Bright & Timeless Kitchen Refresh in Northampton
Location: Northampton, Northamptonshire
Project: Kitchen refresh with replacement doors and new laminate worktops
Customer: Mr & Mrs Clarke
Overview
Mr & Mrs Clarke’s Northampton kitchen was functional but dated, with pale pine cabinetry that no longer matched the look they wanted. They were keen for a brighter, more timeless style without the disruption of a full full refit. By upgrading just the doors and worktops, The project delivered a before-and-after refresh that feels fresh, contemporary, and welcoming.
What Changed
- Cabinet Doors: Installed Newport doors in Ivory Matt. Their timeless panelled style in a soft, warm shade brightened the space while keeping it homely.
- Worktops: Fitted Beech Crenata laminate worktops, chosen for their natural wood-inspired finish that adds depth and warmth while staying affordable and functional.
- Finishing Touches: Updated handles and trims tied the design together for a complete, polished look.
