Homebuilding & Renovating Magazine - Cost effective ways to create your dream kitchen

Interior Designer North Wales

We’re very lucky and extremely pleased to have contributed to another edition of Homebuilding & Renovating Magazine this month.

The feature discussed ‘Cost effective ways to create your dream kitchen’ as we were able to create our own kitchen on a relatively small budget and is something that we get asked for help a lot with as not everyone has 30k to drop on a bespoke kitchen.

One of the ways we created our dream kitchen on a budget was to save on the doors and splash out on a more expensive worktop and to keep all the appliances that were integrated and behind doors as own brand products and spend more on those items that would be seen.

We also decided to go for items that we believed wouldn’t date so opted for handless white gloss units with a marble style quartz, something that is durable and practical that could also withstand the wear and tear of a kitchen and not go out of style. The addition of classic metro style tiles and simple globe pendants allowed the more expensive items such as the quartz and rangemaster cooker to shine out.

Grand Designs Magazine 2019

Did you know we were featured in the March issue of Grand Designs Magazine?

This was a very exciting moment for me as I have grown up watching Grand Designs and wanted to undertake a property renovation similar to those that you see in the magazines and TV shows so to be featured in the magazine was literally a dream come true.

For me Grand Designs is more than just about the interiors it’s about the whole house construction and interior design working together to create a home that works for you.

It was such an exciting day having the photographer here and getting to see our property, which we had painstakingly renovated with the help of builders, through other peoples eyes.

In the article we talk about what it was about the property that drew us to it, the little original gems we uncovered throughout the renovation and also the process we went through to get it finished.

Below are a few images of the magazine.
