Solid oak furniture has been spray-painted in a classic sage colour. The island extractor has a custom-made housing to fit neatly into this traditional scheme. The wooden table, chairs and cream-painted dresser complete the look.

2/7 Cooking area
Two ovens and a warming drawer are built in to a single stack, making economical use of the space. A step away, an induction hob has touch-sensitive controls and pan-size recognition. The hob, oven and sink are together and the crockery drawers are beside the dishwasher, so it's very functional and you don't have to move around too much.
