Tess & Craig, London SE1

A harmonious balance between high-end design and a family home

Tess and Craig, residing in a tranquil street in Peckham, embarked on a project that struck a balance between high-end design and a family home. The house itself was completely gutted, providing an empty slate which granted us creative freedom with the kitchen and utility room. Storage was a crucial aspect of the project, ensuring they had ample space for hiding away any kids' toys when hosting friends and family.

Tess and Craig wanted the design to contrast their light-toned ceiling / wall / floor combination. To achieve this, we opted for our durable Green (Verde Comodoro) Fenix and Cherry Veneer Plywood to enhance the home's rich hues. They decided on a cheerful Diespeker terrazzo worktop for the kitchen island, which complements the overall aesthetic.

The kitchen also includes a large, durable sink, plentiful storage for groceries and kitchenware, a built-in oven and microwave, and a separate utility room. The middle island consists of multiple drawers and a concealed charging point for phones, while the storage unit behind the island was designed to store toys, paperwork and a drinks cabinet. Grooved doors and open shelving add light and character to the unit, making it a welcoming area to make drinks for guests. By incorporating curved edges and playful, grooved doors elsewhere in the kitchen design, the perfect balance between form and function was achieved.
