The Old School House | A Contemporary Family Kitchen in East London Humphrey Munson Classic style kitchen

Situated in a stunning converted school house in East London, we designed and handcrafted this lovely bespoke kitchen. The exposed original brickwork and stainless steel range cooker, splash back and extractor give this kitchen a really cool, contemporary, industrial feel which is softened by the kitchen design that incorporates hand-painted cabinetry and natural oak finishes.

With two young children, this busy household revolves around the large kitchen island which is the real hub of the home. With three deep drawers on each side, there is also a huge amount of storage underneath the island on the natural oak slats. The kitchen island worktop is natural oak and is sealed with a protective lacquer.

The homeowners chose the Nickleby design for its simple, clean lines and classic contemporary appeal. Simple artisan shelves were used in place of wall cupboards and the Siemens refrigerator and freezer were integrated with low-rise cupboards.

The handpainted kitchen cupboards are painted in Cornforth White by Farrow & Ball, while the large kitchen island and the artisan shelves are painted in Downpipe—also by Farrow & Ball. The handles are also painted, keeping the design as simple as possible.

The stunning worktop is white bianco anticato which ensures this classic contemporary family kitchen retains its clean and simple lines. The sink is by Villeroy & Boch and the tap is from Perrin & Rowe.

The flooring is Attica tumbled which was supplied by Humphrey Munson. It works perfectly with this Nickleby design and adds to the simple and timeless design of the space.
