Showroom inspiration for a Cheshire Home

When Graham and Paula renovated their new home, they turned four rooms in to one large open plan kitchen space and got expert help from Paul Harrington at Kitchen Design Centre who created a stunning new room.

They had no idea what type of kitchen they wanted but knew they needed both design help and a full project management service which would go from inception through to completion.

They felt in safe hands as soon as they met Paul at the Kitchen Design Centre showroom Failsworth showroom which is based at Housing Units. They found a great deal of inspiration in the showroom and even visited Kitchen Design Centre’s Urmston showroom where a particular monochrome display caught their eye and formed the basis of their finished kitchen.

Are you ready to make your dream kitchen a reality?

Incorporating a large square island, the kitchen design makes the most of the stunning golf course views from the back of the house through the new bi-fold doors. Casual dining for four is available on one side of the island and the new Neff Downdraft hob is located on the other side, enabling sociable cooking and dining.

Neff appliances were selected throughout, including Slide and Hide ovens and a wine fridge. They also chose a Quooker tap. One feature they particularly love is the mirrored glass splashback that Paul suggested which works perfectly and bounces light through the kitchen.

The finished space is really striking and is the perfect addition to the open plan area. Graham and Paula are delighted with it and the whole Kitchen Design Centre team from Paul through to the fitters who did an excellent job.

Designer Paul Harrington says: “this job needed real vision as the new space was totally different to the four rooms that had been there before. It was great that our showrooms gave Graham and Paula such inspiration. Going for a monochrome scheme really works. The space is striking and makes the most of their fantastic views.”

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!
