This kitchen began with a wide, empty space - a proper blank slate. The owners were building their dream home from scratch, and knew they wanted lots of opportunities for entertaining. The enormous proportions of the main room were understandably overwhelming, so they brought in kitchen specialist Cameron Interiors early in the build process to make things easier.
"The brief was very open," recalls Louise Delaney, design manager at Cameron Interiors. "It was very much an investigative start to the project. We wanted to try the kitchen in different areas in this big, modernist space." There are doors leading off to the garden, the utility and another quiet room, so lots of moving parts to consider, as well as the flow of what would ultimately be the hub of the house.
"We worked through various design scenarios with the layout, to understand how the whole space would work best. We tried placing the kitchen in different areas, but in the end we opted for this corner with the doors leading out to the garden."

You might think the process is purely creative, but designing knitted textiles requires a deep understanding of geometry and pattern calculations. It is intricate and often mathematical. I have learned that knitting demands a constant balance between artistry and engineering. Creating a new textile involves not only selecting colours and yarns but also considering the tensile strength, elasticity and drape of the material. That way, I ensure the final product is both aesthetically pleasing and functional. To me, this blend of creativity and technical precision is a fascinating aspect of knitted textile design.
