CURVED CONTEMPORARY
Why not add a curve to your chocolate cabinetry? This smooth, metallic material on these Porter and Jones cabinets give the impression of melted chocolate – in a sleek and modern way. The kitchen’s curved edges and floor-to-ceiling wood grain cabinet wall, with built-in appliances, makes for a great design. Add some foliage and it feels cosy for autumn; incorporate some brass accents and it is elegant for contemporary hosting. The perfect balance. www.porterandjones.com
A COATING OF PAINT
Sometimes it can be good to keep it simple with some shaker cabinetry – and what a cosy space this makes? The brown shaker cabinetry combined with a wooden block countertop, wooden flooring and the high ceilings in this Victorian home makes for a gorgeous space – ready to be adorned with personal decorations and artwork. www.devolkitchens.co.uk
AN ELEGANT DESIGN
The latest innovation from LEICHT design at McNally Living is their Bahia kitchen cabinets. The cabinets consist of a veneer front with an exciting surface created by its vertical groove structure. The cabinets blend into one elegant piece of furniture where you can’t tell the door joints from the design– and that is the beauty of it. The backing material of the veneer is made from a high-density wood-based material with dimensional stability. A very elegant and practical design to fit the chocolate trend this season. www.mcnallyliving.ie
GLOSSY CHOCOLATE
This statement design has an undeniably dramatic impact. The scheme features striking cabinetry in Macassar ebony high gloss for a premium contemporary design-led aesthetic. The highly distinctive cabinetry has tiger-like stripes and is made from wood. It creates a super cool vibe, especially with the brass light fittings and vintage-mirrored splashback. These additions elevate the darker cabinetry and make for a cool and well-designed space with natural light flowing in. www.oconnorsofdrumleck.ie
MIX AND MATCH
This kitchen boasts the brilliance of a dark marbled countertop and a show-stopping splashback, set as the backdrop to a woodgrain kitchen. The combination of the smooth marble with the woodgrain cabinet faces makes for a cool and cosy look. www.rhatiganandhick.ie
L-SHAPED DELIGHT
The chosen textures and colours in this kitchen create warmth in the space, which will be especially effective this time of year. The gold vein through the splashback creates a gorgeous effect which brings the whole room together. We are seeing these butcher block countertop additions more and more as they are so useful for surface space and practicality, as well as looking textured and fabulous. www.kubeinteriors.com
INTEGRATE
The iQ700 appliance range from Siemens has been designed to integrate, making it simple to create a kitchen with a cohesive style. These built-in ovens look great against a darker backdrop and are seriously convenient for modern day life. Look out too for dishwashers, warming drawers and integrated coffee machines. www.siemens-home.bsh-group.com
