At Tefore, we take pride in creating truly bespoke spaces that reflect how our clients live, cook, and gather. This recent custom kitchen in Alcester is a perfect example of how thoughtful design, premium materials, and skilled installation can transform a home. Designed, supplied, and installed by our in-house team, this kitchen combines timeless style with everyday practicality all tailored specifically to our client’s needs.
A Bespoke Shaker Kitchen in Duck Egg Blue & Pebble
For this project, our clients chose the Richmond door from our Signature range a beautifully crafted shaker-style design known for its classic proportions yet that narrow frame shaker gives it that modern edge. Finished in a soft combination of Duck Egg Blue and Pebble, the cabinetry brings warmth and subtle contrast to the space while maintaining a calm, elegant palette that suits both traditional and modern homes in Alcester.
The colour pairing was carefully considered during the design phase. Duck Egg Blue creates a gentle focal point on key cabinetry, while Pebble keeps the surrounding units light and neutral. Together, they achieve that sought-after balance between character and longevity essential in any custom kitchen design.

Natural Finish with Duropal Rustic Wood Worktops
To complement the painted cabinetry, the kitchen features Rustic Wood Ponderosa Pine worktops from Duropal. These surfaces add depth, texture, and a natural feel that enhances the handcrafted look of the Richmond door. Wood-effect laminate worktops are also an excellent choice for busy households, offering durability and easy maintenance without compromising on appearance.
The warm tones of the Ponderosa Pine finish contrast beautifully with the cooler cabinet colours, grounding the design and creating a welcoming atmosphere perfect for a family kitchen in Alcester where daily life revolves around cooking, dining, and socialising.
Spectra Italian Marble Splashback: Elegant & Practical

Behind the hob and preparation areas, we installed a Spectra Italian Marble splashback. This surface introduces a refined marble aesthetic while remaining practical and easy to clean ideal for modern kitchen use. The subtle veining echoes the natural character of the worktops while elevating the overall design.
Combining marble-inspired surfaces with painted shaker cabinetry is a popular choice in many of our Alcester kitchen projects, as it blends classic and contemporary elements seamlessly.
Before: Opening Up the Space with Bespoke Design
One of the biggest transformations in this custom kitchen Alcester project was the improved layout. The original kitchen felt enclosed and under-utilised, with limited worktop space and poor flow between cooking and social areas.
Through our bespoke design process, we re-planned the entire layout to maximise both functionality and openness. By repositioning cabinetry and creating more continuous work surfaces, we established clearer zones for preparation, cooking, and gathering. The result is a kitchen that feels significantly more spacious and connected to the rest of the home.
Our clients now have a layout that supports modern living whether preparing meals, entertaining friends, or spending time with family. This is the advantage of a truly custom kitchen: every element is designed around how the space is used, rather than forcing homeowners to adapt to standard units.
Designed, Supplied & Installed by Our Own Team
Unlike many kitchen companies, we manage every stage of the project in-house. From the initial consultation and CAD design through to supply and installation, our experienced team ensures continuity, precision, and quality control throughout.
Our own professional kitchen installers carried out the full installation in Alcester. Their craftsmanship ensures that cabinetry alignment, worktop fitting, and finishing details meet our exact standards. This attention to detail is what allows a bespoke kitchen to look and perform exactly as intended.
Having dedicated installers also gives our clients peace of mind – knowing the same company that designed the kitchen is responsible for bringing it to life.
