Althorp Road

Wandsworth, London

Althorp Road brings together the practicality of a professional kitchen with the warmth and character of traditional joinery.

Designed around the way the space is genuinely used, the kitchen takes its cues from an executive chef’s workspace: a freestanding range cooker, prominent extractor, generous dark worktops and extensive open storage keep everything accessible, functional and ready for everyday life.

Open shelving creates visual rhythm and keeps frequently used objects within easy reach. The darker work surfaces give the room weight and definition against the lighter cabinetry and exposed brick.

Althorp Road is a kitchen designed to be worked in, lived in and enjoyed.
