KITCHENS & BATHROOMS
" As frequent entertainers they also wished for a large dining space which then flowed into the traditional living room ."
The colours and the surround panels for the kitchen tall units were mirrored on the sideboard and TV areas to ensure the room flowed . The mirrored splashback was used on the sideboard and sink run areas to reflect the views from the windows and bring the outdoors into the room . Silestone worktops in white Arabesque complemented the design .
It ’ s often the finer details and little extras that can make a kitchen . In this home Kyle designed glass units on the dining room sideboard area to provide a display area for the client ’ s unique crockery . This area also had to double up as a drinks area , so a drinks fridge was installed behind one of the base unit doors .
Surrounding the tall units and the TV unit in the living room , thick Stoneham Ebony contrasting panels were selected as a special feature . Lighting up the room are clever lighting panels beneath the breakfast bar which highlights the grain of the wood and this impressive breakfast bar design .
And the verdict ? Kyle adds : “ I love this design and would choose a similar one for my own house ! The clients are equally pleased and say that we have created a stunning space , but at the same time have created a very practical working kitchen .”
