This kitchen was probably one of the smallest we have ever done, but it still houses a long sink run, cupboards around the cooker AND a 6' butchers block - our customers were so surprised at how much more space they seemed to have.

These pics were obviously taken the day the kitchen was fitted so the pretty curtain and all of Nic's kitchen bits were not in their full glory on show. I guess we will have to come back again one day.

This is another good example in Wootton Bassset of just how much you can get into  one space. You can see that there were spaces for four appliances in total.

The addition of the original larder was done so that if our customers ever wanted to move, they could take it with them

We really must go back to this kitchen we did in Frome, it was the most wonderful Georgian green colour and I am sure it looks a lot better with all of the bits in.

This kitchen that we did in Reading was sourcing their own granite so as we walked out of the door we provided a complimentary mdf top so that they could at least continue to function until the final tops arrived.

This kitchen was a long time in the making. Our customers first came to us nearly two years ago when they knew they were completely renovating their house and would want a kitchen some time in the future.

The kitchen units flow around the corner, but as the fridge is not huge, it worked quite well to leave it on the end without including it in the kitchen. Height was an issue and we didn't want it to seem crowded.

Jake here obviously likes the end result. In the bottom left of this photo is the corner of an island that gives even more work surface as well as cupboard space. The larger doors on the main run are hiding a dishwasher and washing machine.

Here is a great example of staging the kitchen. We always tell our customers that unless you are sure you need top cupboards, get all of your things away in the bottom ones then let us know. Our customers here in Cheltenham needed somewhere for cornflakes, so we went back a few weeks later and hung this.

I know this is nothing to do with free-standing kitchens really, but I posted this photo here as it shows quite well how you can bring other furniture into the room, just by a bit of painting. The oak top also works really well.

This is something rare, a customer that wanted a pine kitchen, rather than a painted one. If you saw the amount of people and animals that constantly march through this room, you can see why.

We fitted the kitchen, then left our customer to decide on tiles, and once she had got them hung we went back out to measure the space around them, and came back to fit this stunning surround. I am loving those tiles.
