Herne Hill

This modern kitchen was designed for an extention to a house in Herne Hill in collaboration with architects. The kitchen has since been featured in living etc magazine Feb 07 issue. The neutral colour pallet and clean lines give this kitchen understated style.

The run of units both under the sky light and behind the Chinese cabinet have a spray painted finish colour matched to Dulux Heron. The contrasting gaps between the draws were designed to draw the eye and to create a unique feature along the run of units. The appliances were sourced and supplied by the client.

The client chose worktops in Italian Verdie Ardesie green limestone with fossils. These look perfect against the pale colours and balance the dark plinths at the bottom of the units. The worktop opposite was bespoke made in stainless steel with an integral recessed double sink and splashback.

As part of the kitchen specification Ian also designed and made the bespoke free standing Chinese cabinet. It is constructed of Pippy Oak Veneer which has a beautiful symmetrical grain. The design also provided housing for the fridge/freezer and useful open shelving for display purposes. We also sourced the simple small handles finished in bronze.
