Perfectly Proportioned

Aisling and Mike’s bespoke new kitchen has been meticulously designed in harmony with its surroundings, to achieve a beautiful and functional scheme for family living

‘The navy was a brave choice but I absolutely love it! We saw an advertisement for a Design Yard kitchen that we really liked. It was dark blue with walnut and the room looked similar in layout to ours, so I could really imagine how this look would work in our space. That’s what led us to Design Yard,’ says Aisling.

The kitchen Aisling and Mike inherited with the house didn’t suit the practical needs of their large family, so they wanted to really make the best of the spacious footprint of the open plan layout with a design truly bespoke to them. ‘We wanted to use the space as productively as possible to create a hub that would be really comfortable to spend time in and practical for our family’s needs, while also being a beautiful addition to the interior. The room has three sections, with the kitchen open to both the dining and sitting area, so it was important to achieve a natural connection between the three areas while making really good use of the space. This is where we not only enjoy breakfast, cook and relax but also where home-works are done; it really is the hub of the house so we had to get it right.’
