Project inspiration: character

For one young family, renovating this space transformed it into an all-day hangout

At the centre of this new extension is a welcoming kitchen that showcases inviting shades and natural materials

A practical and timeless design can also be playful, colourful and full of surprises, as Jenna Botrie’s family home perfectly illustrates

Bright colours, an open layout and versatile lighting turned Sarah and John Yates’ unwelcoming subterranean kitchen into the heart of the home

Reworking the layout of this open-plan kitchen to have quiet areas for all the family was a huge success
