Kitchen Plan
After studying Interior Design at Bolton University, Lou Roberts was keen to use her skills to create practical yet stylish spaces that make the most of a property.
Since joining Kitchen Design Centre in 2014 Lou has certainly made her mark, and has built an enviable reputation for her ability to realise clients’ dream kitchens.
Lou tells me: “I am involved in the whole process, from the initial consultations to measuring up and using our state-of-the-art rendering system so clients can visualise the design, right through to the project management and assisting with any finishing touches. It’s a great feeling seeing the customer’s reaction to the final result and knowing you have helped shape that vision.

“I like to visit my clients’ houses and get a feel for their style and likes and dislikes before we come up with a design. It’s good to get an understanding of how they use the space and what’s important to them, and pull in elements of their personality.”
Each kitchen project is entirely bespoke, and project managed from conception to completion. This unique approach ensures that the client gets the kitchen that they want whilst retaining a single point of contact for the entirety of the project.
“The process is completely individual as each kitchen is made to order to a client’s exact specifications, meaning there is no limit in terms of what we can do,” explains Lou. “My job never gets boring because every space is unique and it’s great to have the creative freedom to create something extraordinary.”
Kitchen Design Centre specialises in modern German kitchens, and this style and aesthetic is apparent in the high-quality, stunning room spaces that seamlessly marry functionality and design.
Finished Kitchen
Lou’s most recent project was to fit a modern kitchen in a recently completed extension for Stuart and Sharon Bryce in the small village of Heapey near Chorley.
Stuart tells me: “We had previously used Kitchen Design Centre many years ago in another property, and although we looked around this time, we came back to them as we knew that their quality and design service was second to none. We had an idea of what we were looking for and Lou really helped us to get exactly what we wanted, whilst coming up with some ideas and solutions that we hadn’t originally thought of.
“Lou was incredibly helpful and polite and always available when we had any questions. She ensured everything ran smoothly and on budget. We didn’t want to cut corners and she knew exactly what our vision was for the end result. The finish and quality is excellent and we know that the kitchen will give us pleasure for many years to come.
“We are really reaping the benefits of the new space now it’s finished and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lou and the kitchen Design Centre to anyone looking for a new kitchen.”

AS SEEN ON GEORGE CLARKE’S BEAUTIFUL BUILDS: FROM DATED LAYOUT TO DREAM ENTERTAINING SPACE
When Katherine and Andrew purchased their property, they always knew a full renovation would follow.
With both the outdated kitchen and untouched garden requiring significant transformation, the project soon became part of Channel 4’s George Clarke’s Beautiful Builds – it was an opportunity they felt perfectly aligned with their vision for the property.
While searching for a local kitchen specialist, Kitchen Design Centre immediately stood out thanks to its long-standing reputation, glowing customer reviews and welcoming showroom experience.
The brief focused on creating a sleek, contemporary kitchen that would feel open, social and highly functional, while complementing the wider architectural renovation of the home.
The finished design delivers a beautifully balanced space that combines clean lines with luxurious detailing.
One of the standout features is the striking worktop design. The waterfall edge peninsula creates a bold focal point within the room, while the continuation of the material across the side panels introduces a seamless, premium aesthetic.
Functionality was equally important throughout the design process, with carefully considered storage solutions and high-quality appliances helping to simplify everyday living. Among Katherine and Andrew’s favourite additions is the Neff oven, praised for both its versatility and pyrolytic self-cleaning function.
The completed result is a sophisticated contemporary space that completely transforms how the home looks, feels, and functions, perfectly reflecting Katherine and Andrew’s original vision from the moment they moved in.
