The Brief

To design a kitchen for a Jacobean Manor House which would reflect the clients’ fondness for Scandinavian minimalism.

the key consideration was to ensure that the modern kitchen sat comfortably within the 400 year old Listed property.

The plan

The original chimney breast acts as the dividing line between the cooking and dining areas. appliances, storage and worktop sit on one side and dining table and chairs on the other.

The central position of the island alleviates the potential “corridor” appearance and creates a surface for food preparation and an area around which to socialise. Natural oak ties the look together.
