Dreaming of a kitchen that’s both rustic and contemporary; a space that’s cosy and welcoming yet oh so luxurious? An Alpine infused kitchen may just be what you’ve been looking for. Influenced by stylish chalet design, the Alpine look combines natural materials with designer style for a space that’s high end and luxurious in every way. Creating the look is easier than you might think too…
When picking your kitchen worktop and cupboard materials, stick to natural materials. Wood, stone and granite are ideal and materials commonly used in our farmhouse kitchen designs. For a touch of luxury, you could also enhance your space with marble in a lovely grey white shade.
When you’re styling your Alpine kitchen, you needn’t worry about colour. Part of the beauty of an Alpine design is its neutral palette, which is simple yet warm. Stick to natural wood colours, whites and creams for a luxury look and if you’re desperate for colour add a touch of silver grey or red tartan.
To give your kitchen that must-have rustic look, take advantage of all those exposed details. Wooden beams and natural walls are two of the best options. Alternatively, you could go all Grand Designs with a glass window kitchen with a view.
If space and house design allows, why not install a fireplace in your kitchen. Nothing says Alpine charm quite like an open log fire, roaring in the background.
An open plan design is perfect for Alpine-influenced kitchens. It allows space for work and play as well as the creation of a warm and cosy area. In the living area of the kitchen, play with lush, Alpine-chic textiles. We’re talking faux fur rugs, oversized pillows and comfortable lounge seating.
Don’t forget to have a little fun with Alpine kitchen design. When choosing crockery, dish cloths and accessories to hang or pop on shelving, pick something Alpine in style. Wall art could include paintings of rugged mountain scenes of Swiss Alpine flowers while German beer steins make the perfect vintage accessories. Stag décor is also on-trend right now and looks great in a rustic and Alpine-influenced living space.
Alpine infused designs perfectly combine natural and rustic materials with understated elegance, giving a feel of real luxury. When you’re styling with mountain chalets in mind, don’t skip those luxury finishes. A touch of marble and wow-factor lighting fixtures go a long way. You may also want to include a few pieces of décor with intricate detailing for that extra dash of luxury.
Of course, the design of your kitchen is just a small part of our package at Kitchen Design Centre. Our appliances are another advantage of having your kitchen re-designed too.

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.
