This beautiful, contemporary kitchen designed for the Rubin household, is so warm and full of character that you instantly feel welcome.

In a modern take on classic design, smooth, slab doors sit within handsome framing. Framed kitchens are most commonly seen with Shaker doors, but this blend offers contemporary refinement and appealing detail for the most discerning of eyes.

The island pops in a sweet, Dry Rose pastel, grounded by the rich, jewel tones of Copse Green. Industrial flair and heritage touches offer interest and further simplistic detailing; a corner of exposed shelving, complementary metal pendants, black knurled handles, with crisp white metro tiling for a striking contrast.

But the charm lies in the personality oozing out of this kitchen; the island-end bookshelf, cosy window seat, the treasures on display, and the timber breakfast bar inviting you to pull up a chair.
