Take a tour around a modern matt kitchen

The flat-fronted units have been spray-painted in a stylish grey.

The flat-fronted units have been spray-painted in a stylish grey. As one cupboard has to house the boiler, all the wall units have been made deeper than usual. Blanco Norte Silestone surfaces create a streamlined look. Martinique porcelain tiles were chosen to complement the space. They are shiny and easy to clean.

Glass-fronted units break up the run of wall cabinets and provide display space. The glass shelves are illuminated by LEDs for a touch of glamour.

The breadbin, kettle and toaster are housed behind a roll-up tambour door to keep the surfaces uncluttered. This smart unit hides any mess and small appliances.

The owner chose a dual-fuel range cooker and matching chimney extractor hood. An Azure glass splashback was used to bring colour to the neutral kitchen scheme. A beautiful and strong focal point, it frames the cooking area.
