Contemporary Kitchen in Galway – Hazelwood Casa Collection

Bora hobs are designed to be compact, but they do require sufficient space within the island for both the hob and the integrated extraction system. In this kitchen, the island measures 2.7 metres long by 900mm wide and houses a recessed Bora Pure hob measuring 760mm, allowing for a clean, streamlined layout while maintaining practical workspace. Your designer will work with you to ensure the island is carefully planned for both functionality and flow.

A corner walk-in pantry can be designed to suit a range of layouts, but as a guide, we recommend a minimum size of 1160mm x 1160mm set at a 45-degree angle. This ensures the space is both practical and comfortable to use, while still providing generous, accessible storage.

Full-height cabinetry maximises storage by using the full vertical space, reducing unused gaps above units. It also creates a seamless, floor-to-ceiling finish, especially when paired with top boxes and subtle cornice detailing.

Yes, full-height cabinets are typically more expensive than standard units, as they require additional materials, manufacturing, and installation. However, in our experience, they offer better long-term value by maximising storage, reducing wasted space, and creating a more seamless, high-end finish.

A waterfall kitchen island is where the worktop material continues down the sides of the island, creating a seamless, high-end finish. It’s a popular choice in contemporary kitchen design as it adds visual impact while protecting the cabinetry edges.

A home bar can be integrated into the cabinetry using features such as bi-fold doors, shelving, and a wine cooler. This allows it to function as a dedicated drinks station while remaining concealed when not in use, maintaining a clean and cohesive kitchen design.
