The open-plan kitchen space has a beautiful aspect , with doors opening onto a terrace , which was also made over as part of the project . To brighten the space a neutral colour palette was used , with the wall units sprayed in ‘ Strong White ’. The homeowners grew up near the sea and these memories are important to them so they loved the idea of adding a flash of blue to the island . After looking at multiple blue options , ‘ Hague Blue ’ was selected as it created a nice statement and paired well with the beading on the joinery .
Previously , the kitchen cabinets were a dark grey lacquer and were the first thing to go . “ They are a really warm , loving family who spend a lot of time together and absolutely love to cook , so it was important to make the kitchen a social space ,” says Samantha . The kitchen was still in good condition so Samantha worked with Koldo & Co , who designed , manufactured and installed the kitchen , to retain what they could . The carcasses were given a new lease of life with replacement doors , and as the homeowner loves classical detailing a design with prominent beading was selected . The oak flooring was sanded to strip back the yellow tones and finished with a greyish stain .
