Our clients had a specific requirement for their East London home: they wanted a ‘soft break’ entrance to avoid direct access to the kitchen area upon entering, whilst still feeling welcoming. 

They also needed a versatile kitchen island that could double as their family dining table. To meet our clients’ needs we designed a bespoke oak divider, that not only looks beautiful but also offers hidden storage, perfect for keeping shoes neatly organised.

Incorporating an entryway like this is an excellent solution for smaller homes, as it creates a sense of spaciousness, with the added bonus of extra storage. We chose a timeless rich green marble for the kitchen island. This added depth and a touch of luxe to the existing minimalist kitchen, and elegantly contrasted with the oak panelling.
