Transforming a Kensington Terraced Home with Bespoke Joinery

In collaboration with Zulufish, we fully transformed a four-storey Kensington home into a glamorous urban retreat, combining striking materials and layered textures. The result is a collection of thoughtfully crafted rooms, each showcasing bespoke joinery that brings both elegance and practicality to the forefront.

Contemporary TV Unit

In the formal sitting room, the TV unit features a polished plaster backdrop with open shelving sections, crafted in metal effect Cleaf and complemented by an Oyster Caesarstone worktop. Below, the low-level joinery showcases the same metal effect finish with acoustic fabric on the doors for sound-optimised storage.

A Kitchen that Anchors the Home

The kitchen is clad in a striking, metallic grey veneer. The cabinetry combines wide reeded and flush doors, creating a dynamic, textured effect that adds depth to the space. A sleek porcelain worktop, mitred to perfection with a shark nose overhang on the island, serves as a focal point, bringing a refined edge to the room. Smoked bronze handles and a mix of Miele and Gaggenau appliances complete this modern kitchen, blending into the home’s overall aesthetic.

Additional storage lines the wall in the form of wide slatted panelling, which extends the kitchen’s visual appeal into the adjacent living space. Cleverly concealed push-to-open pantry and storage cupboards maintain the clean lines of the design while adding functionality.

A Statement Media Wall

In the main living area, a media wall in a mix of bronze, black, and green patinated liquid metal effect panels showcases the true artistry of joinery. The use of dark bronze framing adds depth, while the open-backed design exposes polished plaster walls behind, offering a sense of layered dimension and elevating the visual impact of the living area.

A Stylish Boot Room

In the boot room, durable cabinetry is paired with a Caesarstone worktop, creating a practical yet attractive workspace. A bench seat with open hanging, complemented by antique brass hooks, adds warmth and character to the otherwise utilitarian area.

A Subtle Yet Striking Wine Room

For wine enthusiasts, the wine room in this home is a hidden gem. Three wine coolers are seamlessly integrated with flush, metallic grey veneer fronts, offering a push-to-open design that maintains the room’s sleek, uninterrupted lines.

6. Bespoke Touches in the Study

The study provides the perfect retreat within the home. The study features linen effect cabinets that offer a mix of open and closed storage, providing both display and functionality in a cohesive design.

Bedroom and Ensuite Bliss

Upstairs, the bedrooms are crafted with bespoke wardrobes that blend into the design. In the master suite, a walk-in wardrobe combines glass shelving and a mixture of closed and open storage, creating abundant layers of texture.

A vanity in the ensuite features integrated sinks and a polished Caesarstone surface, embodying zen and relaxation.

Charming Storage for the Little One

This child’s bedroom is thoughtfully designed with linen-effect flush door wardrobes. Integrated grilles ensure ventilation, while an open bookshelf adds a playful touch, displaying treasured books and toys.

Hallway Elegance

On the second floor hallway, a series of flush door wardrobes showcase a metal effect finish, adding a touch of understated luxury. A mix of hanging and shelving options inside ensures versatile storage, while bronze handles tie the whole space together.

A Music Lover’s Haven

The snug is a welcoming retreat, enriched with personal touches and thoughtful design. The bespoke media wall combines metal-effect cabinetry with sleek Caesarstone worktops, housing the client’s vinyl collection and music books. Behind, linen wallpaper panels add texture and warmth, elevating the room’s cosy ambiance. The space is further brought to life with a striking wall of artwork showcasing the client’s 12 favourite album covers.
