The story

Dark gothic-arch oak doors with iron handles and a granite worktop made this L-shaped kitchen feel heavy. The tiles and cooker were staying — the faces and top needed a lighter, two-tone look.

We fitted duck-egg blue base units and cream wall units with brass handles, plus a new marble-effect worktop. Same tiles and cooker; completely different personality.

Before and after make the jump obvious: heavy dark oak to soft blue and cream. A strong example of how colour and handle choice can rewrite a kitchen without moving the footprint.
