Ms Dryden - West Bridgford

THE BRIEF

We created this graphite shaker kitchen for a customer in West Bridgford, and we love how the design plays beautifully with dark and light. The dark, bold doors bring a contemporary look to the country kitchen, whilst the white-painted beams allow for balance and create a light, spacious room. The use of pearl Calacatta worktops complement the room perfectly, and the matching materials in the tap, pendants and handles bring an overall warmth and glow to the kitchen.

We love the contrasting tiles behind the hob, which beautifully ties the space together.

DESIGNER'S TIPS

Avoiding dark wall units and opting instead for light open shelving helps to keep the welcoming, open feel of a kitchen.
