When our client first contacted Tefore, they were looking to modernise their kitchen and make better use of space, especially at the entrance, where poor layout had long been a frustration. Their goal? A beautiful, practical kitchen that felt open, welcoming, and stylish—without compromising on quality.

From Frustration to Functionality

At their initial design consultation, our designer Paul listened carefully to their concerns and came up with a smart solution to make the most of their kitchen layout. Together, we explored different options, revising the design until our client felt completely happy. That’s what we’re all about at Tefore—working with you, not just for you.

Elegant Finishes and Efficient Appliances

To bring their vision to life, our client selected a Hemsley door in Matt Sage Green—a popular style with a beautiful beading groove that offers the timeless look of an in-frame kitchen, without the high-maintenance drawbacks. The matching Sage Green carcasses added a seamless, luxury feel throughout the space, avoiding the mismatched look often found with standard off-the-shelf units.

Topping the cabinetry, they chose Spectra worktops in Snow Spark, a stunning laminate surface that reflects natural light and helps brighten the entire room.

Finishing Touches That Make a Difference

To complete the project, our clients chose Karndean flooring, which perfectly complements the rest of the space with its durability, warmth, and stylish finish.

Customer Review 
“Thank you very much for all your help in designing this project. We are both delighted with our new kitchen. Your team worked very hard—especially Chris and Adrian, who were so friendly. Nothing was too much trouble for them, and a special thank you to Shannon for all her help.”

We’re thrilled that our clients love their new kitchen—and proud to have helped transform the space into something they can enjoy every day.

A returning client’s vision brought to life with handcrafted details, premium finishes, and a touch of pink perfection.

At Tefore, every kitchen we design, supply, and install is special—but this one holds a little extra meaning. Not only is it a stunning celebration of bespoke design, it was also created for a returning customer whose bedroom we transformed just a year earlier. Delighted with the quality, service, and attention to detail we provided, they came back to us when it was time to renovate their kitchen—and we’re so glad they did.

Welcome to the pink kitchen of dreams.

A Truly Unique Painted Kitchen

This bespoke solid wood kitchen has been custom painted in the exquisite shade Rose—a soft, romantic pink that creates a warm and inviting space. Every unit has been made to measure, ensuring a flawless fit that enhances the layout and maximises storage. The beauty of painted kitchens is that they offer endless possibilities. You’re not limited to standard shades—any colour your heart desires can be brought to life, making your kitchen truly one of a kind.

Sparkling Quartz Worktops

To complement the bespoke cabinetry, we paired the design with white mirror chip quartz worktops. These stunning surfaces include reflective elements that catch the light throughout the day, making the whole kitchen feel bright and full of life. It’s a subtle sparkle that elevates the elegance of the space without overpowering the colour palette.

Appliances were chosen for both style and performance. The customer opted for:

• Samsung hob and oven
• Bosch dishwasher and fridge
• Abode ceramic sink
• Franke Vital filter tap

Together, these choices blend seamlessly into the design while delivering the modern functionality every kitchen needs.

We were delighted to welcome back one of our returning customers for a very special project in their beautiful new home. After designing a kitchen for their previous property, it was a no-brainer for them to return to Tefore to help transform their next space—this time with a bespoke fitted kitchen, custom library, and made-to-measure bootroom.

We’ll let the customer share their experience at the end of this post, but first, here’s a look at the spaces we helped bring to life.

A Bespoke Kitchen Designed for Modern Living

When it comes to fitted kitchens, this one is a true showstopper. Our customer chose our ever-popular Richmond door, finished in the on-trend shade of Matt Sage Green with Lancaster Oak surrounds—a combination that offers a timeless look with a modern twist.

The heart of the space is a huge central island, topped with a stunning solid wood worktop, perfect for prepping, entertaining, or simply enjoying a coffee. The kitchen is fully equipped with premium Samsung appliances and a Franke sink and tap, blending functionality with style.

A Library That Feels Like Fine Furniture

Next, we created a bespoke library in our Pembridge door style, finished in Indigo with Sonoma Oak carcasses and surrounds. This rich colour combination creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for relaxing with a good book.

Because the unit was custom-built, we made the most of every inch of space, incorporating smart storage while keeping the look clean and elegant. Our brief was to design something that felt like a standalone piece of handcrafted carpentry—and that’s exactly what we achieved.

The result is a functional yet sophisticated feature that our client uses daily, and they’re absolutely thrilled with how it turned out.

The Practical Luxury of a Bootroom

Bootrooms are becoming increasingly popular as multi-use spaces—and for good reason. In this home, we designed a bespoke bootroom that offers everything from coat and shoe storage to space for laundry and utility essentials.

To complement the kitchen, our client again opted for the Richmond door, this time in Matt Stone Grey. The look was finished off with the same laminated worktops used in the kitchen, creating a sense of continuity throughout the home.

A well-designed bootroom brings order to everyday chaos. It’s a practical yet stylish solution for busy households—and proof that every area of the home can benefit from clever, considered design.

What Our Customer Had to Say

“I wanted to send a reply to say how delighted we are with the new Kitchen, Utility Room and Library. As a repeat customer we have once again thoroughly enjoyed the design process and working with you to get the result we wanted. Your team have again been brilliant throughout the build. Chris and Ade are a credit to themselves and Tefore.

I do not hesitate to recommend you and the Tefore team to anyone I speak to regarding the recent work.

Once again Paul, you and the team have delivered a fantastic end product that has really made the house feel like our home.”
