How We Approach Kitchen Design
Our kitchen designers don't just make things look pretty – they create functional spaces that work for your lifestyle. Here's what we consider:
Workflow and Layout Design
A well-designed kitchen makes cooking easier and more enjoyable. We carefully plan:
- The "work triangle" between sink, cooker and fridge
- Counter space where you need it most
- Traffic flow through the kitchen
- Connection to dining or living areas
- Access to outdoor spaces where possible
Our designs for terraced houses in Alfreton or detached homes in West Bridgford always maximise the available space while making the kitchen easy to use.
Storage Solutions
No more cluttered worktops or overstuffed cupboards! Our kitchen designs include:
- Deep drawers for pots and pans
- Specialised storage for cutlery and utensils
- Clever corner cabinet solutions
- Pantry systems for food storage
- Custom solutions for awkward spaces
We've designed kitchens for the smallest cottages in Clay Cross to the grandest homes in Beeston, each with smart storage tailored to the space.
Lighting Design
Good lighting transforms how you use your kitchen. We layer different types:
- Task lighting for cooking areas
- Ambient lighting for overall illumination
- Accent lighting to highlight features
- Under-cabinet lighting for worktops
- Statement pendant lights as focal points
Material Selection
We help you choose materials that look great and stand the test of time:
- Durable worktops suited to your cooking habits
- Cabinet finishes that match your maintenance preferences
- Flooring that balances practicality with style
- Splashbacks that protect your walls while adding character
- Hardware that feels good to use every day
