Kitchen of the week: a modern cuisine inspired by Edwardian style - As part of a renovation and extension of a house full Georgian country, designers Artichoke designed a kitchen in the extension area who completed the architecture of the original house. "We decided that in fact a version of a working kitchen Edwardian would fit better in the space," says Andrew Petherick, lead designer on the project. Inspired by diverse heritage properties, such as Attingham Park in Shropshire and Fota House in Cork, Ireland, they were able to design a kitchen that is genuinely rooted in the historical details of the period.
family, including a passionate chef, functionality is the key. This is reflected in the details, most of which can be appreciated only from photographs. "I would say that 50% is the aesthetics and the other 50% is invisible - what it's like opening a door or cabinet and the sounds they make," Andrew says.

As part of an extension, there were limits to the ceiling of the kitchen and he had to be kept low. "We had to go above cabinets, said Andrew. "But we're not really like closets anyway -. They are often authoritarian and prevent you from doing fun things with walls that are more attractive"
As an avid cook, the customer has a good copper cookware collection, which is used on a regular basis. Hold the open shelves was part of the design, and ensures that they are easily accessible.

the space allowed a particularly large kitchen island that kept the Edwardian feel. "If you had ventured into the kitchen of a chef in an Edwardian house, you would have found a big, brutal island designed for heavy use and often up to six people working around him," says Andrew.
For inspiration, he picked up on the style of Edwin Lutyens, a British architect famous for eminent contemporary Edwardian merger with older styles. "The whole room to work the flavor of the kitchen of a Edwardian cook it, said he added.

Island solid oak is half covered with oak and half Italian black basalt, a volcanic rock. The work surface is around 3.5m in total and found a stone slab that was big incredibly difficult. Rather than placing two pieces of basalt, Andrew has decided to separate the materials. This also serves a practical purpose, that the oak did not fare well with water and basalt is a harder stone that can withstand wear and tear.

Details like this ressaisissent all historical influences and create a real sense of careful design and authenticity. "Lighting is channeled in these shelves, Andrew says. "There is an integrated lighting strip in stone and all electrics run through the limestone materials to create a glow without being seen.
