Meticulous organization led the design of Jemima and Dan Matheson’s kitchen, which they commissioned when converting a home from long-disused (and kitchen-less) stable blocks, bought in late 2018. ‘The promise of being able to plan the size, use, and position of every cupboard and drawer was a huge part of the property’s appeal,’ says Jemima. ‘We love to cook and entertain, but the experience is so much more enjoyable when everything is exactly where you need it.’
Realising bespoke was their best option for tailored storage, the couple turned to Jasper Middleton. ‘We could tell he would provide the quality we were after, but we also loved that Jasper shared our obsession with well-honed storage,’ says Jemima. Working together, they established the purpose of every unit – from base-lined drawers for precious items to vegetable drawers, knife blocks, wine storage and Aga tray racks.
