Pared-back & modern

Contemporary
kitchens.

Flat slab doors, matt surfaces and a pared-back palette — a calm, modern kitchen that lets the materials and the room do the talking.

01 What it is

Less, done well.

A contemporary kitchen is about restraint: flat slab doors, a quiet colour palette and considered details rather than decoration. Done properly it feels calm and uncluttered — and it photographs beautifully.

We build ours to the same standard as our shaker and in-frame ranges, so 'minimal' never means 'cheap'. Tall banks of larders, an island in a contrasting tone, integrated appliances and a seamless worktop give you a modern room that still feels warm to live in.

02 The details

What makes it feel modern.

  1. Slab doors

    Smooth, flat fronts with no frame or moulding — the contemporary base.

  2. Integration

    Appliances built in and concealed for an unbroken run.

  3. Contrast

    A second tone on the island or tall units to add depth without clutter.
