Kitchen Tour | Holkham Beautifully Bespoke Victorian Renovation

By choosing a bespoke company for a small kitchen project you are far more likely to realise your dream kitchen since clever design and storage solutions will enable you to fit more into the room than perhaps you may have initially considered. Many people assume that their room is simply too small for a bespoke kitchen but in reality, this is not the case. By opting for a bespoke design, the cabinetry will be made to your specifications, ensuring that every inch of the room is well used. This enables you to make the most of whatever sized room you have, creating a small but stunning and highly ergonomic kitchen.

The kitchen-diner in this Victorian semi-detached property in south-west London was designed to meet the functional and lifestyle needs of the client, as well as being ergonomically efficient.

Being avid entertainers, the couple wanted their new room to accommodate seating for up to 8 people, a traditional-style dresser and a bar area for making cocktails. ‘Holkham’ shaker-style cabinetry was chosen for its simplicity and pared-back feel. The uncomplicated design and focus on proportion make it a perfect fit for smaller kitchens.

Using the space either side of the original fireplace, the kitchen accommodates a large semi-glazed dresser as well as a small bar area which is topped with the same natural stone worktop, and is within easy reach of the fridge and dining table.

 

A banquette on the opposite side of the room was designed to provide additional space-saving seating and helps to balance the amount of furniture in the room without it feeling overcrowded.

The banquette seating is hand painted in the same colour as the kitchen cabinetry to help make the room appear longer, whilst also providing additional seating around the large family dining table. A dresser unit with bi-folding cabinet doors also maximises the amount of storage in this smaller room: designed and made to fit perfectly inside the alcove alongside the original Victorian fireplace.

Hand painted in calming Little Greene’s Sage Green, the room scheme combines natural stone, glass and oak elements which evoke a feeling of nature and space, helping the room flow seamlessly into the outdoor area beyond the traditional-style french doors.
