Pendant fo kitchen island x 3
The tall cupboards along the left side of this photo house a large American-style fridge-freezer. ‘The doors open up and slot into either side so I can leave it open without them getting in the way,’ Grey explains. There’s also a cupboard for a tea and coffee station. ‘It’s essentially a larder cupboard with a work surface. It’s handy when we don’t have time to clean up – we just shut the door and run out of the house,’ she laughs. ‘It’s another way I keep everything out of sight.’ One of these cupboards is filled with her son’s toys. ‘It’s plastic from floor to ceiling!’The kitchen island sits on ‘enormous casters’ so it can be moved around. ‘I like being able to change the space. We plan to be here for 20 years,’ Grey says. ‘We once hosted an Easter lunch and moved it out of the way so we could have egg and spoon races in here.’ The 1m x 2m unit holds two rubbish bins as well as a recycling bin, pans, cutlery and crockery. It opens from both sides.The garden is an ongoing project for Grey and her partner. ‘After 10 months of building, it’s a bit of a mud pit. We’re investing in plants and gardening.’
