Your kitchen is often called the heart of the home, and for good reason. It’s where we cook, eat, and spend time with family and friends. A bespoke kitchen or a kitchen facelift can transform your kitchen into a functional and stylish space where you’ll love spending time. Below, we’ll explore the benefits of these kitchen solutions and what to consider before implementing them in your home.
Fitted Kitchens
Fitted kitchens are designed to meet your exact requirements. Your dream Kitchen will be created in consultation to meet your needs and personal taste. You have complete control over the materials and colours you choose. I can assist you in choosing style, layout, and colour to ensure the finished product works well and looks great.
Benefits of a bespoke fitted kitchens:
Custom-made
Bespoke kitchens are designed to meet your requirements, ensuring you get a kitchen that meets your needs and complements your home’s interior style. They are designed to accommodate the list of appliances you need.
Function well
Your kitchens must be designed to be functional, with carefully planned layouts and storage solutions that help maximise space and make them more efficient.
As your Kitchen designer, I will help you locate each appliance based on how it will function in specific locations. For example, ideally, you will have enough worktop space on either side of the hob and within reach when removing items from the oven/microwave.
Also, if you wish to add an island, you must ensure adequate space around it so it does not hinder kitchen work.
Quality materials
Bespoke kitchens use high-quality materials and are built to last. This ensures that your kitchen remains durable and retains its aesthetic appeal for many years.
Kitchen cabinets and cabinet doors are made in a range of standard sizes. This allows you to give the kitchen a facelift by fitting new cabinet doors without removing the cabinets and worktops.
Aesthetic appeal
Bespoke kitchens are designed to be visually stunning. A wide range of finishes and styles can help you create a unique and stylish look in your home. Eye-level ovens, integrated appliances, and the addition of kitchen islands can improve your kitchen’s appearance and functionality.
Kitchen Facelifts
If you don’t want to go through the process of a complete kitchen renovation, a kitchen facelift is a great option. This can involve fitting new kitchen doors and drawer fronts. You may also decide to update the worktops.
Alternatively, if you have solid timber doors or a painted kitchen, you can choose a re-spray to give your kitchen a new look. The kitchen above was moved from one end of the room to the other. The bench seat, island and glass display cabinets were added, and the original doors were re-painted to refurbish the kitchen completely.
