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.
