The Brief

A busy family needs a kitchen that can take the heat and still look serene. Our clients wanted a serious cooking space with plenty of storage, without making the room feel cluttered or heavy.

The Anchor

The kitchen is designed entirely around its true anchor: the iconic Aga. To give it the respect it deserves, we built a substantial bespoke canopy above it. It creates a strong architectural focal point, but by keeping the palette in soft greige and off-white, the overall feature feels calm and beautifully balanced.

Questions About This Kitchen

The iconic Aga deserves a dedicated focal point. We built a bespoke, oversized canopy to give it architectural respect while grounding the entire room. It transforms a functional appliance into a stunning design statement that feels like an original, permanent part of the home’s structure.

Definitely. In this layout, we added a generous central island and deep cabinetry around the cooking area. This gave the family all the storage they needed while keeping the rest of the room open and airy. View the full Prestbury Family Home project to discover its walk-in pantry.

Soft greige and off-white tones were chosen to create a beautiful sophisticated contrast to the iconic black Aga. This lighter palette keeps the large bespoke canopy feeling airy and elegant, ensuring the Aga stands out as a stunning focal point without making the room heavy or dark.
