Great start to this year. I first painted this kitchen when it was newly fitted 14 years ago, I then gave it a maintenance coat 7 years later in the original colour. My client contacted me a few months ago to ask me to repaint it in a new colour they decided on Farrow&Ball ‘Inchyra Blue’. A lovely way to …

Quite a different style of kitchen to my usual jobs, a real transformation on this one. The colours are a match to ‘Purbeck Stone’ & ‘Railings’ from Farrow & Ball. New brass handles were also fitted.
