Overview

A dark timber and stone island kitchen in a warehouse-style space, with a downdraft hob, deep pan storage and a bar-seating end. Kitchen case study in Shoreditch (EC2A), photographed for David Delavega's book Kitchen, Living & Beyond.

Works were sequenced to keep the property secure and weathertight throughout, with a single site manager coordinating every trade from strip-out to final snagging.
