Located in the beautiful Sussex countryside is the latest project by The Main Company. Part of a whole house renovation, this stunning 17th century detached home was completely transformed to create a large, open-plan living area for the whole family to enjoy.
The Main Company was commissioned to bring this vision to life, working closely with the homeowners, the brief was to create a welcoming space for the family to eat, socialise and relax that was in keeping with the era of the property.
To maximise the light and airy feel of the room, the traditional shaker-style cabinets have been painted in Basalt and Pale Grey – these contemporary colours add depth and contrast to the kitchen. This modern rustic feel is further enhanced by the exposed brickwork, reclaimed oak and metal accents used throughout.
Wood is key to this aesthetic design, used across the cabinetry, open shelving, around the extractor fan and to create an impactful feature wall – the use of this reclaimed, raw material adds warmth to the interior.
This characterful kitchen is also extremely practical – the large island includes ample storage for essentials and doubles as a breakfast bar with diner-style seating. An invaluable addition to any open-plan design, this versatile island provides a preparation area with an integrated glass hob and extractor housed in the ceiling.
To complete the look, high-quality appliances including a Lacanche oven, Quooker tap, Fisher & Paykel fridge-freezer and a luxurious wine fridge have been installed.
In addition to the kitchen, The Main Company supplied a reclaimed barn oak floor, this has been used throughout the ground floor to create a seamless flow that ties in to the country-rustic feel of the home. A boot room has also been installed, this helpful addition exudes instant wow-factor with its bespoke cladding and custom-made bench; perfect for muddy boots. The cladding creates an interesting feature and is perfectly complemented by exposed beams and traditional oak floor.
With the help of The Main Company, this characterful countryside family home now boasts a timeless bespoke kitchen that will be enjoyed by all for many years to come.
