At GEC Anderson®, we pride ourselves on turning our clients’ visions into reality, particularly when it comes to designing bespoke stainless steel kitchens. A perfect illustration of this is the transformation we achieved for a private client who dreamed of a Mediterranean-inspired galley kitchen. This blog post will explore the details of this project, showcasing the extensive possibilities that our made-to-measure stainless steel products offer for creating exceptional kitchen spaces.
The Mediterranean Kitchen Project
Initial Concept to Final Design
The journey began with an initial email from the client, which included a simple sketch and a rough plan. What started as a basic idea evolved into a stunning, fully realised kitchen design, blending functionality with aesthetic appeal. The client opted for olive-coloured wooden cabinets and terracotta flooring, which set a warm, inviting tone for the kitchen.
Bespoke Stainless Steel Features
To complement the Mediterranean theme, the client chose our brushed satin finish for the stainless steel worktops, which provided a sleek contrast to the rustic elements of the design. Our worktops were custom-made, featuring Edge 7 (30mm) with an integral upstand of 60mm (Edge 10). This not only enhanced the kitchen’s visual appeal but also offered practical benefits, such as ease of cleaning and maintenance.
The worktop included:
- Integral Sink and Hob Cutouts: These were precisely measured and cut to ensure that the sink and hob fitted seamlessly into the worktop, providing a streamlined look.
- Splashback Behind the Hob Area: This feature was crucial not only for its functionality—protecting the wall from splashes and heat—but also as a stylish element that completed the look of the cooking area.
- Formed Around Columns: The worktop and integral upstands were uniquely formed around the columns on each side of the hob, adding complexity and bespoke detailing to the design.
Material Quality
The entire project utilised EN 1.4301 grade brushed satin stainless steel, known for its durability, hygienic properties, and ease of maintenance. This material choice ensured that the kitchen would withstand the test of time and usage, maintaining its beauty and functionality for years to come.
