Cook's Room Northumberland
The Everyday Kitchen
Stone-painted doors and a dark granite over them: a worktop that shows nothing, in a room in use every day of the week.
Not every kitchen wants to be photographed. This one is cooked in twice a day, so the worktop is a dark granite that shows nothing, and the doors are a stone colour that takes a wipe and carries on.
The wall cabinets are glazed, but in a reeded glass rather than clear. They lift the run and give the eye somewhere to go without asking anybody to keep the shelves tidy.
Ovens and fridge are banked together on the wall opposite the sink. Two people can be in here at once -- which is what actually happens -- without working across each other.
