A New Lease of Life

When Darragh and Sheena renovated their Limerick home they knew that Direct Wholesale Kitchens would offer the perfect fit for their new kitchen design.

A New Lease of Life

Darragh and Sheena’s kitchen is part of a large open-plan space that includes a living area, which is separated by a double-sided chimney breast and stove. As the couple explain, ‘We decided to remove all of the internal walls in this area of the house to create one large, sociable space, which afforded a generous amount of room to ensure we got all we wanted from our new kitchen design.’ The couple approached Direct Wholesale Kitchens

with their desired layout and design. ‘We had done a lot of research and knew exactly what we wanted when it came to the kitchen layout and colour. We had seen a number of designs by Direct Wholesale Kitchens and were impressed with what we saw and decided to get in touch and make an appointment to visit their showroom.

 'We engaged with kitchen designer Michael Doyle at the very start of our build, which was unfortunately around the same time as covid hit. However, Michael and the team where really understanding throughout and never put us under any pressure as we worked around lockdowns to get all of the building work completed and the kitchen installed,' adds Sheena.
