As we approach the end of another busy year here at Kitchen Design Centre we reflect on another successful year that’s seen our designers create a wide range of kitchens in a multitude of colours, styles and designs.
As always, creativity and exceptional customer service has been at the very heart of all our projects. Here’s a look at some of the incredible customer kitchens we’ve designed and installed in 2023:
Paul Harrington “overdelivered” in the words of the customer when he delivered this amazing kitchen for Wes and Zara. Adopting a matt black palate throughout, the result is a sophisticated, sleek black kitchen that’s enhanced with contrasting vintage oak throughout and has totally transformed the couple’s home.
From a dark kitchen to a light grey one with Suzanne Ryan’s absolute show stopper that she did for a family who built their own home on the Fylde coast. This large contemporary kitchen is perfect for this stunning home and ticked everything on the family’s wish list, being perfect for every day living and entertaining larger groups. Suzanne loved working from architect’s plans and having input from the outset.
2023 has seen a rise in the installation of utility rooms and pantries and this project in Blackburn saw Will Hustler design a stunning kitchen together with separate utility room and a separate pantry in two rooms next to the kitchen. The family chose their kitchen based on our new Blackburn display and then chose a contrasting Hampton Ocean Blue colour for both the pantry and utility room.
Hampton Ocean Blue has been very popular this year. It was also chosen for this modern shaker style kitchen that Rowan Chick created for a family who visited our Urmston showroom. With a large island and bespoke dining table this kitchen is a clever twist on a traditional style and has become the heart of David and Lois’ home.
It’s not just dark colours that have featured in 2023 as this light, contemporary kitchen we did in Bury shows. John Crosby worked from architect’s plans to create Glenn and Brenda’s ideal kitchen for their renovated vicarage. Utilising Laser Soft Grey units and contrasting with taupe and summer oak wood accents, the result is a light, bright, homely space.
Wood has also been a trend in 2023. Anthony and Mel chose a Nordic style kitchen in dark wood tones. Working with designer Lou Roberts from our Blackburn showroom, their kitchen featured Cognac Vintage Oak.
Our last featured kitchen is an extension to a former kitchen we did back in 2020. Andrea and Stephen loved their kitchen so much that they extended their home and created a large open-plan area that incorporated their existing kitchen with a new large bar and drinks area. Paul Harrington matched the bar to the existing kitchen perfectly, creating a space that really has the ‘wow’ factor.

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.
