Kitchen before
Inspired by the rural location, the owners of this pretty Victorian house decided to extend their small kitchen and demolish interior walls to create a big open-plan living space. This before shot shows the kitchen prior to the extension.

Kitchen cupboards
The door and drawer knobs are painted in the same blue tone of the dining room table.

Kitchen unit
The owners opted for neutral units and worktops to keep the kitchen as light as possible.
The granite worktop is from Surrey Furniture. The farmhouse sink is from Villeroy & Boch.
Kitchen sink
The owners chose the floral blinds and the green slate flooring to echo the teal tiles in the chimmey breast.
For similar blind fabric try Notting Hill in Duck Egg Blue from Fabricaz.
Kitchen corner storage
The curved units not only add extra storage space, but also prove practical as the sharp corners are no danger to young children.
Kitchen fridge storage
The fridge-feezer is housed in the dining area along with extra built-in storage.

Kitchen small storage
Despite the lack of wall units there is plenty of cleverly designed storage space, including slim pull-out drawers next to the hob.
Kitchen
A false chimney was built to make a feature of the cooker, then the owners used a bold teal for the tiles behind. The work, which included the extension, took six months and cost around £30,000.
The Neptune Chichester units are from Surrey Furniture.
