Baptie Design | RETAILER CASE STUDY


THE PROPERTY


The property was originally part of the old Edinburgh hospital, and this presented the main obstacle with the design. Like many period properties, the kitchen area was awkward and located at an offset angle. The design needed to make the small space feel much bigger.


THE CLIENT


A house-proud single professional who works long, busy shifts in the heart of Edinburgh. The client was looking for a simple, sophisticated space to escape the rat race and relax in.


THE BRIEF


The client wanted a multipurpose space, which didn’t look like a kitchen and worked as an open-plan living and dining area. Easy-to-access units were requested, as was an abundance of drawers to make the room look bigger. The kitchen design had to pay careful consideration to the awkward space, which was located at an offset angle to the rest of the room. The small area was difficult to work with due to many interruptions, including large windows surrounding the room.
