With more than 36 years of success behind us here at Kitchen Design Centre, we’ve always taken care to make sure that we’re adapting our designs to the newest trends, so that we can continue offering you the very latest styles, enhanced with cutting-edge appliances from the most prestigious world leading manufacturers. Swing by one of our designer kitchen showrooms, and you’ll see all that and more showcased in our displays. (In fact, they’ve gone on to inspire their fair share of customer kitchens!)
Recently, you might have spotted two brand new displays in our Barrowford and Manchester (Failsworth) showroom. If not, here’s what you can expect to find!
The new display at our Manchester showroom is a contemporary handleless kitchen, which is exactly what our customers know and love us for here at Kitchen Design Centre. It showcases the Systemat range by Hacker, one of the world’s most prestigious suppliers of German kitchens, and incorporates a mixture of graphite, Carrera white cabinets and okobo coffee brown cabinets, all subtly lit by channel handle lights to emphasise that contemporary feel.
It’s got an impressive range of appliances too, including Kombi microwave, and graphite Neff single oven. (We’re a Neff Master Partner here at Kitchen Design Centre.) It also features a hi-spec induction hob, and an intriguing new twist on a classic in the form of a black Quooker fusion tap.
And here’s something you may not have seen before – an 800mm-wide walk-in cabinet, deftly integrated into the design. In other words; essentially a secret door! If you want a unique wow factor for your kitchen, it doesn’t get much better than that.
Moving on to our Barrowford showroom, the entire display here is specifically designed to showcase the new concept130 range from Hacker, which has been newly launched for 2022. Its colour scheme prominently incorporates a shade of soft matte black, with a matching grey marble effect on the other units and the worktop. (Black and marble tones are both shaping up to be big design trends for 2022.) It’s also beautifully finished with an accent of summer oak.
As you can probably tell from a glance, our designers developed this display in response to the changing way in which we’ve all begun using our kitchens in the last few years. The rise in home working was a particular focus for us, so our concept130 display utilises a comfortable desk area, with a co-ordinated black Flexo-tap manufactured by Blanko.
What’s more, this display also includes another stunning appliance in the form of the Neff Glass Draft cooker – one of the latest innovations from this world-leading manufacturer. It’s a seamlessly integrated kitchen extractor that normally sits neatly in an enclosed recess in the worktop, and when activated, it rises smoothly up into a fixed position, using guided air technology to extract steam and colours from anywhere but the cooktop, so that you can leave your kitchen smelling just as fresh as it did before you began cooking.
The Neff Glass Draft cooker might be designed to effortlessly disappear, but it’s hardly surprising why it’s so often the centre of attention!
As the final cherry on a very contemporary-looking cake, our Barrowford display also has excellent eco-credentials as a carbon-neutral manufactured kitchen. Essentially, this means that all the carbon emissions normally involved in its manufacture have been offset by other means, so you can be sure that this black contemporary kitchen has never been… well, greener.
Like the look of these? Why not come pay them a visit in person at our Barrowford and Manchester designer kitchen showrooms, and our designers will be happy to answer any and all questions you might have about them. And of course if you’ve already formed some ideas about what you’d like for your dream kitchen, we’re here to help you turn them into reality. We’ve also got designer kitchen showrooms in Blackburn, Liverpool, and Urmston, Manchester – so wherever you’re based, you can always count on the same stunning service.

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.
