My kitchen At Home
The central island is perfect for girls’ fi rst cookery lessons
Favourite kitchen gadget
‘A huge serving spoon that my friend brought me back from Serbia. It’s perfect for pasta sauces.’
Painted larders can refl ect fabrics and even crockery
Integral fi lter tap, less fi ddly than a jug
10 reasons Victoria loves her kitchen
1. Having a big central island. It’s lovely for when the girls cook and makes a fantastic bar when we entertain.
2. The round table. It can feel personal when there are just four of us, but isn’t cramped when we have friends here.
3. The way the stools tuck under the bar. It keeps the kitchen streamlined. I don’t like clutter.
4. The larder style of the kitchen. It blends into the fabric of the house.
5. The controlled mood lighting. It’s great for setting any scene.
What would you change?
‘I wouldn’t change a thing, but if we moved, I’d make our next kitchen even taller and slimmer. The cupboards make for brilliant storage, but really I just love the way they look.’
6. Having painted units. The colour can be changed really easily.
8. The integral fi lter tap. It’s less fi ddly than water jugs.
7. The extra drinks fridge. It’s invaluable when we have a crowd.
9. The Aga. I love the fact it’s ‘on’ all the time. It saves so much time and is self-cleaning.
10. The fl oor-to-ceiling cupboards. You can never have too much storage.
