The Power Of Design – English Home

When the Portlocks moved into their beautiful and historic home Lizzie, a chef working from home, knew the kitchen had to change.

Main feature already in place was the bottle green Aga which Lizzie says she had to learn to love after finding out the astronomic price of having it re-enamelled. So after WCM redesigned and refitted her kitchen with brand new units she had them painted in Ball Green and Green Smoke by Little Greene to tone in with the Aga.
