Project Overview

Lindsay envisioned a kitchen that would immediately impress with its elegant design while maintaining a warm and inviting atmosphere. She gravitated towards a colour scheme that paired rich, dark hues with gentle, lighter tones to achieve a harmonious and balanced look. Her goal was to create a space that exudes subtle luxury, seamlessly blending timeless design features with contemporary practicality to ensure both style and comfort.

Design Highlights

Designing Lindsay’s ideal kitchen focused on merging elegance with a welcoming ambience. The cabinetry was finished in Farrow & Ball’s Studio Green, offering a rich and sophisticated depth, while light quartz surfaces and soft wall tones introduced contrast and a sense of brightness.

To elevate the design, we incorporated gold handles from Buster + Punch alongside coordinating pendant lighting, adding a hint of luxury and a modern twist to the classic aesthetic. Warmth and texture were brought in through EdenClay’s herringbone wood flooring, creating a timeless foundation that ties the entire space together.

“I’m over the moon with my new kitchen. The bar area with the wine cooler is an absolute highlight and has quickly become my favourite part of the space, especially when entertaining guests. The entire process was seamless, with excellent communication throughout and a clear commitment to quality at every stage. I couldn’t have asked for a more skilled and dedicated team.”
