Sottsass Island in Sydenham, London

A plywood kitchen with soft baby blue laminate fronts, a Sottsass veneer island and stainless steel worktops.

This was the second kitchen we made for Becky. After working together on her previous home, she knew she wanted to use plywood again.

Function mattered as much as the materials. The sink, hob and fridge sit in a natural work triangle, so the kitchen flows well and feels easy to use every day.

With laminate and stainless steel on the outside, it was important for Becky to keep the plywood visible inside the cabinets and drawers. It gives the kitchen a warmer, more natural feel beneath the surface.

We love working with clients who are happy to choose materials with a bit of character.
