An impressive island creates a sleek stage for living in this beautiful, minimal family kitchen design in Windsor. The client's love for cooking and entertaining as a family was a key consideration in the design process. We worked closely with Lewandowski Architects to bring the concept for the new bespoke-style kitchen design to life and ensure a seamless flow between the kitchen and the connecting living spaces, indoors and outdoors.

With its bulthaup kitchen furniture and Teddy Edwards cabinetry a striking modern kitchen living space has been created where minimalism meets bespoke statement design. This show-stopping kitchen designed by Kitchen Architecture isn't just a place to cook; it's a statement living space ideal for entertaining and grand dining. The clients, a family of four with a busy professional schedule, envisioned a space that seamlessly blended modern minimalism with a touch of warmth and natural beauty. The result is both visually striking and perfectly suited to their needs.

This bulthaup kitchen living space has become a hub of the home for a family of five and doubles up as a versatile entertaining area for dinner parties, standing events, and impromptu drinks.

The island, with its view of the garden, enhances the owner’s cooking experience, while the mix of cooking surfaces (induction, gas, and teppanyaki) offers flexibility in cooking styles. With healthy balanced meals always a top priority for our wonderful client, the appliances being chosen were always going to play a crucial part in the final layout.

Storage was a key consideration, so in addition to the large island, there is a hidden pantry, and vast work surfaces provide plenty of space to prep and serve. A raised bar provides a practical solution for everyday use beyond breakfast, and an outdoor kitchen creates a secondary cooking space that our clients enjoy using frequently, especially in the summer. The outdoor kitchen has a charcoal grill, gas grill, and gas hob to cook meals outside—ideal for family and entertaining. An adjoining bar and stools create a very sociable space. The space is a fine example of a designer and client working together to deliver a sociable kitchen living space that works for them.
