This kitchen is a gorgeous blend of soft blues and marble, with matt brass accents. A lighter shade of blue was favoured for the cabinets over the more popular navy styles, and the effect is a friendly, relaxed yet elegant look.

A marble splash back behind the hob complements the marble-topped kitchen island, while the industrial-inspired brass kitchen taps add to an overall cool, on-trend look. The kitchen island pendants are kept simple, sculptural and white.

This kitchen cabinetry, painted in Farrow & Ball’s Down Pipe and gleaming with marble and mirror, is the key piece to this kitchen. The oversized skylight over the island lets in maximum light.

Textures are key in this kitchen design, with the island topped with slabs of salvaged iroko wood, which were science-lab worktops in a previous life. There’s even a bit of smutty graffiti scratched into one edge. The smokey blue paint shade on the cabinetry works with the marble worktops and brass splashback, but to balance the look a row of lacy glass pendants from Retrouvius was added, preventing it from looking too masculine.

The kitchen worktop is white marble, with cabinets in a vibrant blue and shelves made from wooden planks with rough-textured bark edges.

Cabinets painted a bold, matt Yves Klein-style blue bring an otherwise pared-back kitchen to life. The bespoke, industrial wall shelving set against a clean backdrop of Carrara marble and white tiles lends a lightness to the space.

The blue in this kitchen feels subtle and neutral. Floating shelves located above the worktop help accentuate the height of the new extension.

Here, wood worktops, painted brickwork and an industrial style tap and pendants offer a rustic contrast to this dark blue shade. The standout island worktop was crafted from reclaimed parquet flooring, while two structural beams became the perfect spots from which to hang lighting and a display shelf.

A special shade of powdery Slate Blue from Paint & Paper Library was chosen because it adds a softness that black or grey units couldn’t achieve. Livingetc also loves the modern design details – from the beaten silver cabinet handles to the mirror-back glazed units. Tom Dixon lights over the island are a stylish alternative to a cooker hood. A zinc breakfast bar was created as somewhere to eat and as a way to extend the scale of the unit to fit the size of the room.

Teal is an unusual choice for a kitchen but it works well here as the white walls keep it from being overbearing.
