The ceiling was lowered and warm air is channelled back into the room through the hidden lighting trough
Diane Berry chose this handleless kitchen from Alno which featured an island area with seating so the clients could enjoy the views out over their garden and beyond
About Diane Berry Kitchens
Diane Berry started designing kitchens back in 1980, opening her own studio in Manchester in 2002. Her passion is spatial design, so setting the room out in the best
possible way to create a kitchen to meet her client’s needs is her top priority. This attention to detail has earned her a reputation for winning awards for her designs.

THE PROPERTY This house was a large, four-bedroom detached property that had been demolished and rebuilt to create a new home that would be double the original size. The aim of the rebuild project was to create an imposing, and yet still charming, traditional family home, but with a modern twist.
THE CLIENTS
Our clients were a middle-aged professional couple who run a car dealership and live here with their three children and a small dog.
THE BRIEF
The clients wanted me to help them create a family kitchen with an island, so that they could enjoy their view out over the large garden and the fi elds beyond. They also asked for a small breakfast bar for three people and a table and chairs close by. The kitchen needed to have a tall fridge, tall freezer, a set of ovens and a microwave, as well as a hob and extractor.
The architect the family employed had created a long, thin laundry room and they couldn’t work out how to make this area work better for the dog. The family also wanted more space for storage, if possible, for coats and brooms.
So I was challenged with making the space work better for them and giving them a luxurious room that not only had the wow factor, but was functional too.
Extra space was
created by having a separate laundry room that also doubles up as a butler’s pantry when they are entertaining
