Twinning is winning. There two islands are technically fraternal twins. While both the same size and colour scheme, they have very different storage options and also different end panel configurations to reflect the different functions they serve. The front one has the chamfered feature posts on each corner and is for cooking and food prep. The rear island is for eating and entertaining and has a chunky box pilaster end panel at either end. Both are gorgeous options to finish a kitchen island. I felt very fortunate to have twin islands to work with and be able to incorporate both styles in the same kitchen. #kitchen #kitchendesign #kitchenisland #kitchenextension #kitchensofinstagram #shakerkitchen #paintedkitchen #twinning

Another shot of the gorgeous and recently complete

Another shot of the gorgeous and recently completed East Finchley kitchen. I hadn’t designed a modern one for a while as the last few had all been traditional, but now I have a whole bunch of modern ones on the go! This is such a spacious and nicely planned extension. The builders and architect did a great job. My lucky clients have so much space, natural light and fab storage to enjoy #kitchendesign #kitchen #kitchensofinstagram #modern #modernkitchen #glass #gloss #matt #kitchenextension #storage

The light was on my side yesterday when I headed to East Finchley to take a few snaps of my most recently completed kitchen. This super space reflects light from every angle aided by the mirror gloss cabinets, a stunning blue glass backsplash and an elegant quartz worktop #kitchen #kitchendesign #kitchenextension #kitchensofinstagram #modern #modernkitchen #gloss #glass

The love for a blue painted shaker kitchen shows no sign of abating. We painted the chimney breast in the same shade of blue to match and lined the cavity with patchwork tiles to match the backsplash in the kitchen. This wonderful kitchen extension is flooded with light and the colours pop beautifully in the space #kitchen #kitchendesign #kitchenextension #kitchensofinstagram #paintedkitchen #shakerkitchen #bluekitchen

*Wall units vs Windows*

This was a tricky space to work with. My client had this fabulous extension planned but was unsure about where to place the windows to maximise light and keep everything symmetrical. Having all the windows would mean no wall units, so we needed to also consider where to place those essential cups and glasses without them clunking around in drawers.

Step forward the bi-folding dresser unit which sits directly on the worktop and which is the perfect unit imho as it has a multitude of functions. You can use appliances inside it, it can house household items, it can serve as a pantry.

We spent a lot of time working on this design and a lot of consideration went into the position of all the windows. My very happy client sent me this snap of her finished kitchen. Everything is symmetrical. The lack of wall units hasn’t resulted in a compromise on storage. The windows are perfectly placed and a beautiful feature of the space.

Chimney breast conundrum! We see lots of kitchens

Chimney breast conundrum!

We see lots of kitchens where the chimney breasts need to stay in the room. Many times they aren't workable, so what do you do with them? I see lots of architects plans where they hide the chimney breast behind tall cupboards but I like to make a feature of them.

In our latest Finchley kitchen, my all things country loving client was very keen to keep her chimney breast and surround. She loved our idea to paint the surround and line her chimney breast with patchwork tiles which we also used for the kitchen backsplash (more photos coming soon).

Does anyone else have any creative ideas for kitchen chimney breasts? Would love to hear them and maybe steal them for next time...
