Renovated Georgian Home: Classic meets contemporary
The owners of this beautiful Georgian property have been renovating for over two years with one distinct aim: to transform their house from boring bricks and mortar into an entirely original home.
They wanted a kitchen that was sleek and stylish, but entirely open to put their own personal stamp on. All the units are hand-crafted from Quebec Yellow Timber and painted in Farrow & Ball ‘White’ to create a crisp, clean canvas for this modern couple. Warm English Oak worktops inject a sense of cheer and avoid the clinical feel that can accompany white installations. This minimal kitchen is finished with chrome knobs with square backplates and Scopwick Mouldings, for extra oomph.
Special features include a floor-to-ceiling wine rack, a concealed cutlery block and a Tepan Yaki hot plate deftly hidden under a chopping board to maximize space and functionality for this couple of keen cooks.

Here’s one way to turn a blank area into a dream storage solution that’s not only useful, but looks beautiful, too.The designers have built recessed shelving into stud walls on either side of the kitchen opening. Two columns of wine racks on one side and a bookcase for recipe books on the other has turned redundant space into a practical design feature. If you’re considering building recessed shelving in your kitchen, make sure you’re fitting it into a stud wall – a builder or carpenter will be able to advise you on finding the perfect solution.
