BRIGHT AND OPEN BAKER'S KITCHEN
When this couple first approached System Six Kitchens, they were weighing up whether to sell their home or invest in it. They decided to stay and transform their kitchen and it proved to be the perfect decision for their family.
THE DESIGN
When this couple first approached System Six Kitchens, they were weighing up whether to sell their home or invest in it. In the end, they decided to stay and transform their kitchen, a decision they now describe as one of their best.
The redesign was led by Richard Parnell, who not only created the design but also project managed the entire process. From coordinating plumbers to electricians, Richard ensured every detail was taken care of, giving the couple a seamless experience from start to finish.
THE RESULT
At the heart of the brief was family life. Both passionate bakers, the couple wanted a kitchen that made baking with their grandchildren a joy. Richard introduced a bespoke baking larder complete with a secret Christmas baking drawer, a playful but practical feature that has become one of their favourite details.
The design centred around a large central island, which naturally draws everyone together. With the Neff venting hob built into the surface, the island offers plenty of workspace, generous storage and the perfect spot for family baking sessions. It has quickly become the hub of the home, used just as much for everyday cooking as it is for celebrations.
To create a timeless and elegant look, Richard specified cabinets in Linden Taupe paired with Unistone Carrara Misterio quartz for the worktops, upstands and windowsill. These finishes strike a balance between classic and contemporary, while providing a durable and practical surface for a busy family kitchen. The design was completed with a Neff oven and Micro-Combi, alongside the convenience of a Quooker boiling water tap.
