The brief


“ We are looking for a kitchen layout that really helps maximise the available floor area.We want lots of storage and practical solutions to make it easy to use. The room is 5 x 5m.”


The green cabinetry contrasts with the white quartz worktop – a great alternative to marble, as it’s hard- wearing and virtually maintenance free – and gives a crisp finish. Plenty of storage has been included to keep the surfaces clutter free.


Option 1: BOLD AND PRATICAL


Al Bruce, founder, Olive & Barr


“Painted in Hunter Green, this Shaker-style scheme looks classic but incorporates state of the art appliances and a statement split-level island – with easy pull-out pan drawers and storage – to create a multi-functional kitchen-living-diner. It has been designed with floor-to- ceiling cabinets along one side of the L-shape. The upper bespoke units are glazed to reflect light around the room, while underneath there are four built-in appliances. On the adjacent side, there is a double stainless-steel sink with a boiling-water tap, plus a recycling bin and a dishwasher either side. A traditional larder completes the run. The island’s quartz worktop provides additional preparation space, with an air induction hob facing the seating – ideal for cooking and socialising at the same time.” Olive & Barr kitchens start from £4500.


right The bank of appliances comprises two slide-and-hide ovens at the top and a combinationa microwave and a steam oven below. The run also includes an integrated fridge-freezer as well as open shelving above the sink.
