Kitchen Highlights
A More Open Approach to Classic Kitchen Design
Hunter Green cabinetry, floating oak shelving, and the simplified box canopy create a classic kitchen that feels more open and relaxed throughout the space. Removing overhead cabinetry allows natural light, shelving, and feature details to become part of the design rather than overwhelming the room visually.
Storage and Zoning Designed Around Family Living
A hide-and-slide larder pantry positioned between the integrated fridge and freezer creates a dedicated preparation and storage zone within the kitchen. The large L-shaped island with seating for five allows cooking, dining, and entertaining to happen comfortably within one connected family space.
Traditional Features Updated for Modern Living
The double Belfast sink, Rangemaster cooker, Quooker Flex tap, and full quartz backsplash combine timeless kitchen features with the practicality needed for modern family life. Open shelving to the rear of the island also keeps cookbooks and everyday essentials close to hand without interrupting the cleaner overall design.
Natural Oak Accents That Soften the Darker Palette
Floating Halifax Oak shelving and the solid oak breakfast bar introduce warmth and natural contrast against the Hunter Green cabinetry. Combined with reflective quartz surfaces and gold knurled hardware, the layered materials help the kitchen feel warmer, more grounded, and visually balanced throughout the space.
Quality Assured
“We’ve always loved classic kitchen design, but we wanted this space to feel more open and modern. John completely understood that balance from the beginning, from the simplified canopy and open shelving to the island layout and hidden pantry storage. The craftsmanship, installation, and attention to detail throughout the entire project exceeded all expectations. We genuinely enjoyed every part of the journey with MLK and would highly recommend the entire MLK team.” Sarah & Declan, Co. Galway
