AN EDIT OF THE BEAUTIES ON TEAM LIVINGETC’S COOK SPACE SHOPPING LIST

The spotlight: kitchens

THE NEW SHAKER

If you love the Shaker look but struggle to make it fit into an otherwise contemporary scheme, Olive & Barr's all-new Skinny Shaker collection might just fit the bill. Sleeker than the classic style, with refined details like slimmer frames and concealed hinges - and with personalisation available for everything from colour to hardware to storage solutions - this versatile creation is innovative indeed. Handmade Skinny Shaker kitchens start from £10,000, Olive & Barr.

Finish line

This Gold Coast kitchen is proof that brushed brass remains a timeless choice for finishes. Designed by House of Pez and Beith Building & Developments, it features ABI Interiors pieces that lend the space an opulence likened to New York’s boutique hotels - but with a background of walnut timber and Calacatta Viola marble, it’s still earthy, grounded and very welcoming. Zalo kitchen sink in brushed brass, £599; for a similar tap, try the Elysian Commercial 3-way pullout filter tap in brushed brass, £449.99, ABI Interiors.

RAISE THE BAR

A custom bar area helps to set the tone and atmosphere when entertaining by allowing guests to congregate in one area and connect with each other. In this project designed by US design studio Alana Marie Interiors, the custom walnut bar also doubles as a privacy screen, helping to zone the space in a practical and elegant way. The slatted panels create beautiful storage nooks for glassware and bar accessories, demonstrating how form and function can be seamlessly integrated.
