Kitchen Before & After IV

By

 

The brief for this project was to remove internal walls and to convert the garage space into a large open plan kitchen, dining and living area in this 1980’s detached bungalow. The current kitchen had been installed in the eighties and was now completely outdated for the families needs.

The washing and drying facilities were originally housed in the integral garage, out of sight and out of mind! So an important part of the brief was to keep them hidden away.

Integrated Dishwasher, integrated microwave, built in oven, gas hob, integrated washing machine and tumble dryer, extractor, built in boiler, pan drawers, pull out storage, integrated fridge freezer, worktop preparation space and an island with a wine cooler also made up the brief.
