17 KITCHEN How was the kitchen planned? Main points: We created a big enough kitchen but didn’t need to include a dining area as the dining room was right next door. Lots of kitchen surfaces and a big tall airy window makes the kitchen look large and airy. Exposing the bare brick wall and using muted colour we wanted to create an arty and more urban feel to make sure that the kitchen design wasn’t neglected and fitted well in with the rest of the property. We painted a striking petrol blue feature wall which also hides a secret door in to the separate preparation kitchen and staff quarters.
