On arrival back from Tenerife, Ciaran found that a copy of "Beautiful Kitchens" (February 2014) had been sent in the mail to him. Our kitchen, handcrafted by Dean Cooper Furniture, is featured in this edition.
Photography in the Beautiful Kitchens feature is by Rory Corrigan while the feature is written by Judith Robinson-Lyttle
A picture of our kitchen made the contents page!
The caption is "There is always room for extra guests in this glass-walled dining space with bench"
"The Right Angle: Every inch of space has been maximised to incorporate sleek innovative kitchen design"
Myself and the dog posed for the picture on the right hand side
"Ciaran designed a light-filled structure to house the new kitchen and dining area, which opens into a small courtyard"
"Clever Storage: This tall larder is deceptively spacious with ample room for dry-food storage. No need for handles or recesses, simply push to release"
* BTW, I'd like say that my larder always looks like this but it was actually styled for the shoot :-(
"Old meets new: the original Victorian stair spindles provide a contrast with the modern kitchen beyond"
"Blending in: Appliances are neatly concealed behind pocket doors and, even when they are in use, Ciaran ensured that they blend with the overall scheme"
"Free flowing: the huge glazed doors open onto a little courtyard looking inside and out, while the stone boundary wall adds a unique dimension to the room"
Ciaran says "If you find it difficult to describe the look you're hoping to achieve, create a scrapbook of styles you like"
"Design Solution: Dean Cooper explains......"
I know the adage is to never work with children or animals but honestly Bones was so good in order to get this picture!
