This challenge was overcome by positioning the fridge further back inside an old doorway into the utility room, this doorway wasn\u2019t being used any more, and this gave the space needed to make this kitchen work with a nice flow.<\/p>\n<p>New cabinetry in the utility room built around the fridge completely hides the fact that it creeps into the room by a few inches.<\/p>\n<p>A bench seat built onto the back of the island, providing a row of seating on one side of the dining table, helped to gain some extra space by not having free standing chairs. It also created an opportunity for valuable extra storage space underneath the seating, with a hinged lid as an access point.<\/p>\n<p>An area for making tea and coffee is tucked away behind closed doors in a larder unit next to the fridge, keeping things tidy. A full sized interior door was also made in the same style as the kitchen for the under stairs cupboard, which has been turned into a pantry.<\/p>\n<p>Oak parquet flooring throughout the ground floor creates a warm and timeless feel, and subtle details like framework chamfers and antique brass finger pulls with matching hinges add character and depth.<\/p>\n<p>All of the small details on this sleek and modern version of a contemporary shaker kitchen are highlighted by the genourous amount of natural light that floods in from the Bi-fold doors. Making this a wonderful space to cook, entertain and relax in.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-separator fusion-full-width-sep\" style=\"align-self: center;margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;margin-top:15px;margin-bottom:35px;width:100%;\"><div class=\"fusion-separator-border sep-single sep-solid\" style=\"border-color:#e0dede;border-top-width:1px;\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-2\" style=\"font-family:&quot;Open Sans&quot;;font-weight:300;\"><p>Rao Furniture is run by furniture designer and cabinet maker Brandon Rao.
