A North facing kitchen transformation

5 years ago

last modified: 5 years ago

We were brought in by our clients shortly after they completed on their new house in 2017.

The North facing 1980s kitchen was dark and, despite the mass of cupboards, highly impractical, with circulation as well as visibility obstructed by an awkward island/peninsula and large extractor hood with tiled ducting.

HCC Interiors provided planning and aesthetic expertise, architectural changes suggestions as well as detailed lighting and electrical plans in order to allow this spacious kitchen to meet our clients’ needs as well as looking balanced and neat from the informal dining area opposite.

We replaced every component in the kitchen, from lighting to units, flooring, windows and wall finishes, with the exception of the existing Aga which the client were keen to retain. We worked the plans around its existing position, and created a scheme that would fit effortlessly around the deep navy colour.

Further to the kitchen units and finishes redesign, we suggested to replace the existing windows by a unified centred full width bank of windows on the North facing wall. This brought in much more light, making a world of difference.

The units were manufactured and installed by DeVOL.
