After a site survey, Designer John Crosby thought the space would look better with a more modern, handleless kitchen and suggested incorporating raw materials in the form of wood to create the ideal space. Complementing the original features of the room including exposed stone and a gun metal coloured pillar, a graphite grey coloured kitchen was proposed.
The couple initially wanted a real wood lacquered door; a pricey option, so John looked at alternatives and they all agreed a coloured door would not only be more cost effective but look better too.

His contemporary handleless design was a winner and with a large space to work with, he showed the couple how an ‘L’ shaped island would work better than a traditional straight one. To introduce wood, a natural vintage oak effect door was chosen to sit alongside the graphite grey ones and to contrast with the 20mm Ice Zement Cliveden worktop, a wooden breakfast bar was added to the island for casual dining.
As keen cooks, the couple opted for a Neff gas hob and new Neff ovens with Graphite Grey trims. A Neff downdraft extractor completed the suite of ovens and a Neff dishwasher and built-in fridge freezer were also selected.
For their bespoke drinks area on the other side of the kitchen they also chose a Caple drinks fridge in Gunmetal. With open shelving and multiple storage, this separate area makes drinks preparation easy. To finish the suite of appliances a black Quooker Pro3 Fusion square tap with sparkling water option was chosen.
Lighting was given a great deal of consideration and in addition to Sensio furniture lighting, Hacker channel handle lights were incorporated and the open metal wall display units were illuminated to make a feature of them.
The couple are delighted with the kitchen and Kitchen Design Centre “we wanted the perfect kitchen for our extension and Kitchen Design Centre delivered. John was fantastic. He really considered the space and suggested a style that works better than our original idea of a Shaker style would have done. We love the shape of the island and the whole space has been considered, making the space ideal for both everyday family living and entertaining larger groups.”

"I loved working with Paul and Natalie; they were really receptive to my ideas and together we’ve created a stunning kitchen space that complements their home. The colours work perfectly and the overall space is inviting and homely despite being a contemporary style."John Crosby

A KITCHEN AND LIVING SPACE REIMAGINED FOR A RIBBLE VALLEY HOME
Paulo and Debbie first discovered Kitchen Design Centre back in 2013 when they created their dream kitchen—and they loved it so much that, years later, they returned once more.
This time, it was for a brand-new kitchen, utility room, games room and garage storage area as part of a major renovation to their family home.
Inspired by a stunning display in the Barrowford showroom, Paulo and Debbie teamed up with Barrowford Showroom Manager, Simon Thomas. With over 25 years of experience, Simon was the perfect person to take on their new brief—one that pushed boundaries and called for creativity in a limited space.
Debbie, inspired by Pinterest, envisioned a kitchen with rich walnut tones. Simon brought this to life with a sophisticated, contemporary design that cleverly created the feeling of a large island in a narrow room, proving that great design isn’t about space—it’s about smart solutions. He did this by linking the island to one wall to create the perfect cooking centre with all the focus in to the room.
“Simon was incredible. We loved the kitchen so much that we asked him to turn his attention to the majority of our downstairs. The whole area now has real wow factor—and it’s incredibly practical too. We couldn’t be happier with the result.”

A SLEEK, HIGH-END CONTEMPORARY KITCHEN FOR A MANCHESTER HOME
When renovating their Worsley home, Kim and Paul knew exactly who to trust with their dream kitchen — Kitchen Design Centre.
A Sleek, High-End Contemporary Kitchen for a Manchester Home
Having worked with them four years ago in their previous home, they were so thrilled with the result that choosing them again was an easy decision.
Visiting the Urmston showroom, they were immediately inspired by the stunning displays and enlisted designer Rowan Chick to create a sleek yet functional space. They envisioned a monochrome palette to complement the ultra-modern aesthetic of their new home — a striking contrast to their previous more traditional navy and taupe kitchen.
