Streamlined kitchens are big news in kitchen design at the moment. Influenced by minimalist European trends, the cutting edge style gives a refreshingly simple yet striking look.
Handless, sleek looking designs can instantly update the kitchen to give it a contemporary feel, or can be contrasted with a country style look.
And that’s what property guru Kirstie Allsop did when she chose the Urban Lineaire kitchen from Magnet for her Channel 4 show, Kirstie’s Homemade Home.
The inspiration for this kitchen came from Cath Kidston’s home as she also has a sleek, white kitchen and uses this as a blank canvas to put a stamp on the room through the rest of the decoration. Kirstie contrasted the modern kitchen with the pretty, rustic wooden worktops and floral designs.
But if you love the pure, contemporary look, then the Urban Lineaire looks great styled with the quartz stone sparkly blue worktop and the latest appliances. The kitchen is also availiable with curves for a softer feel.
