Full kitchen refurbishment in Barcelona

“A kitchen with an island sounded simple until we looked at the access and the existing services. We wanted to check circulation, seating and services before fixing the island size. Our property in Barcelona made tall ceilings part of the design rather than a delivery-day problem. Those constraints were dealt with in the drawings, so fitting day was calm and well organised. The storage is easy to reach and there are no filler spaces that serve no purpose.”

“We contacted the studio about a compact kitchen. The brief was quite specific: gain worktop space and place food, pans and appliances where they are reached. The survey in Barcelona also picked up tall ceilings, which had not been obvious in the photographs. They asked sensible questions, showed us where the first idea would have caused problems and set out the revised layout clearly. They did not promise that the first sketch was perfect. The second version was much better because it reflected how we actually use the room.”

“We began with photographs and a rough sketch for a kitchen renovation. The aim was to reuse what was sensible and replace worn fronts, runners and the worktop. Because the room is in Barcelona, we asked specifically about narrow lifts and stair turns; it was covered in the proposed sequence. Their reply was practical, not sales-heavy, and the quotation matched the version we had discussed. We kept one of their simpler recommendations. It saved money and, six months on, still feels like the right choice.”
