KITCHEN
This is no typical fitted kitchen, but “the imperfections give it a lovely quality that’s full of character”, says Anna. Basic carcasses from B&Q are fronted by antique floorboards from Ebay, while the hardwearing concrete floor is “ideal in a home with two boys as it only gets better with age”. The walls are painted in shade 9094 from Papers And Paints, while antique Portuguese tiles are used as splashbacks – try Bert & May for similar. The work surfaces are reclaimed school laboratory tabletops from Retrouvius, and the island is topped with old French scafolding boards. Antique French shutters, used as doors on the tall built-in storage, were sourced at Ardingly International Antiques & Collectors Fair.
