THE MODERN CLASSIC
A CLASSIC FAMILY KITCHEN DEFINED BY SUBTLE LUXURY AND TIMELESS BALANCE
THE PROJECT
Located within a newly built family residence on Hampstead’s Winnington Road, this kitchen represents the seamless blend of architectural balance and timeless refinement. The owners envisioned a modern classic interior space, a kitchen design that’s quietly confident, tactile, and filled with natural light.
The ambition was to elevate everyday living through exceptional craftsmanship and understated luxury. The result is a serene, balanced classic kitchen that feels both contemporary and enduring, elegantly combining beauty, proportion and performance for family life.

THE KITCHEN
Flooded with daylight from a central skylight above the island, the kitchen is composed with a quiet sense of order and symmetry. Each element is perfectly aligned, from the generous 3.7m island positioned directly beneath the skylight to the marble-clad mantle that anchors the space with sculptural presence.
The bespoke cabinetry is handcrafted with lay-on doors and recessed ledge handles, bringing a contemporary refinement to classic design. Soft pastel tones are enriched by the gentle patina of antique bronze mirror and the expressive veining of natural marble, while fluted glazed wall cabinets introduce lightness and texture, creating a beautifully layered composition.


MARBLE FEATURE MANTEL
This kitchen celebrates the beauty of authentic materials and crafted detailing. Calacatta Vaglioro marble, with its sweeping natural veining, continues throughout the design, wrapping the mantle, floating shelf, splashback and extractor hood to create a dramatic yet harmonious focal point.
Contrasting textures, including fluted glass, brushed brass, stained oak interiors and smooth pastel cabinetry, form a palette that is cohesive and layered. Every finish has been carefully curated for the way it interacts with light and texture, bringing depth and warmth to the design. Together, these elements define a modern expression of classic luxury that is refined, timeless and distinctly Extreme.


GLAZED WALL CABINETS
Lighting plays an integral role in the character of the space. Fluted glass wall cabinets frame the sink area, while soft lighting integrated in shelving and cabinetry creates a warm, soft glow. An antique mirror feature panel covers this entire wall, wrapping around the wall cabinets and extending behind the shelves.
As daylight fades, the cabinetry lighting evolves from a gentle clarity to bathe the kitchen in a luminous glow. The atmosphere softens, transforming the space into an inviting setting for conversation, dining and refined evening gatherings.


HANDCRAFTED & PERFECTLY PROPORTIONED
Every element of the design demonstrates craftsmanship and proportion. From the balanced cornicing to the precisely jointed cabinetry, each detail reinforces a sense of bespoke permanence.
Oak-lined drawers and stained timber interiors bring warmth and authenticity, while the substantial kitchen island provides a sculptural focal point and a natural gathering place for family life.
The generous proportions of the kitchen allow Wolf appliances sit seamlessly within the design without overwhelming it. Custom larger door sizes and an oversized statement cooker hood maintain visual harmony across the space.

BESPOKE CORNER PANTRY
Behind the serene façade of the kitchen design lies a world of hidden practicality. The full-height corner pantry conceals organised storage and worktop appliances behind an extra wide opening for easy access.
Every component is exquisitely crafted in natural oak and tailored to optimise space and workflow, combining beauty with intelligent functionality.


BRASS TAPS & FIXTURES
Brushed brass hardware and fittings provide a subtle highlight to the pastel cabinetry, their warm tone complementing the antique bronze mirror and soft marble veining. These metal details add depth and definition without overpowering the room’s serene atmosphere, demonstrating how restraint can be the ultimate expression of luxury.
