the STYLE RULES
FIND YOUR FORMAT
For ultimate versatility and for everything to have its own place, combine full-height wall and floor cabinets with above-counter units and open shelving. Integrated appliances also provide a clean look.
MIX MATERIALS
Introduce subtle pattern with white marble-effect worktops and a light wood-look laminate on floors. Long white wall tiles laid in a herringbone pattern add further interest.
EMBRACE MINIMALIST STYLE
Opt for frameless, slab-fronted cabinets for a seamless look and effortless functionality. Team with simple door and drawer handles.
PICK INVITING SHADES
Swap gloss for a contemporary matt finish in a soft pastel blue or green colourway. Contrast with terracotta lighting and accessories.
