KITCHEN GOALS } how stunning is this German kitchen from @kutchenhaus_cardiff_swansea ๐Ÿ˜ they did an amazing job designing this one. There’s even a secret door in their leading to the utility. . This was a big space so the obvious thing to do was add an island, but it wasn’t working. So we left the layout to the experts and they delivered this! . We helped choosing the colours, finishes, worktops and ensuring the design worked with the rest of the downstairs which was an open plan layout. . There were MANY decisions to be made in this space, so why not pass all them to an interior designer. If you’re investing, then invest well. It’s worth it. . Don’t leave it until you’re gone to your 3rd kitchen supplier and seen your 6th design. We can help from day one. . Book in your free exploration call to discuss your 2025 kitchen plans. Planning ahead is key. Let’s see if we can work together to get you the best finish on your kitchen. .

~COMPLETED DESIGN~ @thegowerdeli ~ the most delicious little deli, based in Southgate. Perfect place for a coffee (@craftysmugglercoffee) . @privatechefchristos is a busy chef, who needed help to create the design of his deli which has been a dream of his for a long time. With so many decisions to make it’s hard for business owners to spend the time on projects like this whilst running their other businesses too. . Christos knew what he liked and what he wanted, he needed help to pull all these ideas into a coherent design so that there was a plan for the contractors to work on (@sa3carpentryandbuilding @obrienselectricalservices brought it all to life) . The design was simple, elegant, modern and adaptable for future development of the deli. There’s small touches of the Mediterranean in there, durable surfaces, and a kitchen perfect for a professional chef ๐Ÿง‘๐Ÿฝ‍๐Ÿณ . The best thing for me is the food, whether you eat in and devour one of Chef Christos famous Greek dishes, including pastries and small plates, or take away one of his meals to dine at home. Then there’s the deli which is stocked with sooooo many delights, my favourite was the Welsh Honey Buttrer and the range of preserves from @gowerpreserves - you’re spoilt for choice. . Seriously, go visit, you won’t be disappointed. . Thank you to Christos for trusting me with his dream project, it was a big deal for him which meant it was a huge deal for me. Grateful ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿฉต๐Ÿค . #Interiordesign #gowerlife #visitgower #deli #restaurantdesign
