Where to begin when choosing a new kitchen?

Designing your own bespoke kitchen can seem equally as daunting as it is exciting.

12th Feb 2021

Designing your own bespoke kitchen can seem equally as daunting as it is exciting. It doesn’t matter if you’re the meticulous planner with 55 inspirational Pinterest folders, or the person with no plans or preconceptions – decisions are always difficult.

You’ve probably got a million and one questions already racing through your head: where do you even begin when choosing a new kitchen? What about styles? Finishes? Worktops? Colours? Handles? Appliances? Lighting? Bespoke features? The list really does go on!

Where can Cymru Kitchens help?
At Cymru Kitchens we are here to help you answer those questions. You will never be ‘left in the dark’ in our process. We will break down your aesthetic desires and translate them into practical, yet beautiful, solutions.

We have fitted many bespoke, custom made kitchens in our time, so whilst this task may seem too overwhelming to you; for us it’s just another day in the office. All of the materials, fixtures and fittings that go in to building the perfect kitchen can sometimes seem like a foreign language. Therefore, think of the Cymru Kitchens team as your translator. Nobody enjoys nodding along to a salesman’s pitch without having a clue what they’re nattering on about. Our goal is to never make you feel like you have to.

We fully understand the pros and cons of different styles, materials, finishes, lighting, colours etc. Most importantly however, we can explain these differences to you clearly. Shopping online or going into a store to select a pre-designed kitchen will only offer you a limited amount of information. Working with Cymru Kitchens ensures to fill in those knowledge gaps and tell you clearly why one option trumps another. Our team never expects any prior knowledge of kitchens or bespoke fittings from our clients, and we will aim to guide you through the decision-making process feeling fully informed of your options.

Don’t for a second think that this practical outlook prevents our fitters from getting creative! On the contrary, all Cymru Kitchens are hand-made in our workshop in Newport, South Wales. Meaning there are truly no limitations in achieving your dream kitchen. In our paint shop we hand spray and paint all of your furniture; ensuring that you’ll never experience peeling doors or surfaces ever again. 

But most of all… enjoy the process!
So, whether you’re a single bachelor/bachelorette or a large family, the kitchen is one of the most commonly used rooms in the household. Any form of bespoke fitting therefore needs to be thoroughly future-proofed and timeless. 

Yes, bespoke kitchens may initially be on the pricier side. However, this one-off investment ensures that you end up with the perfect kitchen, the first time round. No need to spend more money on any changes or updates further down the line, and most importantly… no regrets!
