Kitchen cupboards
The larder sits directly above two fridge drawers, so all the food storage is in one area. Thin wire shelves in the door provide added storage.
Hotpoint sells this fridge.
Kitchen appliances
A built-in stainless-steel microwave and coffee machine match the finish of the fridge drawers, and take clutter away from the worktops.
The microwave and coffee machine are from Zanussi.
Blue kitchen tiles
After the kitchen installation was completed, pale blue glass tiles were chosen to ensure they complemented the colour and design of the kitchen.

Kitchen dishwasher
The dishwasher drawers save on energy as they allow the owners to do a half load. They also blend in seamlessly with the design of the cabinet doors.
Visit Fisher & Paykel for these dishwasher drawers.
Kitchen wine cooler
The wine cooler was positioned to face the dining area, so it is easy to access at dinner parties.
The wine cooler is from Caple.
Kitchen-diner
The adjoining dining area has a quirky feel, thanks to the display of wall clocks and numbered chairs. Although the space is open plan, the kitchen and dining area have individual feels.
The chairs are by Billiani.
