Modern Kitchen Design For A Traditional Home

We love the combination of our modern 'Gara' kitchen inside this idyllic traditional-style cottage! It’s a superbly designed fusion of old-world charm and modern kitchen design.

We love the combination of our modern 'Gara' kitchen inside this idyllic traditional-style cottage! It’s a superbly designed fusion of old-world charm and modern kitchen design. 

Showcasing our gloss doors in a soothing neutral colour scheme, this kitchen beautifully reflects both natural and artificial light to give the illusion of a bigger and brighter kitchen. 

The kitchen doors are from our Gara range and finished in gloss White and Dust Grey. This two-tone effect combined with the gloss finish on the doors creates a wonderfully modern kitchen without compromising on the character and charm of the cottage. 

The kitchen door handles are from the Malvern range by Crofts & Assinder and are in Brushed Steel. Their curves and rounded edges add a touch of class and create a balance between contemporary and traditional styles.

The floor-to-ceiling kitchen units are a particular highlight of the kitchen and were bespoke designed, so they fit neatly under the wooden beams. These units house two integrated ovens and supply ample storage for the client. There’s even dedicated space for wine! 

One of the key aspects of kitchen design is lighting. Older properties like this need to be well lit as the windows are often much smaller than modern properties. We chose to install ample task lighting as well as under-cabinet strip lighting to illuminate the kitchen. This shows off the stone flooring in all its glory and opens up the kitchen. We think this makes all the difference. 

“With the cottage being so old, the decision to go for a contemporary design was very brave, but, it has worked beautifully with the old beams and low ceiling, giving it a real feeling of space.” 

Simon, Kitchen Designer 

This kitchen is a fitting example of how a bold decision to install a modern kitchen into a traditional property can have such a great end result. This is where you can really see the Kettle Co difference. Everything is in the design. 

From start to finish, the layout, choice of doors, materials and lighting has been meticulously planned. This has resulted in a wonderfully unique kitchen that adds practicality and charm to this beautiful home.
