The main brief from the client was very open minded. The rear courtyard had recently been renovated and had a contemporary Asian style. They wanted the kitchen to tie in with that feel. The only real direction from the client was towards an island bench and a light kitchen. Their concern was lack of light given that the only source was from the courtyard. With this in mind, a concept was created but a totally different colour scheme for the finishes was presented. A white or light kitchen would not have sat well in the space and faded into the background. Photo's Andrew Ashton
