Having a great idea for your new kitchen is one thing; executing that idea is quite another. The owner of this 1870 Victorian house in the London suburb of Teddington wanted a large hidden pantry in a well-functioning yet airy kitchen. Ftting all of that neatly into the space available required a professional eye, so she called on Tim Higham of Higham Furniture to bring it to life.
“The [owner] has a very good sense of style and knows what she wants, but we had to interpret that and work with the property and the space we were given,” he says.
The team crafted a beautiful modern-rustic kitchen with an elegant, elevated island and, hidden behind cabinet doors, a warm yellow pantry with masses of storage.
