Gordon and Sabrina loved the Shaker style kitchen that Paul Harrington designed for them in their Hyde home so much that when they moved to Marple, they called on Kitchen Design Centre and Paul again to create a similar kitchen in their new house!
Incorporating Hampton Graphite and White shaker doors but with a modern design twist, the kitchen was the same colour as their first kitchen but slightly bigger to accommodate their new space. Antique bronze effect handles completed the look and the worktops were almost identical but this time they opted for 30mm Calacatta Aurum which has a stunning gold fleck throughout.
Like the last kitchen, a large island dominates the design and offers casual dining in the form of breakfast bar dinging together with an undercounter wine cabinet and two Neff ovens which complement Sabrina’s existing range cooker.
Are you ready to make your dream kitchen a reality?
Gordon and Sabrina found Paul’s advice to be invaluable as at one point they were considering an extension to make the kitchen space bigger but Paul showed them that with the right design in the existing space, an extension wasn’t necessary.
They loved the Neff appliances in their first Kitchen Design Centre kitchen so chose Neff once again, opting for the Slide and Hide oven, warming drawer and Compact Oven and Microwave. To tie-in with the overall Shaker style, a Blanco Villae Single Bowl Ceramic Farmhouse Sink was chosen together with a Pro3 Fusion round Quooker tap in Patinated Brass.
Like the first time, the couple found Kitchen Design Centre’s project management to be spot on and the fitters were excellent again, with everything running smoothly.
The finished space is stunning and Sabrina loves how she’s already familiar with cooking in the kitchen and knows where everything is and how all the appliances work.

"We loved our Kitchen Design Centre kitchen in our last house and were really impressed with Paul so it made sense to go back to Paul for a similar kitchen! It looks fantastic, we’re delighted once again."
"I loved designing Gordon and Sabrina’s kitchen the first time round. With a twist on a classic shaker style, this design looks fantastic. It was great to replicate the design in their new house, adapting it to suit the new space."Paul Harrington

MODERN MINIMALISM AT ITS FINEST IN OUR URMSTON SHOWROOM
Our Urmston showroom display showcases a bold, modern kitchen design that effortlessly blends both form and function. The handleless units create a streamlined, uninterrupted flow throughout the space, perfectly complemented by the ultra-matt black finish on the worktops. This pairs beautifully with the elegant black ribbed-veneered door for the focal wall.
This minimalist design approach offers a chic, contemporary vibe, ideal if you love the clean, clutter-free aesthetic. To enhance this look, we’ve used warm accent colours that break up the monochrome palette, adding a sense of inviting depth and warmth to the overall space. The subtle, extravagant marble panels add a touch of quiet luxury, their natural veining providing visual interest and texture against the sleek black surfaces, especially when lit by warm LED lighting. This fusion of modern materials and timeless elements, such as marble, creates a display that is both stylish and practical!
