As part of a large rear extension and conversion of a 1920’s bungalow in Haslemere, Surrey, we were commissioned to design and make a Classic Bespoke Shaker kitchen with a separate home bar in the newly extended open plan footprint that also includes a dining area and living space. In addition, we also designed and made the joinery the utility room and a boot room in the lobby. We were recommended to the clients by Hampshire-based interior designers, Emily Steen and Danielle Marsh, founders of Wells and Maguire, with whom we have collaborated on numerous previous projects, and who created the overall interior design scheme. The brief from the clients, a professional couple with two young children, was for a large open plan kitchen that would be functional for a family, but also as an ideal hub for larger-scale entertaining. They wanted lots of storage, a large central island, which would be used for surface cooking, and for all built-in or integrated appliances to be camouflaged from immediate view. Our clients came for meetings at our Winchester showroom where we presented lots of ideas. This kitchen includes many of the unique design details showcased in our showroom, and, once translated into a complete kitchen plan, all furniture was made bespoke to fit the dimensions of the room. The interior designers chose a colour scheme that extends throughout the ground floor, unifying the kitchen with the rest of the ground floor space. The architect-designed extension features a high vaulted ceiling with matching ceiling lanterns to let in natural light. This meant that the heights of the tall cabinets had to be carefully considered to fit with the dimensions of the space. Installed at right angles on the left-hand side of the room is a large feature window with a vista to the garden beyond. This layout automatically determined the location of the sink, which runs beneath the window along the rear elevation. All Shaker in frame cabinetry was made bespoke and features 30mm thick door and drawer fronts with 60mm Ogee edged door frames. All carcases are made from walnut MFC, with solid walnut edging on the shelves. All soft-close drawer boxes are dovetailed and are also made from solid walnut. Two tall cabinets and all undercounter cabinetry are painted in Portland Stone by Little Greene, while the island and the right-hand panelled cabinet are painted in Hague Blue by Farrow & Ball. Each tall cabinet features an elegant Georgian cornice at the top. Made to perfectly fit a slim wall space to the right of a set of glazed panel doors to the garden, is a tall dresser cabinet which is part of the left-hand run. The dresser has pocket doors that open into side recesses to reveal a breakfast station, set apart from the main cooking zone. When the doors are fully opened, coffee, tea and toast can be made without disturbing the cook. The cabinet features book-matched walnut veneered internals with LED lighting above a single glass shelf and a thick walnut-edged shelf at the centre. A coffee maker and a toaster sit upon a 30mm thick Misty Carrara Satinato quartz worktop, which is also used for the upstand behind. This quartz surface material is featured throughout the kitchen. Underneath the breakfast station, which faces the side of the island, is a wide utensil drawer, above a shallow-depth double door cabinet for storage. Along this left-hand run, further undercounter cabinetry includes a double-door cupboard for pull-out bins next to a bifold corner cabinet. All undercounter cabinets and drawers have 18.2cm antique brass handles, either in vertical or horizontal positions, from the Gaumont Collection by Armac Martin. An 80cm double ceramic farmhouse sink by Shaws stands proud above a 30mm thick quartz sill, to prevent spills and splashes onto the painted double door cabinet beneath. The sink is complemented by a Quooker Fusion 3-in-1 boiling water tap in a patinated brass finish. Beneath the worktop is an integrated 60cm dishwasher by Siemens next to a cupboard and a slim door cabinet for storing trays. This cabinetry run then extends to another tall glazed dresser that houses glasses and crockery, which faces the task side of the island. Integrated within are dimmable LEDs that illuminate the interior from above, making a feature of it at night. Two cutlery drawers beneath the quartz surface sit above further shallow-depth double-door cabinets. All the tall cabinets in this kitchen have longer 35.8cm antique brass handles, also from the Gaumont collection by Armac Martin. On the right-hand side of the island is the cooling run, designed to look like a tall standalone cabinet. This includes a Siemens tall larder fridge and a Liebherr integrated tall freezer, completely concealed within housings behind Shaker panelled doors. In addition, there is a larder cabinet at the centre. This has an internal spice and bottle rack with reduced depth shelving all for dry food storage. Horizontal handles are on the front of the door above two drawers beneath. The centrepiece of the kitchen is the 3.16m x 1.3 metre island with the same 30mm thick Satinato Carrara quartz worktop fitted as a single large slab with an aperture for the hob. Because the clients did not want to have their two 60cm built-in ovens by Siemens to be immediately visible, they are installed on the task side of the island between a set of three 1.2 metre width x 40cm depth drawers, including a pan drawer at the base, and each is flanked by a slim 30cm cabinet. The drawers are directly positioned in front of the slim flat motor for the Novy Panorama 90 Vented Downdraft Induction Hob which is fitted above, flush within the worktop. This has a quiet and powerful ventilation tower that elevates to 30cm from within the glass surface to extract grease and cooking vapours at source, directly behind the pans. When not in use, the tower retracts into the hob to be completely concealed. This type of vented hob is an ideal cooking and extraction solution for a kitchen with a high and vaulted ceiling. On the facing side of the island is a recessed area that accommodates four bar stools for informal dining at the island. There are two 20cm slim width cabinets on either side, both with antique brass ball knob handles, also by Armac Martin. Within the recess are four 46cm depth drawer boxes with finger-pull handles for additional discrete storage.

A large picture window at one end brings in more light and takes advantage of the beautiful view of the river and the barn’s natural surroundings. The design incorporates sophisticated cabinetry with plenty of storage for crockery, larder items, fresh ingredients, and ample storage for their children's toys. For it to be a multi-functional space, Jaye’s layout includes a dedicated area to facilitate food preparation, coffee and tea making, cooking, dining, family gatherings, entertaining and moments of relaxation. Within the centre of the room, a large island allows the clients to have easy movement and access to all the sustainably conscious integrated appliances the client wanted when cooking on one side and comfortable seating on the opposite side. A venting Hob is located on the Island due to the high vaulted ceiling and more importantly, our client could keep an eye on the children while cooking and preparing family meals. The large island also includes seating for the family to gather around for casual dining or a coffee, and the client added a fabulous peachy pink sofa at the end for lounging or reading with the children, or quite simply sitting and taking in the beautiful view

The pantry is located in a small alcove adjacent to the kitchen island and is fitted with a U-shaped layout. External pantry doors are finished in Rubio Monocoat White Oak with fluted glass panels to match the island cabinetry. Internally, open-shelved base cabinets feature lacquered oak interiors, with solid oak shelves above finished in Rubio Monocoat White Oak. Walls are tiled for durability, and the pantry worktop matches the kitchen with 30mm honed Carrara marble, creating a seamless connection between spaces.

Open Space cucina e living: luce e fluidità Superato il cubo dell’ingresso, l’open space del living accoglie con un senso di continuità e leggerezza. Bianco e tonalità naturali dominano, con il calore del parquet a bilanciare la palette chiara. Il divano dalle linee morbide diventa il fulcro della convivialità, mentre le sospensioni sopra il tavolo da pranzo aggiungono un tocco scultoreo, leggero e decorativo. La luce naturale attraversa lo spazio, amplificando la percezione di profondità e rafforzando il legame con l’esterno. L’armadiatura su misura accompagna il percorso visivo e funzionale, creando un filo conduttore tra ingresso, zona living e cucina. La cucina è il cuore della casa: un ambiente progettato su misura, in cui i volumi si fondono con l’architettura e le superfici continue amplificano la percezione dello spazio. L’isola centrale diventa il punto di incontro, di lavoro e di condivisione, mentre le funzioni più operative sono sapientemente nascoste. La dispensa integrata e invisibile è uno dei dettagli che raccontano il progetto: uno spazio altamente funzionale che scompare alla vista, per preservare l’ordine e la purezza formale dell’ambiente.
