Refurbishment and Restore Issue 14 2019 | Page 26

A showstopping extension Halcyon Interiors' Louise Richardson worked with the owners of this stunning property to create a sleek, but dramatic kitchen that blended with the bold architectural style of this newly extended home. The monolithic design was created using tall cabinets in black, and handleless doors along the entire length of one wall, rising up to meet the sky-light providing clean- lined simplicity and drama. The dark, warm graphite colour adds definition to this room which is naturally flooded with light throughout the day. A matt lacquer for the tall cabinets and subtly textured stone-effect structured laminate for the island, with completely flat quartz worktop, emphasise the simple look. The ceiling is paneled to match the cabinetry for a sleek, continuous ‘up and 26 - www.refurbandrestore.co.uk over’ effect. A ‘letter box’ cut framed the view in front of the picture window and was the ideal location for the sink. A large island to balance the dominance of the full-height cabinetry and to provide space for cooking and food prep completed the sleek look of the design. Flush fit hob and built in ovens render the kitchen both functional and slick. A connected, rustic dining table contrasts with the sleek cabinetry and completes this kitchen with an impressive centerpiece. www.halcyon-interiors.co.uk [email protected] Call us on 020 7486 1248 to make an appointment with a designer.
