At Kitchen Design Centre, we specialise in creating kitchens that are high quality, stylish, functional, and durable, using only suppliers that meet these requirements too.
If you’ve met with one of our designers, or visited our showrooms, you’ll know that German brand, Hacker, are one company who feature in many of our kitchen designs. Why? Because they are renowned for their design, reliability, commitment and success in the world of kitchens, complementing our big ideas and customer needs.
To see what 2015 and beyond held for Hacker kitchens, we decided to pay them a visit at their factory in Germany. The facility itself was rather impressive, a mecca for contemporary German kitchen design, and our tour revealed to the team the newest kitchen styles, doors and worktop ranges. One of the highlights of our annual tour had to be the extensive range of displays, which provided inspiration to all our designers, showing them how the new styles could be used and how they could work together. Simon Thomas, designer at our Colne kitchen showroom, even began to plan the new display for the Blackburn kitchen showroom whilst he was on the visit. Of course, the designs were inspired by the latest displays at the Hacker factory.
Will Hustler, our longest serving employee, based in the Blackburn showroom, was particularly impressed with the stunning stone effect range, which he could see fitting in perfectly with any contemporary home. Whilst the new Systemat range, caught John Crosby’s eye, one of our Manchester kitchen showroom designers. He particularly liked the modern edge of Systemat and the fact that the designs offered customers something really unique. Grace Davis, our newest kitchen designer and interior design graduate, had a real soft spot for the grey basalt doors and matching laminate worktops – which we’re sure you will see popping up in her work in the not to distant future!
Our visit to Hacker Germany has made us really excited about what’s to come in the world of kitchen design. There’s no doubt that we’ve returned from our visit totally inspired by the modern designs – which will be coming to kitchens near you very soon!
To keep an eye on our latest kitchen designs, why not look at our Customer Kitchens page? You’ll find case studies on some of our favourite designs and may just be inspired to implement one of these into your current home.

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.
