7 Amazing Bespoke Kitchen Design Features To Set Your Space Apart
January 12, 2022
From announcing exam results to gathering round to prepare the weekly Sunday roast, the kitchen often provides a backdrop to the most important moments of family life. And while achieving a highly functional design is crucial, there’s so much more to creating the perfect focal point to your home than simply assembling a series of cupboards and appliances.
Here at Ruach, we take the time to get to know you and your family in order to tailor our designs to suit your unique lifestyle and tastes. Ranging from custom-made handcrafted furniture to ingenious bespoke features, our personalised designs make a wonderful way to elevate your space and create something truly special. If you’re planning to renovate your kitchen, you might want to consider including some beautiful bespoke features in your design. To help you find fantastic inspiration for your upcoming project, we’ve gathered a collection of some of our favourite design details.
Elegant Bespoke Shelving
Achieving an organised and clutter-free kitchen is a must for a variety of reasons. While keeping worksurfaces clear will ensure your kitchen looks stylish and inviting, it also makes your home much easier to clean. Furthermore, when everything has its place, you won’t ever waste time searching for ingredients or utensils again.
Cupboards and drawers make great classic storage solutions. However, too many blank cupboard facias have the potential to leave your space lacking in character and feeling a little claustrophobic. We’ve added a fantastic touch of charm to the contemporary kitchen below by introducing beautiful bespoke wood shelving. The contrast between the natural finish and dramatic matt black and mirror surfaces makes a stunning feature, as well as providing the perfect spot to display our client’s collection of stylish crockery and glassware.
A Place To Showcase Your Favourite Items
We created a similar effect for a client in Sevenoaks by building a customised alcove into their kitchen island. The illuminated alcove has been specially designed to display three gorgeous pieces of antique silverware. The glass shelf, glowing lighting and luxurious teal finish establish a truly stand-out bespoke design feature, adding a quirky personal touch to this sleek modern interior.
The Perfectly Designed Pantry Cupboard
Combining traditional charm and amazing practicality, pantry cupboards are a highly sought-after kitchen feature. Many retailers allow you to customise your pantry unit with a bespoke arrangement of shelves, spice racks and drawers to complement your needs. Here at Ruach, our individually handcrafted pantry cupboards can be completely tailored to any dimensions and design, making them the ultimate luxury bespoke kitchen feature.
Storage That Maximises Every Inch
Creating a kitchen that perfectly brings together all the appliances, storage and worktop space you need to enjoy the most convenient and intuitive cooking experience is a must when it comes to making the most of your kitchen renovation project. And creating your own tailormade interior with clever custom storage features is a great way to maximise every inch of space while establishing a solution to your individual practical needs. From introducing slim pull-out compartments to sneaking in a handy little drawer, dedicating a bit of extra attention to detail to planning your kitchen storage will take your design to the next level.
A Bespoke Kitchen Island To Suit Your Space
Kitchen islands can make a fantastic practical and stylish addition to your design, offering handy extra storage, work surfaces and even space to position appliances. And what’s more, there are hundreds of ways to personalise your island to help you get the most from your new kitchen feature. Thanks to their ability to create laidback, casual seating, breakfast bars often make a popular addition to an island. However, if you’re looking for something suitable for family dining or more comfortable for young children, a bespoke dining island makes a lovely choice.
Beautiful Bench Seating That Doubles Up As Storage
As the bustling heart of your home, kitchens make a cosy and inviting place to relax and catch up on the day’s events, and thus there’s no better way to enhance your space than by creating a charming spot to sit and enjoy a cup of tea. Doubling up as a handy storage solution, bench seats can be built into kitchen islands or beneath windows to create a characterful and practical feature. They can also help if you’re looking to incorporate a dining table into your design.
Think Outside The Kitchen
Kitchens are so much more than just a place to cook and prepare food. And with the increasing popularity of open plan living, they often create a focal point to a larger multi-functional space. With this in mind, you might just want to look beyond your hob and fridge-freezer when planning your design. A bespoke dresser unit can make a fantastic addition to your space. And, from cocktail bars to record cabinets, with the option to tailor your unit to suit your lifestyle, there’s no limit to what you can create.
Planning your kitchen carefully and incorporating some bespoke features into your design is a wonderful way to elevate your space and create an interior that works for you.
