JAMES & GINA
James and Gina’s project started with a combined vision of what their basement area could become. At the beginning of their journey, their basement was dilapidated and suffered from cobwebs, mushrooms, damp and peeling paint. One half was a run-down billiards room, and the other half was an old wine cellar. They decided to give System Six Kitchens a call.
WHY SYSTEM SIX KITCHENS?
“We’ve always felt looked after. There is no other word. You were an asset to our project. It was exactly what we asked for, within our timescale and true to the budget that was allowed. It was quite simply a successful project.”
“The irony of it all is that I haven’t stepped foot out of this house, I haven’t even been to System Six. Emily came to us with a massive selection and made it so easy. She was able to come out with samples, match our mood board and show us how each piece complemented another, and away we went. We built the mood board in the kitchen, and it never left this house.
THE DESIGN PROCESS
“There’s going to be a bar, it’s going to have backlighting, it’s going to have colours, we’re going to have the bottles lit and we’ll probably have padded seating inside.”
“Emily was very helpful, she explained how System Six could make this process seamless for us. She was very good at coming in and saying, ‘there is a problem there, but I know how to fix it’ – that’s what I found really useful to work with.”
DOOR CHOICE
“To me, glossy doors shout, sleek, up-market, nightclub, bar, evening wear, and heels. It needs to be seamless. It had to be able to be quick and easy to clean, as well as durable. It’s a useable space and it’s very tactile.
The gloss finish is in keeping with the environment. Light bounces off the doors. The worktop also has a glittery type of finish to complement the lights and disco ball.”
