KITCHEN DETAILS
Overall project cost: £29,800 INSTALLER COMMENTS
Baptie Design’s architectural background meant the design for the space in this older building was going to be sympathetic. One key task during the install was to increase the floor space by having the lower drawers of the kitchen set back a little. I had to ensure the drawers fit uniformly in a space that wasn’t uniform. It was a shrewd idea to order the drawers separately so I could work around the awkward space and give the kitchen its look of bespoke furniture. For example, finding room for the hot tap’s water tank within the kitchen’s drawer system was tricky, but I managed with some careful customisation. Hand-made fabrications are expensive, so using natural oak for extra detailing saved the client money and was more sustainable.
