This kitchen was designed for The Daily Telegraph/House and Garden Fair, showhouse 29 June to 2 July 2000. Being organised by the IDDA (now The British Institute of Interior Design) the theme was a Meditanien Villa look. Tim Wood designed the kitchen area and combined the dining room designed by Penelope Hughes-Ross of Capstone Interior Design and an open garden area next to it by Kevin Mc Cloud
This bespoke kitchen was made from maple with quilted maple inset panels. All the drawers were made of solid maple and dovetailed and the handles were specially designed in pewter. The work surfaces were made from white limestone and the sink from a solid limestone block. A large storage cupboard contains baskets for food and/or childrens toys, a slate base for putting hot food on and maple double sockets for electrical appliances. This maple kitchen has a pale and stylish look with timeless appeal.
