Over the last twenty years we’ve seen Kitchen Design Centre grow and evolve to become a high-end, creative brand in customer kitchens. We’re now renowned for practical kitchens that look good too, often with that unique Kitchen Design Centre touch thrown in – that you won’t find anywhere else! Today, on our 20th anniversary, our aim remains the same as ever – to provide the most upmarket kitchens but with project costs that more clients can afford.
Founded in the 80’s, by Roger Astin, Kitchen Design Centre now has three showrooms in Blackburn, Manchester and Colne. We get involved in more than 250 kitchen commission every year from clients throughout the UK – and most of this work is generated through word of mouth and recommendations, meaning we must be doing something right!
Over time our showrooms have housed a number of different kitchen types and styles as we’ve discovered which designs best represent us as a company, and which designs satisfy every single one of out customers’ needs. If you visit one of our showrooms now, you’ll find predominantly German kitchen designs, top-notch Neff appliances and of course stunning accessories for that finishing touch.
With German kitchens being our speciality, we thought we’d introduce just two of our favourite ranges:
We love this young, fresh, modern range of designs, which offer a number of kitchen styles guaranteed to suit any customer. You’ll find an array of possibilities for cabinet configuration, fittings and accessories within this range – suitable for kitchens large and small and traditional in style or more modern. From the various options available, you’ll be able to put together your own personal kitchen to fully meet your individual requirements and demands. What’s more, the materials we use are high quality, hard-wearing and easy-care, ensuring your kitchen will fulfil all your needs for many years to come.
The ClassicART range adds a modernist edge to the traditional Classic range with its handle-less, sleek, clean cut design.
For a sophisticated, design-oriented kitchen, we always turn to our trusty Systemat German kitchen. It features variable and clearly structured modules and an array of widths, depths and heights for a high degree of creative freedom. If you’re one for convenient pull-outs, unusual shelf and cabinet solutions with an integrated lighting concept, then the Systemat design is for you. Their design and function make for unforgettable culinary experiences.
At the Kitchen Design Centre, we can help to create your dream kitchen. We’ll be there to help you from moment you make your first enquiry, right through to completion of your kitchen. We’ll give you professional advice and inspiration on how to create the look you’re after and implement your preferred design into your home for you.
Sound good? Why not come and visit one of our German kitchen showrooms in Manchester, Blackburn or Colne? Our friendly designers will be able to talk you through the Kitchen Design Centre process and discuss your ideas with you, with a free, no obligation chat.

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.
