Project Overview

At The Kitchen Renovators, we specialise in transforming challenging and outdated spaces into beautiful, functional kitchens. Our latest project involved a homeowner who was eager to bring a modern touch to their kitchen in a historic house. The space was unconventional, and the pre-purchased kitchen units were not suited to the layout. However, the client had a clear vision for a functional and stylish kitchen. This case study demonstrates how we successfully overcame the challenges to create a custom, high-quality kitchen that met the client’s needs.

The Kitchen Makeover Brief

The client came to us with the following goals for their kitchen makeover:

  • Fit pre-purchased kitchen units into a non-standard space.
  • Create a U-shaped kitchen layout that is practical for the room size.
  • Ensure the kitchen is both modern and functional with high-end finishes.
  • Incorporate seamless worktops for a contemporary, sleek look.
  • Adapt the pantry unit design to better suit the space.
  • Customise cabinetry and install additional features, such as a corner storage area for convenience.

The Kitchen Makeover

1. Colour Palette & Aesthetic

The client wanted a modern, clean design that would brighten the space and complement their home’s aesthetic. Our design focused on neutral tones to create a fresh and airy atmosphere while ensuring it was both practical and visually appealing.

2. Custom Kitchen Units

The pre-purchased kitchen units were initially designed for a showroom, but we adapted them to fit the unique space. Our team carefully measured and customised the units to work in the room, ensuring a seamless fit and maintaining the integrity of the original design.

3. Worktop Installation

One of the key features of this project was the acrylic solid surface worktops. These high-quality worktops were chosen for their durability and sleek appearance. Our expert team ensured the worktops were installed seamlessly, enhancing the modern look of the kitchen while providing a practical, low-maintenance surface for daily use.

4. Custom Pantry Unit

The client originally requested a pantry unit near a window, but after assessing the layout, we realised it would be better suited to another area of the room. With no fuss, we moved the pantry to the other side and ensured it fit perfectly within the new layout, maintaining functionality and flow.

5. Expert Fitting and Seamless Design

The client required custom modifications to ensure the kitchen fit perfectly. From custom cornices to sourcing extra doors to accommodate appliances like the washing machine and dishwasher, we ensured everything matched the original design. Our attention to detail ensured that every element, including cabinetry, cornices, and door fittings, worked together for a seamless final look.

The Results

The completed kitchen was a stunning transformation that perfectly matched the client’s vision. Despite the challenges presented by the unusual space and pre-designed kitchen units, we managed to adapt everything to create a functional, modern kitchen. The acrylic solid surface worktops, custom cabinetry, and thoughtful layout changes turned the room into a sleek, stylish, and highly functional kitchen that now perfectly suits the client’s needs.
