Natural oak, white lacquer and marble in an open-plan family kitchen, with a waterfall peninsula and a tall oak wall that hides the ovens and pantry.

The brief
Priya and her family knocked two rooms into one big living space and needed a kitchen that could handle breakfast chaos, homework and dinner parties, while still looking calm from the sofa.
The design
A tall wall of oak holds the ovens, pantry and a coffee cupboard, balanced by white handleless wall units that seem to float. The marble peninsula wraps down to the floor in a waterfall edge and seats three, so whoever is cooking is never cut off from the conversation.
The build
We matched the oak veneers across the tall doors so the grain flows from one door to the next. The marble was templated once the cabinets were in, then cut and installed in a single day. The whole project, including the knock-through, took five weeks on site.
The price in the quote was the price we paid. No surprises, no extras halfway through, and the team finished two days early. We've already recommended them to three friends.
