This kitchen started life as a cold, dark basement / coalhole.

After design and initial construction work including the creation of two new window openings came the detailed work of transformimg the space into a modern fully insulated kitchen.

The design features include built in dishwasher and fridge freezer, spice rack, cookery bookshelves and worktop backings with shelf.

A box section runs around the whole ceiling to conceal plumbing and electrics but also houses spot lighting. The original ceiling beams were retained.

Materials - cabinets and cupboards in painted wood. Worktops and backings are ceramic. Trim is in oak with a black inlay.
