A classic shaker kitchen, in light grey, with clever storage solutions for clients in Longbridge.  Our clients contacted us with clear ideas about what they wanted to include within their kitchen; that had been recently extended to incorporate a dining area.

To the rear of the kitchen, built into an alcove, our design included a pantry with open shelving housed behind sliding doors. The pantry also included worktop space for their microwave and toaster.

A bank of units along one side of the kitchen discreetly accommodated the washing machine, tumble drier and a broom cupboard; oven housings; and a drinks cabinet with enclosed workspace. Whilst the bank of units along the other wall housed a tall fridge and freezer and storage cupboard.

A large island unit in dark grey, incorporated the induction hob, seating for two, pull out bins and plenty of additional storage space.

Karndean herringbone flooring completed the look.

A Personal Journey with Matthew James

At Matthew James Kitchens, we've been at the heart of homes for generations, watching kitchen trends evolve while staying true to timeless craftsmanship. As a family-run business deeply rooted in our community, we understand that your kitchen is more than just a room—it's the soul of your home.

Have a question?

As a family-run business that values transparency, we understand the importance of timing. Every kitchen is unique, just like the families we serve. Typically, from initial design to the final polished surface, a bespoke kitchen can take anywhere from 6 to 12 weeks. But rest assured, we'll work closely with you to ensure the process fits seamlessly into your life.

This is where our expertise truly shines. There's no one-size-fits-all answer, as each home and homeowner has different needs. We take pride in sitting down with you, perhaps over a cup of tea in our showroom, to understand how you live, cook, and entertain. Whether it's a classic work triangle or a more modern zoned approach, we'll craft a layout that's as functional as it is beautiful

This is a question we get asked all the time. In our experience, clever storage solutions are the unsung heroes of a well-designed kitchen. From pull-out pantries to bespoke corner units, we have a myriad of tricks up our sleeves to ensure every inch of your kitchen works hard. After all, a clutter-free kitchen is a joy to cook in, whether you're whipping up a quick weekday dinner or hosting a grand Sunday roast for the family.
