PACKARDS HOUSE

A SEAMLESS BLEND OF LUXURY AND FUNCTIONALITY

Luxury and quality were at the forefront of this bespoke kitchen commission, shaped by our clients’ keen design sense and a deep appreciation for craftsmanship. The naturally light-filled space at Packards House provided the perfect canvas to create a kitchen that balances timeless elegance with the needs of a growing family.

Tailored Storage & Intelligent Design:
With a focus on functionality, this kitchen integrates a range of custom pull-out storage solutions, including dedicated compartments for baking trays, waste, recycling, spices, and coffee essentials. Every element was meticulously planned to optimise accessibility and maintain a seamless aesthetic.

The central island, housing dual downdraft ventilation systems, required precision-engineered cabinetry. This accommodated the ducting while maximising storage capacity, ensuring that no space was wasted.

Materiality & Craftsmanship:
Crafted from solid lipped and veneered oak panels, the cabinetry features handmade solid oak pull handles, all stained to a deep, rich tone chosen by the client. A low-sheen lacquer enhances the natural grain of the wood, creating a warm yet sophisticated finish.

Brass detailing further elevates the design, with a mix of polished and lacquered brass accents for the cabinetry and flash gaps. Complemented by patinated brass finger pulls, adding a timeless touch of luxury.

Exquisite Stonework & Finishing Touches:
Extensive research led our client to source a striking quartzite, which was mitred to create a bold, thick profile on the island and waterfall ends. A lighter quartzite thickness was used to crown the brass cabinetry and pocket-door larder, enhancing the contrast between natural textures and metallic finishes.

A Collaborative Vision:
This project was a testament to thoughtful design and shared creativity, resulting in a kitchen that seamlessly blends aesthetic appeal with day-to-day practicality. We truly valued this collaboration and look forward to future opportunities with our clients.
