After visiting showrooms in Clitheroe they were slightly underwhelmed, feeling none of them had many displays on show. This all changed when they visited Kitchen Design Centre in Barrowford and met designer Suzanne Carter. They were impressed with how professional, friendly and knowledgeable she was and liked the range of displays and design ideas on offer in the showroom.
Their kitchen was a compact space that needed a good design and they were surprised and pleased when Suzanne came up with a totally different design to the one they envisaged, “The space is tight and we thought the tall cupboards would only work on the wall next to the window but Suzanne showed us how they would work better on the other side of the room.”
Are you ready to make your dream kitchen a reality?
The brief was to maximise storage and worktop space and the couple feel Suzanne has achieved this, “we wanted good accessible storage and more worktop space which the kitchen has provided. Suzanne’s design means we can both be in the kitchen working at opposite sides at the same time – something we couldn’t do before.”
With high specification appliances at the top of their list, research had led them to Neff and with Kitchen Design Centre being a master partner it meant they could advise on the best appliances for the couple’s needs. They chose the Neff Single Oven with vario steam, the Combi Microwave, Flex induction hob, Box Chimney extractor, Tall fridge and Dishwasher. The furniture was high gloss handle-less in taupe with Corian worktops in white jasmine.
Finished Kitchen
The couple are delighted with the end result and can’t praise Suzanne and Kitchen Design Centre enough, “ Suzanne was great to deal with and the fitters were fantastic too. The care and attention to detail they showed during the installation was really impressive. The kitchen is a pleasure to be in – we love it.”
The couple have liked the after service from Kitchen Design Centre too. Because the appliances and cooking was so important to them they have since enjoyed Neff cooking demonstrations in the Barrowford showroom where they’ve learnt all about the appliances and how to get the best from them.
Designer Suzanne Carter says, “this was tricky as space was limited but it shows what is possible with the right design. I delivered on storage and work top space whilst also ensuring it looked good too. The Corian worktops give a streamlined look and the glossy furniture reflects the light. With space being limited the kitchen had to have a light, airy feel. I achieved this by introducing warmth and texture through the splashback and worktops.”

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.
