Solid oak cabinets have been hand-painted in a neutral shade and finished with Macassar ebony panels in this stylish kitchen. The island features a stepped ebony support and a crackled glass breakfast bar teamed with leather stools.

A large wine cooler is situated near the seating area, while the oven and microwave are grouped together close to the hob and wet area to create a working triangle. The units are topped with off-white composite worktops and contrast with the cabinets. Not only user-friendly, with its separate seating booth, it's also a very sociable place.

The round breakfast bar has been created using Rose Cracked Ice Glass. It's produced from three layers of glass, which, when cut to shape, shatters the inner pane creating a crackled effect.

A built-in double oven and microwave form a neat appliance tower at an accessible level. There's ample workspace to the side and in front so there's always somewhere to put down hot dishes.
