Award-winning Roundhouse Urbo bespoke kitchen with book-matched Oak veneer on the island and hammered silver metal finish on the sink and range run. Worktops, 12mm stainless steel with seamless welded LAB sinks and on the island and either side of the range 65mm cast in-situ concrete. Photography by Nick Kane.

Nestled within an unusually shaped room, this kitchen was designed to embrace the client’s love for ornamentation over austerity. Every surface and detail was considered to celebrate individuality and craftsmanship, transforming spatial awkwardness into charm and character. Off-white in-frame cabinetry features shaker doors with unique decorative grooving, with glazed units styled with custom muntins and wallpapered interiors. Exposed butt hinges and an eclectic collection of ornate latches, handles, and knobs are each in matching antique brass, both open cabinets and serve as the kitchen’s jewellery. A 40mm solid oak burled worktop, finished in Danish oil, wraps gracefully around the room, paired with painted tongue-and-groove panelling that rises as a traditional painted backsplash. The layout revolves around a small central dining table, allowing for easy movement within and through the space. At its heart stands a blue Vougeot ‘Classic’ Lacanche range, striking against the neutral cabinetry, with an induction top and multifunction oven. The range is paired with a large bespoke canopy above with built-in storage, as well as a utensil rack and a pot filler tap. The Belfast sink is sat beneath a picture window for admiring the back garden, and is flanked by solid-wood cutlery drawers, pullout bins, with a discreetly integrated Fisher & Paykel single-drawer dishwasher tucked into the opposite corner. Rather than balancing practicality and aesthetics, practicality bows to personality in the design of this kitchen. The client’s affinity for decoration over minimalism animates every shelf and surface—cherished mementos, framed pictures, and ceramics proudly populate the countertops, open shelving and window cill. While the oak worktop invites and rewards the touch of fingertips across its burls and catspaws, each brass latch, handle and knob offers a unique handshake. Cabinet interiors continue this devotion to traditional detailing, featuring friction-fit drawers, solid wood cutlery inserts, spice organisers, and slanted wine displays. The finished kitchen feels intimate, storied, and unapologetically personal, a celebration of craftsmanship and collected charm. What began as an awkward space has become a characterful haven, layered with texture, warmth, and the unmistakable imprint of its owner.

A renovator’s dream with a previous life as a Rectory and care home. On top of the hill, the front of the building remains untouched with delicate restoration work to enhance the original beauty. The back of the building once contained two wings with a rich and plentiful history which have since been removed and renovated into the magnificent window feature where a Sustainable Kitchen sits proud.

Barlow and Barlow Build created this industrial style, stainless steel kitchen with concrete worktop. The use of mast wall lights to skim light down the exposed brick wall brings out the texture. Floor lights are used to add a low-level lighting.

Photo of a large rustic u-shaped open plan kitchen in Other with a belfast sink, shaker cabinets, grey cabinets, wood worktops, white splashback, ceramic splashback, stainless steel appliances and an island.

The white wall above the extra tall splash back breaks up the brown of the oak. The custom made patinated brass sink works well with the handles and tap.

Even the stairway from outdoors into the open plan kitchen has been carefully designed to blend into the kitchens multi-tonal tiles.

This is a multi-purpose outdoor room with use as a dining area, games room, gym and home pub! The dark open barn was redesigned with four skylights, ceiling insulation, outdoor log store, new access doors and a stone floor. New French doors were added to make it a full enclosure - the pizza oven and indoor barbecue grill, store cupboard and sink cabinet comprising a full working kitchen
