The kitchen is a stunning fusion of contemporary and industrial design. Black shaker cabinets lend a sleek, modern feel, while a custom range hood stands out as a unique centerpiece. Open shelving adds character and showcases decorative items against a backdrop of a vaulted wood-lined ceiling, infusing warmth. The island, with seating for four, serves as a social hub and practical workspace. A discreet walk-in pantry offers ample storage, keeping the kitchen organized and pristine. This space seamlessly combines style and functionality, making it the heart of the home. Martin Bros.

This stunning modern extension in Harrogate incorporates an existing Victorian brick wall, giving a warehouse feel to this open plan kitchen with a dining and living area. The exposed brick wall adds texture and sits harmoniously with the simple rectangular glass table lantern. Dark cabinets painted in Basalt by Little Green, makes the units feel industrial, the vintage scrub top table painted in the same colour as the units add character. The kitchens simple brass handles are practical yet elegant, enhancing the warehouse-style and almost adds a pinch of glamour. The bank of wall cupboards house a larder, tall fridge and ends with a countertop pantry cupboard with folding doors plus more cupboard space above. The lower runs have a mix of drawers and cupboard which also house an integrated dishwasher and bin. White Silestone worktops lift the look and the traditional natural oak parquet flooring give texture and warmth to the room, which leads through to a family sitting room. Large oak glass doors look towards beautifully manicured gardens and bring the outdoors indoors. Christopher designed the kitchen with our client Francesca to achieve a great space for family life and entertaining.

The clients brief for this large 1930s house was to demolish several internal walls to covert a narrow ‘L’ shaped kitchen into a large open family space. Key client desires included a nook capable of seating the whole family and a functional ‘industrial’ style. Through a series of computer model presentations, we moved away from a conversion of the existing space developing instead an extension. The resultant large space was separated into a functional kitchen zone and a large nook area housed within a frameless glass bay window. High quality rich natural materials such as handmade brick and hardwoods were enhanced with hidden natural lighting from above to create a rich, textured and layered look. Inspiration for this brightly lit complex space was drawn from the idea of the ‘Manhattan Loft’.

L'espace repas offre également un beau plan de travail. Le réfrigérateur a pris place dans l'arrière cuisine afin de libérer de l'espace. Une porte dans l'esprit industriel réalisée sur mesure et faisant écho à la verrière permet d'accéder à l'arrière cuisine.
