Apponyi Design

Words to live by in my kitchen! ❤️

London-bound for today for inspiration and sourcing for three exciting country house projects in the pipeline.

A couple of shots from several very different kitchens that we designed over the years. Kitchens are so personal, and above everything else, have to work for and bring joy to the people cooking there every day.
Which is your favourite?

Yesterday's 'After & Before' was such fun, I thought I would do another in the same vein.
This was a Tea & Toast Room and Storage/Dog Room created from an awful bathroom and wierd, useless ante-room and a beautiful China Room adapted from from the original cold store.
So lovely to look back at these and see what we created. I hope you like them.

Im starting to think about the kitchen on a beautiful new project we are working on and have been delving into past projects.
I thought I would start with some After & Before's of this mega renovation of a huge derelict commercial kitchen that we turned into the most beautiful, highly functioning, yet cosy and appropriate kitchen and adjoining potwash. It wasn't much of a looker when we started, but it's lovely to look back and be reminded of what we accomplished.

Took the family to and the famous Wasserspiele which I haven't been to see in years but went all the time as a child. Just so beautiful, and awe-inspiring. Mostly built in the 1600's, not only the incredible water-mechanics but also the design and detail are just incredible. Go if you ever have the chance.
