Full-stave oak on the island forms a breakfast bar and warms up the muted grey quartz composite worktops elsewhere. High stools at the island unit are ideal for breakfast and informal dining.

3/8 Induction hobs
Not only does this glass cabinet store spices, it hides any cooking mess from guests. Both the domino wok hob and four-zone hob use induction technology. This means that for compatible pans to heat up, they need to be in contact with the hob. To achieve this with a wok, the domino hob is recessed in the middle.

8/8 Tall cabinetry
Floor-to-ceiling cabinetry provides a wall of storage so that nothing is left out on the worktops. Handleless kitchen doors are a great way to give a sleek, streamlined feel. Limestone tiles cover the floor and create a sense of brightness in the kitchen.
