A New Perspective
Décor Kitchens & Interiors|August - September 2019

The owners of this beautiful Edwardian property have transformed their kitchen without needing to alter the original footprint, thanks to carefully considered design and lateral thinking

A New Perspective

‘Having purchased their early 20th century home back in 2007, the owners renovated throughout as soon as they took ownership. The one room though that wasn’t working for them was the kitchen. ‘The kitchen is the centre of the house and we spend most of our time there. We had a number of issues with how our old kitchen worked so we decided to remodel. The functionality of the old kitchen was limited. It lacked storage space and was not easy to work in. The look was dated and we wanted something fresh and modern that would work well with the style of the house.’

Having visited a number of showrooms, researching magazines and online, the couple chose Design Yard to design, manufacture and install their bespoke new kitchen. ‘We are time poor and wanted to work with a company who would take responsibility for the project end to end. We wanted the project to be efficiently managed as we were living in the house the entire time. When we visited the Design Yard showrooms, the design team listened carefully to what we wanted to achieve. They had good ideas about what was possible and practical. They showed us 3D visuals of designs and took time to understand how we live. We felt they would be flexible and easy to work with and they were.’
