Kitchen Tour: A Classic Kitchen Adapted for a Tricky Glazed Extension- This light-filled extension on a Surrey farmhouse has impressive glazing, with lots of windows and two rows of skylights. The green of the garden is invited in and natural light is guaranteed, but designing a kitchen in this space was not without its challenges.

“There wasn’t much room for full-height cabinets,” says Jurgita Vainutyte, who mapped out the space. “We knew we’d have to work with all this architecture, but that’s the joy of a bespoke kitchen – it can mould to any space.”

Kitchen Tour: Sweeping Curves in a Bold, Bright Kitchen- “This was a very tricky project technically, but the owner had a really clear idea of how she wanted it to look,” says Maria Pennington, who designed this striking kitchen and seating space in an Edwardian home in Chiswick, west London.

The owner had drawn up sketches of a curving, S-shaped configuration, incorporating a kitchen, breakfast bar and generous sofa in one continuous, flowing design. Many kitchen companies she approached would not take on the design of the sofa, too, but Pennington, who runs her own design business, was happy to embrace the challenge and piece the design together. “I refined her drawings and had it all made to suit the space,” she says.

10 Ideas for Creating a Clutter-free and Multi-functional Kitchen- In recent years, it’s become feasible to create ever more minimal kitchen designs, made possible through increasingly streamlined and pared-back door, worktop and appliance profiles, void of fussy or unnecessary detail, as well as new ways of hiding appliances, or minimising the space they take up.

It’s a style often popular for open-plan spaces, where a clean, uncluttered kitchen won’t take over the whole space or dominate the living area. Another benefit is that a multi-purpose workstation is one that all the family can use, whether for cooking, working or spending time together. Here are some ideas for creating a low-key kitchen that packs in everything you need.
