RETAILER CASE STUDY | Sheffi eld Sustainable Kitchens

ECO period feel with a
Sheffield Sustainable Kitchens was tasked with creating a bespoke kitchen-diner for this period property that would look beautiful, be functional and use eco-friendly materials and products
he challenge for Sheffi eld Sustainable Kitchens was to create a contemporary kitchen design, while keeping a traditional feel to this period property. It needed to be a ‘living’ kitchen-diner – somewhere to relax and entertain, as well as a functional space, so it had to feel warm and look beautiful, while keeping its functionality. Combining stunning colours and warm timber, along with highly functional kitchen components, the fi nal kitchen design does just that.

At the centre of the room, facing the door from the entrance hall, is a kitchen peninsula that bridges the space between the kitchen and dining areas.

The peninsula is the central feature of the kitchen, adding warmth and character, and is topped with a sustainably-sourced and PEFC-certifi ed solid oak worktop. The timber adds to the relaxed feel of the space, as well as offering a contrast to the striking blue colours of the painted ash cabinet doors. Sited on the peninsula is a fi ve-zone induction hob from Neff. Also located there are a number of storage units, three spacious drawers and an Antaro Pullboy waste bin.
The sleek Furnipart handles are contemporary and a beautiful detail, while their Inox colourway enhances the blue cabinetry.
On the far wall, facing the peninsula, is the main
kitchen run. At the left-hand end is a full-height larder storage unit containing Blum Space Tower drawers, allowing the clients an instant overview of their dried goods and food supplies. Next to this are two Neff ovens – a single and a combi – and a warming drawer, covering every eventuality for family cooking. The worktop along this sink run is made from recycled glass from Resilica, made in the UK by crushing waste glass and setting the shards in resin to produce a solid surface.
Hard-wearing and durable, this has similar properties to granite. It is a striking material and a more sustainable alternative.
