After years of imagining the potential hidden within their awkward layout, they finally decided to transform the space into something truly special.
From the first meeting in the showroom with Lauren, a strong sense of trust was established. Working closely throughout the design process, the vision evolved collaboratively, ensuring every decision reflected both practicality and personality, carefully balancing aesthetics with everyday functionality.
Are you ready to make your dream kitchen a reality?
This project required a dramatic structural reconfiguration, with two walls removed to open the kitchen and improve the overall flow of the ground floor. The results have completely reshaped the space, creating a cohesive, light-filled, flowing open-plan environment that feels both expansive and welcoming.
The brief called for a modern aesthetic with clean lines, while remaining warm and visually engaging. As keen cooks, appliance specification was paramount, alongside generous preparation space and intelligent storage solutions. Every element was carefully planned and thoughtfully integrated to ensure the kitchen performed as beautifully as it looked.
A defining feature is the L-shaped island — a solution the clients had not initially considered. By following the natural geometry of the room, it enhances movement while subtly zoning the open-plan layout. With integrated bar seating and an attached dining table, it forms a sociable hub for both everyday living and hosting.
The finished space is elegant, functional and deeply personal — a transformation that finally realises years of ambition, built on collaboration and a shared vision, demonstrating form, function and lifestyle in perfect balance.

"This project has been incredibly exciting to bring to life, watching each stage unfold and completely transform the space. Paula and Stephen placed their trust in me from the outset, giving me the freedom to create a kitchen that truly reflects their lifestyle. The finished result feels both personal and impactful, and I couldn’t be happier with how beautifully it has all come together."Lauren Couperthwaite

Little kitchen decisions that make everyday life SO much easier 🙌🏼
We positioned the dishwasher right beside the drawers where we keep our plates, bowls and cutlery, and honestly… it’s made unloading so much quicker!
It might seem like a small detail when planning your kitchen, but getting the layout right can make such a difference to how your kitchen works day to day.

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.
