“A bold artistic expression, it radiates a unique and inimitable charm that captivates at first glance.”
Set within a charming period property in the village of Shillington, Hertfordshire, this kitchen was designed to capture the romance, colour, and character of our clients’ time spent in Italy. Their love for the country and the many memories made there became the driving inspiration for this warm, vibrant, and timeless space.
Opting for our In-Frame Shaker cabinetry, the clients embraced its classic proportions and enduring style, having it hand-painted in Farrow & Ball Cooks Blue – a vivid hue reminiscent of the Mediterranean, chosen to perfectly complement the magnificent Smeg x Dolce & Gabbana Range Cooker. The cabinetry is elevated further with Hendel & Hendel Belgravia polished nickel handles, offering a refined and timeless finishing touch.
The kitchen follows an L-shaped layout anchored by a central rectangular island, complete with an elevated solid oak breakfast bar stained in Rubio Cotton White – the ideal gathering spot for casual dining or morning coffee.
The Smeg x Dolce & Gabbana Range Cooker and matching extractor hood form the heart of the design, turning cooking into a work of art. This limited-edition collaboration celebrates all things Made in Italy, featuring the Divina Cucina collection’s bold colours and intricate patterns inspired by Sicilian majolica ceramicware. The Chimney Hood proudly wears the vibrant Dolce & Gabbana print, making it a true statement piece and a fitting tribute to our client’s love for Italian culture and cuisine.
Alongside the statement range, the kitchen is equipped with Premium NEFF integrated appliances, including a fridge freezer and dishwasher, as well as a Caple Wine Cooler and Caple Microwave, all positioned for convenience.
The sink run features a Shaws Shaker double bowl paired with a Perrin & Rowe Phoenician widespread mixer with rinse in pewter, and a Quooker Nordic Round in stainless steel for instant boiling water. And not forgetting the bespoke over-window mantle that seamlessly connects the cabinetry, with integrated LED lighting adding both practical illusions and a refined design detail.
All surfaces are finished in Dekton Malibu, a porcelain worktop that brings a fresh, modern look, both stylish and durable, to this Italian-inspired hub.
Additional touches include a coffee station with reeded glass-fronted doors and jars filled with rich Italian coffee, and the tall, slim pantry cupboard is discreet yet provides generous storage. There are also deep drawers with custom inserts, a corner Le Mans, and a pull-out unit for cooking oils and spices.
This kitchen tells a beautiful story of the Mediterranean, bringing a slice of this into a quintessentially English home.

Our design featured a contemporary circular swim zone, surrounded by a concentric ring of regeneration zone on one side, bordered with a geometrically aligned deck. The pool utilises a hybrid filtration system, giving it the tranquil beauty of water plants while the biological filter takes care of most of the hard work. A marginal shelf of native perennials seamlessly transitions into a gravel garden surrounding the pool.
The deck, made from Brimstone ash, cleverly hides access hatches to the filtration system beneath. For the pool’s edge, we selected sawn sandstone coping with a soft bullnose finish, creating a contemporary yet elegant border where the swim zone meets the gravel garden. These clean lines give the circular pool a modern, polished look.
Positioned like a perfect lens of water within the garden, the pool complements the contemporary design of the property. It reflects the surrounding mature birch trees and the dramatic hues of the sunset, and is visible from every viewpoint in the house, making it the focal point of the landscape.

Master bedroom in an Edwardian Family Home in North London. We reconfigured the space and widened the chimney breast to accommodate a Superking bed for a boutique hotel feel.

This study room was created by removing a wall and replacing it with Crittall style folding glass doors opening up the space making it feel much larger. We built wall to wall, floor to ceiling bookcases for the client's many books and created a faux fireplace painted to look like black marble. A large white silk lamp shade hangs from the ceiling. A Gallery wall of art work and a mid century burnt orange wingback chair complete the room.

A calming and contemporary yet classic renovation to this existing living room with original period features, such as a cornice and traditional fireplace. The existing floors were sanded and stained to retain the natural grain, and a paint - plaster hybrid material was applied to the walls up to a natural picture rail line. The wall finish is textured thus creates movement of light across its surface. The alcove units and the coffee table are also bespoke and designed in house by Studio Hallett Ike.

The bathroom is a compact space with low ceilings, so I wanted to make it feel as light and airy as possible. I kept the colours natural, adding texture and special luxurious touches with the terrazzo, sheer curtain, fluted glass, and tiles. These rich but subtle details catch your eye, making the room feel bigger.
The green glazed shower tiles pick up on the specks in the terrazzo floor tiles, and the Carrara marble skirting board adds luxury and creates another level of finish.
I specified ABI Interiors matching brassware. Their electric heated individual towel rails can be turned on and off whenever you need them to save energy. The shower controls are located just outside the shower enclosure, so you can turn the shower on in advance and let it warm up a little before you enter.
To maximise storage, I included an Aqua Roc basin with drawers underneath. The Carrara marble ledge and Tika Moon walnut wall unit provide even more space for my clients to stash things away.
The freestanding bath and circular Spark and Bell wall lights add softness and curves. The sheer curtain is mounted on a wave track to give a lovely, rippled effect.

To brighten and warm the room, the ceiling between the lower ground floor and the ground floor was removed, allowing the south-facing light to flow through the front of the house. A sculptural staircase was added to connect the living room and the hallway.

This Edinburgh Extension used the existing structure and built onto it to create a new study at the 1st floor level. We created a floating desk supported by shelving on one side and floating fixings and brackets on the other. The wood is oak veneered MDF with solid oak lippings. It is finished in Osmo polyx oil in Raw to maintain the light colour. We specified the Astro 'Atelier' series for the lighting.
