Project Brief
For this eco-focused renovation in Cheltenham, the brief was to create a super-clean, minimalist kitchen while keeping sustainability and low-toxicity materials at the heart of the design.
The L-shaped kitchen combines a streamlined run of base cabinetry with a bank of tall units housing the fridge freezer and an open tea-point larder, providing necessary storage without compromising the calm, uncluttered aesthetic. Smeg appliances were specified throughout, bringing considered functionality and a cohesive design language to the space.
The result is a bright, refined kitchen designed to feel effortless, practical and enduring — with careful consideration given to the materials and products used throughout the project.
The L-shaped kitchen is paired with a tall run of units housing a dedicated tea point, larder and fridge freezer, creating a compact and efficient working space with everything close to hand.
The inclusion of a Smeg vented hob in the design avoids the need for an overhead extractor, and the inclusion of two full height ovens provides ample cooking space.
The tall run houses the fridge freezer and larder, alongside an open tea point designed to display the Smeg Bean to Cup Coffee Machine and create a dedicated space for drinks preparation.
By specifying integrated appliances, including the dishwasher and washing machine, the sink run maintains a clean, streamlined and minimalist aesthetic.
