Sun Shines Grey

To open up the space we removed an internal wall which created a larger kitchen and dining area. Choosing Blossom Avenue’s Bella Richmond in Dust Grey Matt, meant this smooth shaker door with channel handles, provided a contemporary look to a traditional door.

The work tops are White Glitter by Natural Stone Surfaces with matching upstands and a splashback behind the Elica Nikola-Tesla Induction Venting Hob. To eliminate the need for an extractor, a venting hob was chosen. With 4 induction zones, a low noise level and a hard working extractor, this Elica Nikola-Tesla Induction Venting hob has everything you need from an induction hob and is easy to clean.

The stacked NEFF oven and combination microwave oven sit neatly next to the peninsula worktop, to zone the functional end of this kitchen.

The Qettle Signature Modern boiling tap in stainless steel located in front of the grey mirrored splashback makes this not only a practical item but a stunning addition to the kitchen.

Practical and stylish this couple opted for a Le Mans to maximise the use of this corner cupboard. The slide out mechanism ensures all hidden cupboard space is utilised and provides easy access for the everyday crockery.

Sensio under furniture recessed strip lighting helps to create not only mood lighting, but lighting that is functional as well. After installing all essential appliances needed for any modern kitchen, we had just enough space to squeeze in a slim wine cooler!

Plumbing work included repositioning the radiator, with this couple opting for a vertical flat profile radiator in Anthracite. Vertical radiators are fantastic space savers and the choice of Anthracite, ensures the modern simplicity of this kitchen is continued.To maximise the floor space we built a bespoke, matching floating storage unit and shelves. Channel handles were used for the storage unit and doors which enhanced this clean, minimalistic look.

We decided to use Grappenhall Kitchen Company as they are a local company and project managed the whole kitchen replacement from design to installation, including sourcing a builder to remove an internal wall. All the work was carried in a professional manner and to a high spec. Any issues were rectified straight away. We are really pleased with our new kitchen / dining room and would definitely recommend GKC. Thank you Neil, Carole and the team for all your hard work.
