HIGH-END KITCHEN DESIGN,
BUILD, AND INSTALLATION
With 12+ years in the high-end kitchen industry, Shane Nicholas Design provides direct access to British bespoke and Contemporary German kitchens, bypassing showroom overhead costs. Our expert knowledge and deep understanding of materials, finishes, and styles delivers timeless design with unparalleled quality.
Kitchen Design & Consultation Process
Every kitchen begins with a conversation. Some clients arrive with a clear idea of what they want, others with a feeling rather than a finished plan. A phone call and a visit to your home allow us to understand how you live, cook, and gather, and how the kitchen needs to sit within the wider house. We then develop the design through detailed 3D visuals, exploring layout, materials, and atmosphere. These visuals help bring clarity early on, allowing decisions to be made with confidence before anything is built. Check out one of our live project CGIs (pictured).
Bespoke Cabinetry
Bespoke cabinetry allows a kitchen to be shaped around the way it’s actually used. We design pantries, breakfast cupboards, integrated storage, and internal layouts so everything has a clear place. Details such as dovetail drawer boxes, internal fittings, and material finishes are chosen for how they perform day to day, as well as how they feel to use. The result is cabinetry that is practical, well made, and designed to last.
Contemporary Kitchens
Contemporary kitchens are defined by clarity of form and material. Handleless cabinetry, strong textures, and carefully planned layouts create spaces that feel confident and open. We work with materials such as metal, stone, timber, and finishes like oxidised brass, combining them in a way that feels balanced and intentional. Islands are designed as central elements within the space, supporting cooking, gathering, and movement through the room.
Traditional Kitchens
Traditional kitchens draw on familiar forms and detailing. We design shaker, neo-classical, and Victorian-inspired kitchens with in-frame cabinetry, cockbead detailing, and carefully chosen fixtures and skirtings. These kitchens are designed to sit naturally within period homes or more traditional settings, feeling comfortable, well proportioned, and appropriate to their surroundings.
Rempp Kitchens
We often specify Rempp Kitchens for their build quality, precision, and consistency. For many clients, these German-made kitchens offer an ideal balance of design flexibility, durability, and finish. Alongside Rempp, we work closely with other furniture makers, allowing us to choose the right partner for each project. This ensures each kitchen suits the client, the space, and the way it will be used.

Lighting
Contemporary lighting in an open plan living or home setting offers the opportunity to integrate something truly beautiful and decorative into the final design. Consider natural light, its influence on your space, ceiling heights, and the shifting play of light throughout the day. Thoughtfully zone your custom open plan living or home with strategic lighting to enhance both functionality and aesthetics.
