This kitchen project in Storrington, West Sussex, brought together a considered colour palette with practical, everyday design. The client's cabinetry was expertly colour-matched to Farrow & Ball's Esk Reed Green, a soft, earthy green that gives the kitchen real depth and character while still feeling calm and easy to live with day to day.

Paired with the Reed Green cabinetry are drawers finished in an Arlington Oak style, adding warmth and natural texture that balances beautifully against the depth of the paint colour. Practical detailing runs throughout the kitchen, from a traditional Belfast sink paired with an elegant bridge tap in an antique brass finish, to sleek quartz worktops and matching upstands that keep the whole space feeling cohesive and easy to maintain.

Clever design touches make the kitchen as functional as it is stylish. A bespoke open shelving unit provides a lovely spot for displaying cookbooks and favourite kitchen pieces, while integrated LED under-cabinet lighting adds both atmosphere and practical task lighting across the worktops. The finished kitchen strikes a warm, characterful balance, bringing together thoughtful colour choices with the everyday practicality that busy family life demands.
