Your kitchen, drawn to your own measurements

Every kitchen we build starts as a measured drawing. Below is a live example: deep cabinetry, Calacatta marble worktops, brushed gold handles and a 1520 × 620mm island, set inside a 2465 × 4380mm room with a 2445mm ceiling. Walk through it in 3D, then book a survey for your own space.

Measured drawing

Drawn from the survey sketch. All dimensions in millimetres, taken to the finished wall face — doors and windows stay exactly where they are.

ISLANDOVEN + MICROSINKHOB + HOODBIN / SPICE / DISHWASHER2465 overall4380 overall14101445

Layout logic

The work triangle runs tight: sink under the window, hob on the long run with the chimney hood above, and the tall oven and microwave housing in the return so nothing blocks the walkway. The island sits centrally, leaving roughly 900mm circulation to each run and a seating overhang.

Storage

Full-height drawers on the hob run, a 150mm pull-out spice tower beside it, a twin-bin pull-out under the sink and a fully integrated dishwasher. Wall cabinets are kept to two short runs so the room stays open.

Light

Two brass pendants over the island, recessed downlights on a separate circuit, and concealed LED under the wall cabinets to wash the stone.

  3. 03

    Shell

    Skim walls and ceiling, lay large-format porcelain flooring, fit new recessed ceiling lights on two circuits.

  4. 04

    Cabinetry

Notes

  1. 01All panel sizes are finished sizes in millimetres — length × width. Add 1mm per edge where edge-banding is applied.
  2. 02Verify every run on site before cutting: the north-east corner is chamfered 1090mm and walls are out of square.
  3. 03Carcasses 720 high on a 150 plinth, 30mm Calacatta top = 900 finished worktop height.
  4. 04Grain runs vertically on all finished end and back panels.
Example dimensions taken from a site survey. All sizes are confirmed on site before cabinetry is ordered or stone is templated.Start your kitchen
