PROJECT DETAILS

The level of detail and thought that goes into the full scale refurbishment of a substantial grade II listed detached family home in Hampstead is nothing short of breath-taking.

We worked with the clients on this project to create a kitchen, utility / boot room and pantry that combined traditional cabinetmaking with a contemporary twist. The brief was to create a kitchen that was built to last –  both in terms of the design and the quality; future-proofing was the goal. This Hampstead project really has the best of both worlds – traditional, handmade cabinetry finished to the very highest standard and combined with the contemporary aesthetic of stainless steel industrial appliances.

Kitchen

The overall look and and feel is a classic London home designed with modern family living in mind. The details that have been so carefully assessed and implemented throughout the design process will ensure this project stays true to the original brief and provides the family with a series of spaces that are all about relaxed, sociable living.

Specifying the Spenlow cabinetry was an immediate and easy choice to ensure the cabinetry felt sleek and contemporary with the perimeter cabinetry painted in H|M ‘Tailored Grey’ and the island painted in H|M ‘Brolly Blue’ to really help anchor it within the room. The Quilp knobs on the cabinetry are finished in aged brass which really helps to soften the otherwise cool colour palette.

Cooking Run

The Wolf range cooker stands proud in a bespoke run adjacent to the utility room door. The positioning of the Wolf in front of the island with the main dining area located in under the glass lantern, provides maximum ease of use when entertaining – something this kitchen will see a great deal of in years to come. Friends and family are welcomed into the space and can easily perch at the island to enjoy pre-dinner drinks and snacks while the cook is busy finishing off bits and pieces on the other side of the island. The wine cooler is positioned on the island just along from the seating area and occupies the perfect spot with the large bespoke dresser cabinetry located opposite so that drinks can be served easily to guests arriving for dinner.

Island

On the prep side of the island, opposite the Wolf range cooker, is the main Kohler sink with aged brass taps by Perrin & Rowe as well as the Parthian hot tap for instant boiling water literally on-tap. Either side of the sink is the integrated Miele dishwasher and a pull out bin with a knife block insert in the drawer above so that food prep is easy and straightforward with everything you need instantly to hand.

The stainless steel Gaggenau French door fridge-freezer is positioned centrally and flanked by a tall crockery cupboard to the left hand side and a day pantry to the right hand side.

Pantry

The day pantry is also used for housing the coffee and tea making items as the main walk in pantry is just off the utility / boot room. There is plenty of storage in the day pantry drawers for everyday items with the main weight of dry food storage being taken care of within the walk in pantry.

Utility & Boot Room

Situated off the kitchen is the utility & boot room. With Spenlow cabinetry finished in H|M ‘Tailored Grey’ and built in bench storage the utility & boot room has an abundance of extra storage. As is typical of the space, utility rooms incorporate a sink area to help with heavy duty cleaning jobs. Belfast sinks are popular because of the large basin which is popular for cleaning larger items or soaking hand wash items of laundry. The integrated Miele washing machine and Miele tumble dryer ensure the room is fit for purpose.

Seating for three at this island means family members can perch for a quick breakfast or guests can enjoy pre-dinner drinks and snacks while the cook is busy finishing off bits and pieces on the other side of the island. A Miele wine cooler is positioned on the island just along from the seating area and occupies the perfect spot with a large bespoke dresser located opposite so that drinks can be served easily to guests arriving for dinner without getting in the way of the cook.

The dining area at the end of the kitchen is positioned perfectly with close proximity to the kitchen and easy access on the garden. With seating for 8 this is a great entertaining space for friends and family.

The perimeter cabinetry in this kitchen is finished in H|M paint colour ‘Tailored Grey’- a colour that feels really sleek and contemporary - and the island painted in ‘Brolly Blue’ to really help anchor it within the room. The Quilp knobs on the cabinetry are finished in aged brass which really helps to soften the otherwise cool colour palette.

This side of the island is used for food prep and features a sink with aged brass taps by Perrin & Rowe as well as the Parthian hot water tap. Under the counter either side of the sink is an integrated Miele dishwasher and a pull out bin with a knife block insert in the drawer above so that food prep is easy and straightforward with everything you need instantly to hand.

Finished in H|M paint colour ’Tailored Grey’ this large bespoke dresser is located opposite the island and provides essential storage for glassware and tableware – perfect for when one of the hosts needs to set the nearby dining table or serve drinks to guests sat at the island without disturbing the cook.

Situated just off the main kitchen is a utility/ boot room. Designed with Spenlow cabinetry and finished in H|M ‘Tailored Grey’ the room has a central sink area to help with heavy duty cleaning jobs. Belfast sinks are ideal for utility room spaces due to their large basins which helps make cleaning larger items or soaking clothes before loading them into the integrated washing machine located beneath the worktop.

Designed with modern living in mind, this London family home feels classic and timeless. The light and bright open plan space is zoned into areas for food prep (island), storage (glazed cabinetry), cooking (Wolf range cooker), dining and a utility/boot room and pantry are just a room away. The details that have been so carefully designed by Humphrey Munson who created a series of spaces that focus on relaxed, sociable living.

The stainless steel Gaggenau French door fridge freezer is positioned centrally and flanked by a tall crockery cupboard to the left hand side and a day pantry to the right hand side.

Concealed behind Spenlow cabinetry is a crockery cupboard which has five deep shelves that are perfect for storing glassware, tableware and servingware. This crockery cupboard is zoned in this way so that you only have to open one cupboard to access everything you need at mealtimes.
