York Shaker Project

Traditional Green & Brass Shaker Kitchen

We've taken on the task of modernising a traditional semi-detached house in Fulford, York, by creating a timeless green and brass kitchen. The owners were looking for a way to create an open space in their home that would retain the traditional features they loved, such as the fireplace and the bay window.

The project started with removing a structural wall that separated the kitchen and dining room. This allowed us to combine these two rooms and create an open layout with plenty of natural light.

We repurposed the chimney into an alcove that houses an oven, extractor, and mini tea station. We built custom-made pillars to fit the width of the chimney walls. Having the doors made-to-order allowed these to be one single door rather than two sets of two, creating a more premium look.

We used the Stanton shaker range in Hunter Green with brushed brass handles to match the brass Quooker square taps.

The appliances are mainly from Rangemaster and Samsung. The Belfast unit was adapted to suit the Quooker tank, which typically wouldn't fit underneath.

The island was positioned to allow enough room all around and was completed with White Mirage Quartz worktops for the perfect finish. We installed a removable back door back panel to the island units, allowing for easy access to plumbing.

CAD Designs

We created the detailed 3D CAD renders whilst discussing the layout with the client to best visualise the space, how the units will work and give the best/most real representation of the room. A few small changes were made on site to improve the kitchens functionality once the space had been created and the kitchen could be better visualised.
