Traditional Raised Shaker – Kensington, London
Traditional Raised Shaker – Kensington, London
Handmade Kitchen CoHandmade Kitchen Co
Situated just south of Kensington Palace and Gardens (one of the most prestigious locations in London), we find this lovely slim U-shaped kitchen full of style and beauty. Smaller in size but the sleek lines are still evident in this project within the tall cornices and external skirting. We loved working in this stately Victorian building! Our client’s luxury bespoke kitchen journey began with a visit to The Handmade Kitchen Co showroom. The couple were able to see the exquisite quality of our furniture for themselves which would provide them with a unique and personal space that would be loved for many years to come. Our client wanted to showcase their impeccably good taste and opted for our Traditional Raised shaker. It has been highlighted with a black paint hand-painted onto the cabinets known as Black Beauty by Benjamin Moore. It’s a rich shade of black with a hint of warmth. Versatile and sophisticated, black is a colour that can enhance any style of home, whether cosy or chic, soft or bold. Incorporating black paint, whether subtly or boldly, can make a significant impact on interior design. This kitchen isn’t just a culinary experience but is designed to make memories with loved ones in the space they call the heart of the home. Enhancing the cooking journey is the Rangemaster Classic Deluxe 110cm Dual Fuel Range Cooking in Black & Brass Trim which has been put alongside the cutting-edge Westin Prime extractor. Having a clear direction of how our clients wanted their kitchen style, they opted for a Nivito Brass sink, Quooker PRO3 Fusion Round Tap in Gold & Quooker Cube and a Quooker Soak Dispenser in Gold. All three items instantly add grandeur to the space, while maintaining a balanced and understated presence. To offset the boldness of the Black Beauty cabinetry, the Calacatta Viola Marble Honed worktops provide a striking contrast with their pristine polished finish. This juxtaposition creates a visually captivating and inviting kitchen space. The intricate features make up the kitchen design and the ones in this space are the decorative cornices and the Armac Martin ‘Bakes’ cabinet handles in burnished brass. Throughout this London townhouse, there was beautiful scribing in each room. Our client wanted it to flow nicely throughout the whole property and added it to the rooms we designed – the kitchen and bedroom. Adding to the theme and grandeur of the building, these decorative cornices look beautiful amongst the high ceilings.

Артистический интерьер для яркой пары. Общие параметры: Тип недвижимости: Квартира в доме 1956 года. Где находится (если не секрет): Москва, Соколиная Гора Метраж: 80 м2 Стиль (как бы вы его сами определили): Артистический интерьер Основная идея проекта: создать яркое артистичное пространство с множеством деталей, подчеркивающее характер его владельцев. Цветовая гамма: смешанная гамма, композиция теплых и холодных оттенков. 1. Особенности планировки. В квартире имеется спальня с эркером, гостиная и отдельная кухня. До перепланировки помещения были мало освещенными и тесными. За счёт объединения гостиной и кухни, а также цветовой палитры удалось создать достаточно светлый, жизнерадостный интерьер. Кухню с подведенным газом, как и требуют правила, отделили от гостиной герметичной перегородкой. В квартире присутствует помещение, в котором находится законсервированный мусоропровод, который не удалось удалить, без согласования всех жильцов дома, а их, к слову, оказалось не мало (в 135 квартирах). В итоге в этой комнате расположился гардероб и дополнительные места для хранения. Прихожая продолжается длинным коридором, имеющим большой шкаф с множеством мест для хранения одежды и костюмов, которые наши герои создают для музыкальных фестивалей. С противоположной стороны расположен вход в спальню 2. Если можно, пару слов о заказчиках. Основные пожелания заказчиков. Владельцы квартиры – творческие и неординарные молодые люди, приобрели себе квартиру площадью 80 м2 в доме 1956 года, которая отчаянно требовала ремонта. Ребята круто играют на гитарах, ежегодно участвуют в музыкальных фестивалях и фестивалях Burning Man, а еще успешно занимаются созданием световых инсталляций. Заказчики в первую очередь хотели создать необычное пространство, которое вдохновляло бы их на творческие порывы и отражало их внутренние миры. 3. Какие декораторские и архитектурные приемы вы использовали в оформлении этого интерьера. Особую атмосферу при входе в спальню создают парадные двустворчатые двери, которые привносят особую эстетику и дополняют образ спальни. Пол и фартук в кухне декорированы орнаментом английской плитки, которая напоминает советскую. Спальня светлая, свежая и яркая, как и ее обитатели. Цветовая гамма - чистые ясные оттенки голубого и синего. В изголовье кровати Обои с узором по мотивам керамики местечка Кап-д’Ай, что на юго-востоке Франции, который символизирует слияние неба и земли на растительном фоне, как слияние мужского и женского. Растительный мотив поддерживает кровать и тумбы из природных материалов. Интерьер наполнен предметами искусства, которые придали пространству лёгкие ироничные нотки. Чтобы шкаф в гостиной не выглядел просто шкафом, на его фасадах мы расположили печатную графику и декор, теперь он напоминает больше стеновые панели, нежели гардероб. 4. У меня в голове возникла история. Жизнь, как игра, она жонглирует разными событиями, ситуациями, а мы всегда учимся поймать и отреагировать на то или иное. Весь интерьер, как заказчики - активный и наполнен адреналином. В интерьере много цветного стекла, совсем как шарики жонглера, а скульптура Льва Ефимова (синие пенящиеся шары) словно символ пойманных и сложенных воедино пойманных моментов и впечатлений. Литография на стене — это ещё один символ легкости бытия и позитивного отношения к жизни. Дизайнерские светильники в гостиной — это отражение легкости мысли. А скульптура в спальне на подоконнике, говорит о течении времени и каждый раз просыпаясь утром, возникает понимание, что жизнь течёт и нужно наслаждаться ей и стремиться сделать много нового и с любовью, нового и вместе. «Вместе» — это о литографии в прихожей «Поцелуй». Эта работа, с входа в квартиру говорит о гармонии и ярких отношениях пары, а скульптура на консоли из стекла вторит этой работе, красное и голубое стекло сплелось в единую композицию. На мой взгляд - эти две работы из разных эпох, а словно созданы друг для друга. 5. Самым важным в этом проекте было вдохнуть вторую жизнь в обветшалое и сало похожее на жилище пространство. Впервые попав на объект, мы даже не знали за что схватиться первым делом. Задачи были повсюду, начиная от мусоропровода в середине квартиры и заканчивая стенами, которые были в шатком состоянии. 6. В каждом помещении есть акценты и образующие интерьер конструкции, например в кухне-гостиной это перегородка из стекла, которая выглядит легко, но в то же время зонирует пространство. В спальне акцент на эркер, это первое что понравилось в квартире, когда мы зашли, много света из окон большой плюс особенно зимой.

U-shaped Kitchen with Engineered Quartz Splashback Ideas and Designs

Want to discover beautiful kitchen ideas to inspire your new kitchen design? You’ve come to the right place. You can discover millions of kitchen designs and ideas; from kitchen islands and storage units, to all sorts of kitchen lighting ideas, such as pendant lighting or under cabinet lighting. Whether you want inspiration for all-in-one fitted kitchen designs, some small kitchen ideas or maybe just some tips for improving your kitchen decor, there are tons of photos to inspire you for your next kitchen project on Houzz.

What kind of kitchen design should I go for?

With so many kitchen ideas and photos to look at you might be a bit overwhelmed when it comes to picking your own kitchen design. If you are updating your kitchen you know what a big and important decision it is to get the design right – the kitchen can be the hub and heart of the home, and it’s unlikely that you would invest in renovating your kitchen again in a few years. But fear not, focusing first on the important elements like layout, cabinet style, worktops and appliances will help you to bring together your dream kitchen design. Additional elements like kitchen lighting, cupboard storage and decor can come after in the kitchen planning process. A kitchen designer or fitter can help you to decide the layout of your kitchen in terms of where to place your kitchen units, appliances and island (if you’re having one), but if you prefer to handle this yourself you can focus on where you want your key elements of your kitchen to be – the oven, hob, sink and fridge. Of course you might be constricted by space, but try to envisage the easiest and most efficient layout based on how you usually like to cook and prepare your food. If you’re fed up of always having to carry dirty pans and pots across the room to the sink, place the sink closer to your oven and hob. Once you have the core elements sorted, consider extra layout considerations, such as where your bins will be stored, where the cutlery draw should be and where small kitchen appliances can be installed.

Should I include a kitchen island?

Kitchen island ideas are abundant these days; it seems most kitchen designs include a kitchen island, if not multiple islands. However, if the layout doesn’t work, especially if you have a small kitchen, then there’s no necessity to add in a kitchen island. You can add a breakfast bar or counter to your existing kitchen units, or stick with a good old-fashioned dining table if you don’t need the extra work surfaces. That said, if you do have the room, take a look at some kitchen island ideas to see if the designs inspire you for your kitchen. There are a huge variety of island designs to cater to different needs – you can have sinks, ovens, hobs, wine storage and all sorts of drawers and organisers built-in, you can have separate bars and counters that extend from your island, or you could go for a kitchen island on wheels to make your kitchen layout more versatile.

How do I choose my kitchen units and cabinets?

When picking out kitchen units and cupboard styles for a fitted kitchen, you’ll first want to consider the more practical questions – how many units do you need? How many cupboards and drawers do you need? Do you need extra kitchen storage built into your units? It’s always best to overestimate how much kitchen storage you’ll need as we all tend to have a habit of filling up whatever current space we have to the maximum. Next you can consider kitchen cabinet style and colour. Shaker style cabinets and raised and recessed panel cabinets offer a more traditional kitchen cabinet look, while flat panel cabinet doors tend to lend more to the modern and contemporary style. However, going for raised or recessed panel work in a striking colour such as dark blue, green or black can still work with contemporary kitchen ideas. White kitchens can give a sleek and clean feel, but remember you may have to do a bit more cleaning of those cupboard doors if you want everything to stay shiny and fresh. Of course, grey kitchens are the neutral colour choice du jour and can be paired with pale and rich shades alike if you want your fitted kitchen cupboards to contrast with your worktop, splashback, floor, or all of the above. Exposed shelving and storage is also popular for eclectic, Scandi and industrial-inspired looks, so you could opt for glass-fronted cabinets or no wall-mounted cabinets at all. Remember that this will require more restraint in what you can store and more effort in keeping it looking presentable compared to what is stored away hastily behind cupboard doors. The kitchen cupboard handles are also another element to decide upon – do you want traditional round knobs, modern metal bars, country kitchen cup handles or maybe to go ultra sleek with a completely handleless kitchen?

What kitchen storage ideas should I consider?

If you want to keep your kitchen well-stocked and well-equipped but don’t want it spilling over with clutter, then you’ll need to rely on good kitchen storage. Apart from the usual fitted kitchen cupboards and drawer space, there are many other ways of keeping your kitchen tidy. Whilst a large kitchen pantry is the dream of most homeowners, it can’t always be a reality. However, there are now lots of pull out compartments and drawers with trays and shelving that can act as mini kitchen pantries, and you can install handy cupboard organisers that fit onto the inside of the door to make the most of your cupboard space. You can also look at corner drawers and cupboards that open up to reveal lots of extra storage. Rails or small shelves along your kitchen walls or splashback can help with hanging utensils or pans, or storing small items like herbs and spices in an usually empty space.

Are there small kitchen ideas for small spaces?

If you’re working with a galley kitchen, a one-wall kitchen in an open plan space or just a pretty small kitchen, there are some small kitchen ideas that can help you get the most out of your cooking and dining area. If you find that you don’t utilise the back of your cupboards (maybe they become the graveyard for out-of-date tin cans), you could decide to go with shallower kitchen units to free up some extra floor space in front of your cabinets. As mentioned, open shelving or glass-fronted cabinets are a popular trend and they should make the space feel more open and less boxed-in. However, if you have the capacity for it, cupboards and kitchen units that maximise the floor-to-ceiling space you have will mean you can use all of that for valuable kitchen storage. Wall or ceiling racks could be a useful solution for hanging pans and pots if you’ve run out of cupboards in which to store them. Kitchen ideas and accessories such as baskets, trolleys and storage jars are both aesthetically pleasing and practical as they give you extra storage space. Kitchen appliances like a fridge or dishwasher can be tucked away in built-in units in fitted kitchens so they blend into your layout and don’t make the space look crowded. Discover all the small kitchen ideas you could need by taking a look at photos of compact kitchens.

What sort of kitchen lighting should I go for?

In the kitchen you need to have practical lighting – no one wants to chop, cut and cook in a dingy room. Kitchen ceiling lights are probably the best way to go, but should you opt for recessed spotlights or traditional hanging ceiling lights? While spotlight LED kitchen lighting will give you excellent light, they may not fit with a design that’s not contemporary. Traditional chandelier lights could work for other kitchen styles, and of course, kitchen pendant lighting comes in all sorts of styles, colours and designs. While the popular choice is to go with one or two pendant lights over your kitchen island, you could also opt for a single pendant light over your dining space, or a few spaced out across your kitchen. Of course, if you want good lighting for your worktops, under-cabinet lighting is the way forward. Speak to your kitchen supplier about having this pre-installed, or there are a number of easy-install options you can fit yourself or with the help of a lighting expert or electrician.
