What Is a Bespoke Kitchen?
A bespoke kitchen design in Richmond or any other location is a custom-made kitchen designed to fit your needs, not just the spaces in your kitchen/dining area. These kitchens are designed with your lifestyle and personal preferences in mind.
What Is a Painted Shaker Kitchen?
Dating back to the eighteenth century, Painted Shaker kitchens are designed with natural tones and a minimalist design. These kitchens went out of fashion in the early 20th century and became popular again in the mid-20th century. Another resurgence was experienced in the early 21st century – and the style remains popular today. The main elements in a Shaker painted kitchen include:
- Symetrical cabinets
- Flat center panels
- Square edges
- Minimal detailing
- Extra drawers (optional)
- Creative storage space options
- Elegance and durability
- Pine or light wood is a common material used
Traditionally, Shaker kitchens were blue, green, or red. Today, many colours work well in a Shaker kitchen. Colour options also include classic white and cool tones like Dove Grey and Porcelain are popular. Stone, Mussel, and other warmer tones create a cozy kitchen feel. Inset cabinets can also be included in your design. This is a modern touch where the cabinet front is flush.
