Kitchen Plan
The couple’s home, a converted farmhouse, in Edgeworth, near Bolton, Lancashire, incorporated a well-made traditional kitchen, previously fitted by Kitchen Design Centre.
However, after experiencing a second water disaster, in which the upstairs bathroom flooded the ground floor, the couple decided they wanted a complete change – into a modern German-style kitchen.
“The flooding came from the en-suite bathroom and leaked through the kitchen ceiling,” said Kathleen. “At the time I was quite disappointed because I really liked my traditional farmhouse kitchen.
“But now I am really glad we made the decision to change. The new kitchen is light and makes fantastic use of space.”
As part of a redesign of their home, Kathleen went to several kitchen showrooms to explore the latest styles available, before choosing a German-style kitchen from Kitchen Design Centre, Colne.
The new kitchen is a mixture of high gloss magnolia and dark acacia, to give a wooden effect.
Now extremely spacious, and with the lighting dramatically improved, the farmhouse kitchen is unrecognisable from the old design.
One innovative space saving feature is the cupboard, which was specially designed to provide lots of storage space while taking up as little of the room as possible.
A breakfast bar was designed to be the centrepiece of the kitchen – creating a perfect Corian worktop preparation area and storage space.
Finished Kitchen
With up-to-date advanced technology, the modern kitchen has everything anyone could want for practical living – including a combination microwave, oven, coffee machine, warming drawers, induction hobs, integrated fridge, freezer and dishwasher and a 100 degrees Quooker hot tap.
The dining area was also re-designed to incorporate a flat screen wall TV – which is perfect for family life.
“It’s the little things that make the kitchen so wonderful,” said Kathleen.
“Everything is easy to reach and use. Even things like the waste bins being inside the cupboard make it easier.
I especially like the Quooker boiling hot water tap – it really adds to our overall standard of living.
“The Corian worktop is brilliant – hygienic and easy to clean. It is much better than the marble we had previously.”
Simon, designer at Kitchen Design Centre’s Colne showroom, said: “We made the kitchen as practical and beautifully designed as possible in order for Mr and Mrs Graham to get the most out of their space.
“After we went through the plans, I showed them 3D images, which really helped them understand how it would all work logistically.
“Because it was a flooding incident, we had to liaise with the insurance company and electricians.”
Kathleen said: “My amazing new farmhouse kitchen is a pleasure to be in. I’m so glad I chose to get a new contemporary kitchen installed instead of fitting a traditional one again.
“Friends who walk into our gorgeous new kitchen always comment on how brilliant it looks. I would recommend Kitchen Design Centre to anyone.”

AWARD-WINNING KITCHENS FOR AN AWARD-WINNING DEVELOPER
As you may know if you’ve visited any of our showrooms in Manchester, Blackburn, Liverpool or Barrowford, we manage more than 250 kitchen projects each year here at Kitchen Design Centre. Many of these kitchens are for individual customers, but we also specialise in providing exceptional designer kitchens to housebuilders and developers. We have a particularly successful longstanding relationship with Candelisa, a prestigious Yorkshire-based property developer that is (like us) known for the peerless quality of its designs.
The company already has an impressive array of awards on its shelves, and its team have recently managed to secure their latest accolade: the Best High Volume New Housing Development at the prestigious LABC Awards!
In case you need a quick refresher, the LABC Awards are the largest business-to-business awards in the UK’s building control sector, aimed at celebrating and rewarding building projects, and the people behind them. The Best High Volume New Housing Development in question was Candelisa’s project at Countyfields, Embsay. Due to our strong relationship with the company (largely through Simon Thomas, the head of our Barrowford showroom), Kitchen Design Centre was chosen to deliver every kitchen at the Embsay development – and like Candelisa’s team, we’re hugely proud of the results.

A CLASSIC SHAKER STYLE KITCHEN FOR A CHESHIRE
HOME
When Louise and Stuart renovated and extended their Wilmslow home they visited several local kitchen companies but were keen to get exactly what they wanted and researched companies with large showrooms located slightly further afield.
Kitchen Design Centre popped up on google and they were delighted to find that were open on a Sunday and that being located at Housing Units Failsworth, they were only a 20-minute drive away.
They were amazed by the showroom and how many full-size displays there were. They were equally impressed with Designer Paul Harrington who spent a great deal of time listening to what they wanted and going through various options and designs with them.

Latest case study now live incase you missed it.
With a keen eye for design, Nicole knew the look she wanted and approached a local kitchen company. They came up with a range of designs but although there was nothing wrong with them, the couple felt that they would like an alternative design. They were already dealing with a lot of different companies for other rooms in the house and were reluctant to involve another but Anthony suggested they visited Rowan at Kitchen Design Centre Urmston to see if he could improve the design, and they were absolutely blown away with what he came up with.
