Another week, another beautiful English-style kitchen accept this time with a twist on the traditional. I love the architectural details of this period home and the kitchen by Blakes London sits perfectly within its historic shell while still having all the mod cons. Not sure what I like best… the amazing marble island, the beautifully detailed cupboards or that super sexy tap.












Kenly Lambie Shankman of San Francisco based design firm Studio Muir creates spaces I totally want to dive head first into. Working with a structure’s original details and adding some modern yet warm touches results in rooms that are unique, inviting and oh la la the attention to detail that adds an extra dose of yumminess.

Oh I do love an English kitchen. The wooden cabinets, in this case with a bold navy finish, the pantry cupboard, a big stove with a mantle. I love the amazing light flooding through the windows in this particular example and we don’t need to mention the floors. It’s not the first time I’ve had my head turned by Blakes London (you can see more posts here) and I’m sure it won’t be the last.















It has been an eternity since Jo featured some spaces by Boston-based interior designer Kelly McGuill. In all that time it seems her style has become more subdued with a bit more rustic and elegant elements. And I love every bit of these rooms. The neutral colour schemes are so soothing and I am absolutely in love with this first kitchen, which happens to be Kelly’s, and THAT GREY CARRARA MARBLE IS MY JAM!!!


















We’ve long been obsessed by Jason Maclean’s work (here) but I must say that I’m elevating my obsession to superfan status after seeing this minimalist kitchen in his West London renovation. Yes the rest of the house is starkly chic but this kitchen is a standout. Form follows function with a simplicity that is strikingly beautiful. By Studio Maclean.
