A luxury kitchen is not just about utility, but encapsulating the essence of sophistication and indulgence alongside it. Luxury kitchens are characterised by a combination of exquisite design, high-quality materials and thoughtful functionality. These amazing spaces put the kitchen at centre stage in your dream home, creating a modern space that will stand the test of time. Read on for some of the key ways to create an indulgent and timeless luxury kitchen.
Cabinetry is the backbone of any kitchen design, a luxury kitchen is defined by its cabinets’ fine materials, details and impeccable finishes. These cabinets are more than storage solutions; they are works of art that set the tone of a luxury kitchen with refinement and functional elegance.
Use these ideas as inspiration when designing your luxury kitchen either using a kitchen designer or on your own:
All colours have space in a luxury kitchen. Don’t be afraid to mix cabinet colours, such as a different colour for upper cabinets or your kitchen island. These choices can be balanced or made to pop even further by using contrasting colours on the walls or splash backs.

Solid wood like a light oak immediately adds a gravitas and why not show off exceptional craftsmanship? Solid natural materials like dark wood or marble are timeless and elegant. We have plenty of sustainable options using recycled materials if going green needs to be blended with luxury.

It’s not only important to pay attention to detail, in a luxury kitchen, it’s imperative. These finishing touches on your cabinetry are the pièce de résistance in a beautifully planned space. Handles, clean lines or invisible handles will all change how your kitchen, literally, feels. The size, the shape – be sure to choose a style that oozes elegance whilst being ergonomically pleasing.
CIMAFollowing on from cabinetry, one of the next features to add impact and high-end energy to your kitchen is your new countertop. Whether you go for solid wood or choose a heavily veined marble top both will change the feel of the room. When choosing, think too about your sink – will it be in-built and a continuation of the countertop, or will you be choosing a statement sink that shines alone.
Step into the realm of luxury kitchens and you'll inevitably encounter a captivating centrepiece — the kitchen island. A kitchen island is more than a countertop; it's a canvas for culinary creation and a gathering place for cherished moments. Plus, it always looks incredible. Kitchen islands are meticulously crafted to exude grandeur while serving as functional workstations in any contemporary kitchen. They are an embodiment of luxury and offer up ample space for the whole family to sit on bar stools and enjoy midnight snacks or give a little company to the cook!
Open shelving is an interior design trend that exudes luxury. Whilst there is a need for closed storage, displaying meticulously curated dishware, glassware and prized collectibles can add a touch of personalised luxury. Weave it into your kitchen design and use it as an invitation to showcase your culinary passions while maintaining a seamless, clutter-free space.
Extending your luxury kitchen into your dining area, whether that is in an open-plan setting or a separate dining space is entirely up to you. However, consider the interior design of the space – luxury shouldn’t just stop at your kitchen door. Choose high-quality furniture, flooring and finishes when designing your dining area to ensure it complements the space perfectly.
