what is a traditional kitchen? |
|
It's
a design that we are always pleased to go back to it is familiar and reassuring. The world changes so fast, it's good to have a base that is unchanging, reliable & pleasing good design and practical construction that has been confirmed by generations It is also about appropriateness, looking right in its surroundings |
| Here
you can see the classic shaker
kitchen, solid beech worktops, butlers sink, little turned wooden knobs and handpainted cream cabinetry. Plate rack and shelving a kitchen that is practical, pleasing to look at, inspires one to cook and is welcoming to all |
| The farmhouse
oak, here seen in a 16th century kitchen, part of our heritage. |
| Another
kitchen was built for a large 1920s house that had a hint of Arts &
Crafts about it. The customer knew exactly what she wanted, explained in about 10 minutes and left me to it. Adding a few details inspired by the style of the house we created a kitchen that could well have been fitted when the house was built |
| The
large Oak
dresser is a fine example of very simple design. The beauty is in the elegant proportions and warm comforting glow of solid oak |
| I
have also included two examples of freestanding furniture. The blue shaker style and the cottage style with its pull-out baskets and glazed lattice doors. . A kitchen is not just a workshop crammed full of endless cupboards. There needs to be space to move around with a cup of coffee or glass of wine, somewhere to display beautiful serving dishes, vases and quirky teapots. Relax a little |
