Queens Park

Queens Park is a masterclass in in-frame Shaker design. The cabinetry is painted in a bespoke green - calming and completely at home in a London townhouse. It feels timeless rather than trendy. Paired with polished brass hardware and a Perrin & Rowe tap, the whole scheme has a certain sense of authority without feeling formal.

The island does more than look good. With V-groove end panels adding texture and depth, it houses a generous prep area, bar seating, and elegant brass fittings. It's a place to cook, perch, chat, do homework or spread out the Sunday newspaper.

There's a dedicated bar area complete with integrated wine cooler, and at the other end is custom open shelving by the doorway that softens the transition into the rest of the house. Perhaps the cleverest move is the built-in window seating. Designed as an extension of the kitchen cabinetry itself, it provides generous hidden storage while creating a relaxed nook overlooking the garden.

This townhouse extension is flooded with natural light from skylights above and full-width doors to the garden beyond. The kitchen flows effortlessly into dining and living areas, creating a space that feels open and airy - and extremely liveable.
