If you’re looking for a wow-factor finish to your kitchen, you can’t get much better than the high gloss finish. High gloss is definitely one of the more defining finishes that a person can choose, and really works well with a modern and contemporary style kitchen. But how else can you feature high gloss in your kitchen and what appliances work best with the look?
No matter what colour scheme you’ve opted for, Corian is a great match for a gloss finish kitchen. The natural shine and smooth finish keep the trend of a seamless, clean and efficient kitchen space while minimising maintenance of your final design. Corian is often used to enhance and personalise your kitchen space as it can be molded and shaped to match the straight or curved lines in your kitchen – so if you want unique cupboards and worktops, or want to integrate a personalised feature, always opt for Corian.
Brushed steel offers a fantastic contrast to high gloss furnishings while completing the contemporary theme. The colder, smoother textures of brushed steel appliances still catch the light, but add a bit of depth to your kitchen too.
Appliances such as fridges and ovens can also be integrated into the wall paneling, and brushed steel finishes can be found in many appliances by Neff. You could also opt for brushed steel taps and light fittings for a coherent look.
The induction hob offers another opportunity to use brushed steel. A sleek, stylish angled Neff extractor fan adds also contrast to the vertical lines achieved with paneling and the horizontal lines created by worktops and islands.
While high gloss looks great, texture is important too, giving your home a warmer, less clinical look. You could either opt for an entirely different texture, such as wood, to pair with your high gloss finish, and use for your table or breakfast bar, or opt for a textured focal point – for example a textured panel splashback.
It’s easy to underestimate the power of flooring on the overall look and feel of your kitchen. Ceramic tiles, slate flooring and wooden flooring all offer great contrasts and depth to high gloss finishes. If you’ve already opted for non-gloss appliances and furnishings, you could go high gloss with your floor, using laminate or vinyl.

AWARD-WINNING KITCHENS FOR AN AWARD-WINNING DEVELOPER
As you may know if you’ve visited any of our showrooms in Manchester, Blackburn, Liverpool or Barrowford, we manage more than 250 kitchen projects each year here at Kitchen Design Centre. Many of these kitchens are for individual customers, but we also specialise in providing exceptional designer kitchens to housebuilders and developers. We have a particularly successful longstanding relationship with Candelisa, a prestigious Yorkshire-based property developer that is (like us) known for the peerless quality of its designs.
The company already has an impressive array of awards on its shelves, and its team have recently managed to secure their latest accolade: the Best High Volume New Housing Development at the prestigious LABC Awards!
In case you need a quick refresher, the LABC Awards are the largest business-to-business awards in the UK’s building control sector, aimed at celebrating and rewarding building projects, and the people behind them. The Best High Volume New Housing Development in question was Candelisa’s project at Countyfields, Embsay. Due to our strong relationship with the company (largely through Simon Thomas, the head of our Barrowford showroom), Kitchen Design Centre was chosen to deliver every kitchen at the Embsay development – and like Candelisa’s team, we’re hugely proud of the results.

A CLASSIC SHAKER STYLE KITCHEN FOR A CHESHIRE
HOME
When Louise and Stuart renovated and extended their Wilmslow home they visited several local kitchen companies but were keen to get exactly what they wanted and researched companies with large showrooms located slightly further afield.
Kitchen Design Centre popped up on google and they were delighted to find that were open on a Sunday and that being located at Housing Units Failsworth, they were only a 20-minute drive away.
They were amazed by the showroom and how many full-size displays there were. They were equally impressed with Designer Paul Harrington who spent a great deal of time listening to what they wanted and going through various options and designs with them.

Latest case study now live incase you missed it.
With a keen eye for design, Nicole knew the look she wanted and approached a local kitchen company. They came up with a range of designs but although there was nothing wrong with them, the couple felt that they would like an alternative design. They were already dealing with a lot of different companies for other rooms in the house and were reluctant to involve another but Anthony suggested they visited Rowan at Kitchen Design Centre Urmston to see if he could improve the design, and they were absolutely blown away with what he came up with.
