1. The Paint Colours & Hardware\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
It’s exciting when our customers pick a colour that we have never seen on our cupboards before!!\u00a0Of course we love our range of deVOL paint colours very much, they’re perfect and they’re timeless, but it is rather cool\u00a0to see a Shaker Kitchen painted in this dark olive green. It looks so smart and I really adore it.\u00a0It’s a bespoke colour which means we can’t give you a shade name but do remember that we can match and paint your Shaker Kitchen to any colour you would like, this will cost a little more than if you go for one of our 12 Shaker colours but what a great way to make your kitchen extra personal. The cupboard catches, knobs and cup handles here are from our Bella Brass range. We like to keep some things just for our kitchen customers, so the Bella Brass range isn’t available to purchase separately – but our handcrafted\u00a0deVOL hardware is and I think you’ll really love it…<\/p>\n

2. The sink & Tap<\/strong><\/p>\n
To match the hardware the customers\u00a0had one of our iconic deVOL Aged Brass ‘Ionian’ taps, made in collaboration with Perrin & Rowe. I may be a tiny bit biased, but I think our\u00a0exclusive brass finish is as good as it gets… if you can’t find a pair of vintage taps in good working order\u00a0(we know the struggle!!) then our Aged Brass collection is for you. The sink is a Villeroy & Boch ‘Farmhouse 80’ and there’s an integrated dishwasher just to the right of it. It’s a great idea to have your dishwasher next to your sink, you can rinse plates and mugs and easily pop them out of sight to be cleaned later. It’s amazing how good design can make everything a little less stressful and a little more fun.<\/p>\n

3. The Flooring\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
The Hove Kitchen had an exceptionally well finished Pandomo concrete floor. Subtle little swirls, ever so slight variations in tone and a smooth polished finish. A hardwearing material that\u00a0will take a great deal of use and wear and tear and an impeccable\u00a0choice for this contemporary kitchen. And there’s the rug… we were chatting about this on our Instagram the other day – isn’t it nice to have\u00a0a rug or a little sofa or armchair with a few squishy cushions in your kitchen!? Yes a kitchen can be a busy and a messy place, but\u00a0we love the idea that soft textiles can make a kitchen look and feel a little less kitcheny.<\/p>\n

4. The Worktops\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
The worktops are ‘Lagoon’ Silestone\u00a0– probably the most popular choice for our customers who want the look of marble, but don’t actually want marble!!\u00a0All work surfaces have their pros and their cons, but sometimes you just want something you don’t really have to worry too much about. Silestone worktops are man-made from 90% natural quartz, they’re\u00a0highly resistant to scratches stains and acids and\u00a0have antibacterial properties too. That’s one of our beautiful and brand new deVOL Hanging Rails on the end of the island too, a little added sparkle and the perfect spot to hang tea towels and linens.<\/p>\n
– We only supply and fit worktops as part of a deVOL Kitchen\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0– The deVOL Hanging Rail – www.devolkitchens.co.uk<\/a>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

5. The Lighting\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
We have said this before but lighting\u00a0is a really important part of your new kitchen and picking it can be really difficult. A beautiful big statement light or old chandelier can look so fabulous but if in doubt, keeping it simple always\u00a0looks good and the owners of the Hove Kitchen did just that. Cool round filament bulbs\u00a0on black wire\u00a0hanging above the island were just enough along with a couple of\u00a0Workstead wall lights either side of the cooker for\u00a0an extra glow.<\/p>\n
