Copper's rich sheen revives vintage elegance for modern kitchens
Kickin' It in the Kitchen: Arabella Youens' Stylish Space
Jump on board and get a front-row seat to Arabella Youens' spectacular kitchen design, an exquisite fusion of classic elegance and contemporary cool. Helmed by creative director Helen Parker from deVOL, this kickass kitchen draws inspiration from both a Manhattan bistro and the grandeur of an 18th-century English townhouse, as revealed in Country Life.
First things first, the deVOL's 'Classic' furniture collection, twitched up in Printer's Black, sets the tone for this badass kitchen. But the real star of the show is the magnificent island that boasts a dual life as both a prep table and sit-up bar, merging function with style.
Wall-huggers, say hello to the Haberdasher's collection cabinetry! Mid-century design and a nod to Victorian shop fittings make this corner sizzle. Rise up and take advantage of your kitchen's lofty chest, with its floor-to-ceiling cupboards, quirky cubbyholes, and sliding glass drawers, all fashionably flaunting a modern-day spin on traditional design.
Here's where things get steamy: a sizzling aged copper worktop from the island slices through the décor brilliance. Gilded with a 1.5mm thick polish, this beauty puttin' in work matches up elegantly with the oversized extractor hood and aged-brass taps, exuding an effortless sense of luxury.
The drama doesn't stop there! Heirloom task lights with creamware shades cast a vintage glow, while an ornate La Cornue range cooker steals the show. Bold Arabescato marble worktops elsewhere provide gleaming contrast, adding sophistication that's simply off the chain.
Wanna have your cake and eat it too? No problem! Pull up a chair, and don't miss the café curtain at the window. Made from a semi-transparent fabric, you can count on this little charmer to dish out privacy without blocking the natural light flooding in through the sash windows.
