#mytomhowleykitchen

@redcliffhouse_renovation This impressive space has three main zones – a handcrafted kitchen with an island at its heart, a sociable dining zone, and a comfortable living area. Our distinctive colour, Avocado, was chosen, combined with warm oak internals and Caesarstone worktops.

@understated_luxury_living This kitchen is a beautiful example of how you don't need to use bold colours to create a striking end result. Our Devine design, with its column details and sophisticated grey paint colour, adds depth and interest while considered styling and modern appliances complete the look.

@our.cambridge.home A bespoke kitchen island adds a unique twist to the heart of this home with its curved design and striking Lithadora colourway. The whole space strikes the perfect balance between traditional aesthetics and contemporary flair.

@mrandmrsbrenovation This sophisticated shaker kitchen perfectly balances style with function. It features a host of practical storage solutions, a calming colour palette, an efficient layout and contemporary finishing touches.

@projectsw6 We love the simplicity and calming feel of this beautiful family kitchen. Classic shaker style cabinetry adds a sense of character to the contemporary space, finished with crisp white surfaces and considered styling.

@csf.home This family kitchen epitomises the simple beauty of traditional shaker design. The striking central island and sophisticated finishing touches help to create a relaxed and inviting environment, perfect for cooking and entertaining.

@woodlandsfarm__ The perfect blend of old and new. This stunning space balances original farmhouse features with a modern country-style kitchen design, finished in our beautiful paint colour, Moonstone.

@our.hardwickhouse This kitchen is the perfect backdrop for modern family living. A timeless colour palette, sleek worktop and state-of-the-art appliances combine to create a space that’s both functional and full of charm.

@that_ealing_feeling We're just a little bit obsessed with this dramatic Devine design. Our Nightshade paint colour marries beautifully with the contemporary crittall doors and warm herringbone flooring.

@lifestyle.by.lucinda Expertly crafted and beautifully styled. The considered kitchen layout offers an efficient and functional flow, whilst a soft colour palette and features such as the open shelving inject personality and warmth in keeping with the look and feel of the stunning period property.

@our_kentish_lodge The owners of this property reconfigured their kitchen and living areas to create a space perfect for modern family living. Real emphasis was put not only on the practicality of the kitchen layout but the symmetry, clean lines and flow of the design, creating a space that's simply a joy to be in.

@_wallsandwine This stunning Edwardian home oozes charm and sophistication. The kitchen incorporates a large central island, an incredible array of appliances and informal seating, creating the perfect space for cooking, entertaining and relaxing.
