SLATE BLUE AND STONE IN-FRAME KITCHEN
Before they had even moved in, these customers came to System Six Kitchens to work with designer Anna on creating a bespoke kitchen.
THE DESIGN
Before they had even moved in, these customers came to System Six Kitchens to work with designer Anna on creating a bespoke kitchen. They didn’t expect it to be ready as soon as they got the keys, although they were keen not to waste much time. Their brief was clear: more space, more storage, and a design that combined practicality with timeless style. The only other request was that it should suit the building and location; as an ex-farmhouse, they wanted to avoid anything ultra-modern.
The existing layout was small, lacked storage, and simply didn’t work for their family. Working closely with Anna, the customers opted for the Tamworth door style in a sophisticated combination: Slate Blue for the island and Stone for the main cabinetry. This was finished with Elegance skirting plinths and pelmets, along with Elegance oak cutlery trays for a refined, cohesive look.
THE RESULT
The kitchen features granite worktops, upstands, and a windowsill in Andromeda 30mm, bringing luxury and durability in equal measure. All NEFF appliances, including the striking NEFF glass downdraft extractor, ensure top-tier performance, while a Quooker boiling water tap provides instant filtered boiling water for cooking and hot drinks.
Maximising storage was at the heart of this design. A beautiful oak pantry unit with LED sensor lighting and personalised engraved oak dovetail drawers makes organisation effortless. In the corner by the sink, Anna designed two bi-fold cupboards, one for discreet appliance storage and the other as a dedicated tea cupboard. Both are illuminated with sensor LED lights, keeping everything accessible yet neatly tucked away.
The island is a centrepiece of the room, combining bold design with practical touches. At one end, a solid oak butcher’s block rests on an oak conical pedestal, creating a focal point that also serves as a seating area. Built into the island, an oak chopping board and tray set is ready for everyday cooking.
To the left of the Rayburn, Anna incorporated log storage with drawers above, a thoughtful addition that blends seamlessly into the overall design.
