to the space .
We asked what made our clients settle on the colours and hardware they chose , they said :
“ We love the warmth of brass and it tied in with the brass features throughout the rest of the house ( light switches , plug sockets , door knobs etc .), and the Sparkbrook handles with their bevelling felt fun and worked with the colours we chose . We had a pretty clear idea that we wanted a deep green kitchen , but the idea of bringing in the yellow came about because we felt that we needed something that really ' popped ' in the space and became a standalone feature . I think David nailed it with the dresser !! We liked that you don ' t see too many green kitchens ( though perhaps that is changing !), and the yellow is just fun and never fails to make us smile . For our utility / cloakroom , given it ' s on the small side , David suggested that we kept it simple , painting it the same colour as the kitchen walls ( Little Greene Paint Company , Rusling ), making the spaces flow and feel cohesive .”
THE WORKSHOP
Last year , not only did we grow as a team significantly , but we also opened up our very own workshop right here in Canterbury , only a 10 minute drive from the studio . Each kitchen , utility , bootroom or dressing room is tailor made for you and your space by our amazing team of talented joiners
in our Canterbury workshop . We are incredibly proud of what we create together and love to share the process with our clients . If you would like to see your kitchen being made , please speak to your designer about arranging a visit to the workshop !
We asked Jeremy & Isobel what their favourite part of their new kitchen was , they said :
“ Sitting at the kitchen island and looking across at the whole space ! The individual choices such as the yellow dresser , marble shelves , larder and island , all come together to make it a truly wonderful space that we could not be happier with .”
ON USING HERRINGBONE
We ’ re so lucky and proud of all of the wonderful feedback we receive from our clients , and this project was no exception . This is what our clients had to say :
“ From start to finish ( and beyond !), the Herringbone team has been incredible . David is a star and we really have him to thank for making this kitchen come to life . We knew from our first meeting that we were working with a company who really mean it when they say they are bespoke . All the fitters who were involved were fantastic , friendly , professional , and always happy to go the extra mile to make things happen . Our main fitter Tony was incredibly cheerful , professional and able to guide us on the small but frequent decisions that can sometimes get lost in a big project . They all worked hard to ensure we were in our home in time for Christmas - thank you !”
