Beautiful Storm Grey Shaker Kitchen

 We have one of our recently completed projects to share with you today. This storm grey shaker kitchen is part of a beautiful new extension which provides a perfect family space to gather and entertain.

 

The lay-on style furniture is painted in the wonderfully muted tones of Farrow and Ball with the perimeter cabinets in Pavillion Grey and the island painted in Mole's Breath. The 30mm Caesarstone Osprey worksurfaces contrast beautifully with the rest of the kitchen.



 



 

 Below you can see the beautiful light flooded extension with its large folding, sliding doors to the garden and roof lights.

 





The stainless steel appliances are from Neff apart from the wine fridge which is from Caple. The cabinet handles and knobs are chrome.

 

The Franke Ariane undermounted sink is complimented with a Franke Eiger tap and a Quooker Design boiling hot water tap. The island is given extra focus with these simple hanging pendant lights and the under pelmet cabinet lighting gives a subtle wash of colour to the kitchen back wall.

 

We hope you like this kitchen? If you have a furniture project you'd like to discuss whether it be domestic or commercial then please don't hesitate to get in touch!



Cool, Calm and Collected Kitchen

We wanted to share a cool, calm and collected Kitchen with you today situated in a wonderful space full of character. 

The cabinets are lay-on shaker in style, hand-painted in Pearl Ashes (also an Aga colour) with stunning Silestone Bianco Rivers work surfaces.

The accents of stainless steel and chrome feature throughout the area, including the smart ironmongery from Hafele. The triple fridge unit is from John Lewis and we designed the surrounding piece of furniture specifically to house this.

Below is the Franke Rotondo ceramic undermounted sink in the island which is complimented by the Perrin & Rowe Phoenician Mixer Tap.

The large kitchen area is further accentuated by the tall vaulted ceiling with stunning oak beams. The back wall features two Neff CircoTherm built-under ovens with a Neff Flexinduction hob and the bespoke canopy holds the Miele integrated extractor neatly.

Light floods through the beautiful arched window below.

We'd love to hear your thoughts on this kitchen. If you would be interested in finding out more about us and how we can help you with a future project then please get in touch.

Glossy and Sleek Commercial Office Kitchen

Here at Planet we love to get involved in a variety of different projects so when a commercial opportunity came up and we were asked by a local company to redesign their office kitchen area we were more than happy to oblige! 

The brief was to create a smart and practical space with a small seating area if possible.

The kitchen is a lay-on style with white Parapan flat doors with recessed handles. The high gloss finish reflects the light from the large windows beautifully giving a real sense of space.   

The stunning curved sit at bar area below was formed out of Corian and makes an ideal area for coffee or lunch. Corian is great to work with as the design possibilities are endless. This kitchen also features curved upstands which is a great little detail and hygenic too.  

The Miele induction hob is flush fitted into the Corian worktop and the clever Caple downdraft extractor behind can be hidden away when not in use...

...as you can see in the photo below, no extractor!

The Neff ovens and warming drawer allow for various cooking options, you could comfortably cook for a dinner party in this compact kitchen space! 

The Miele coffee machine is integrated into a wall unit rather than having a freestanding one taking up worktop space. The blue glass splashbacks not only look great but are hygenic and easy to clean which is important in this environment.

The tall cabinets below provide plenty of storage space and the addition of white venetian blinds is in keeping with the contemporary feel.

What do you think of this as an office kitchen? Would having a kitchen like this at work encourage you to have different lunches possibly? Do you like the materials that have been used? Do let us know what you think.

Beautiful Period Home Refurbishment

We've got an exciting project to show you today!

We were asked to provide the furniture throughout this newly remodelled period house and we knew that the result was going to be stunning as the property belonged to a retired architect. We were involved at an early stage, which is always great as we can influence the design to make the best of the available space.

The brief for the kitchen was to create a simplistic and functional space for cooking, socialising and relaxing with the emphasis being on design and materials. This was achieved with a mostly white and stainless steel colour scheme against a real oak floor which gives the room warmth. 

The client wanted a focal point for the kitchen and as the house is situated in a village with beautiful woods nearby, decided to incorporate a photo of them in bluebell season, for which we provided the photography which was fun to shoot! The photo was then enlarged and applied to the wall behind the sink run with clear glass on top for protection. This really is a beautiful and unexpected way of adding colour to a neutral space and can be changed when required.

Heres a closer shot of the photograph splashback which I'm sure you'll agree looks stunning.

The kitchen is lay-on in design with hand painted shaker doors and frames with brushed stainless steel bar handles. As we were involved in the design from an early stage we were able to recess the Neff ovens and two cooks pantrys (at the back of the photo below) neatly into the kitchen wall. The doors of the cooks pantrys fold back to create maximum storage and small working areas inside. 

The work surfaces throughout are white quartz adding to the modern but understated feel and the island has beautiful stainless steel legs and supports running around it's perimeter. The Neff induction hob is flush fitted and we also designed in an integrated chopping board. As you can see below there is a cosy corner with a sofa to relax in along with seating at the far end of the island.

We also designed these handpainted bookcases in the living room either side of the beautiful fireplace. 

They are painted in shades of grey from Farrow and Ball and have cockbead detailing to each shelf and frame. 

The bookcase below also discreetly houses the T.V. 

The bi-fold doors can be opened and closed accordingly.



The client also requested a small bar area adjoined to the lounge which we thought was a really neat idea! Ideal for entertaining especially at large social gatherings.



Here's another bookcase we installed below.



And finally we designed this beautiful desk using the same detailing as the kitchen island.

We were very lucky to be involved in such a wonderful project. What do you think about the kitchen with it's bluebell splashback? Do you like the muted colour scheme used throughout? And the bar area next to the lounge? We'd love to know your thoughts.
