Mill Lane Cottage
Walnut base units and crisp white wall cabinets for a compact cottage kitchen that works hard.
Location
Village cottage
Service
Materials
Walnut, painted MDF, quartz
Timeline
10 weeks
The brief
A small kitchen with low ceilings and uneven walls needed more storage, more worktop and a warmer feel, without making the room feel crowded.
Our approach
We used rich walnut low down to ground the room and kept the wall cabinets light to bounce the light around. Every unit was scribed to the cottage's walls so there are no filler gaps, and a breakfast bar makes space for quick meals.

“We have twice the storage in the same space, and it finally feels like the heart of the house.”
