A Bespoke Shaker Kitchen with a Contrasting Island

The main cabinetry was finished in a timeless colour, creating a calm and cohesive backdrop throughout the room. In contrast, the kitchen island was painted in a darker, more contemporary shade, giving the centre of the kitchen greater definition.

Designed as both a practical workspace and a place to gather, the island incorporates the hob, a wine fridge and generous seating space, creating the perfect spot for enjoying breakfast together.

Handmade and Hand-Painted in Our Workshop

Every element of the kitchen cabinetry was designed and made specifically for the space.

Our work included the doors, drawers and face frames, together with the skirting and cornice, ensuring that every component worked together as part of one carefully considered design.

The cabinetry was then hand-painted before being installed, giving the kitchen the depth and character associated with traditionally crafted furniture.

Bespoke Details and Quality Materials

Alongside the handmade cabinetry, we templated and installed a 30mm solid quartz worktop, providing a durable and elegant surface for everyday use.

A Quooker boiling water tap was also supplied and installed, adding a practical modern feature while remaining in keeping with the traditional character of the kitchen.

A Timeless Kitchen Made for the Way You Live

The Ballingdon Kitchen demonstrates how a traditional Shaker kitchen can be tailored to modern family life without losing its timeless appeal.

From the contrasting island and integrated wine fridge to the hand-painted cabinetry and carefully selected finishes, every detail was designed around Paula's requirements and made specifically for her home.

The result is a bespoke Suffolk kitchen that combines traditional cabinet-making craftsmanship with contemporary functionality.
