"With nearly a century of experience in luxury kitchen design, the new 1929 collection carries our legacy of bespoke, quality craftsmanship into the modern day." - Matthew Marsden, Head Designer & Company Founder

Introduction
A bold new chapter in our design story, the 1929 range is born from modern Scandinavian influence. Designed for those who appreciate clean lines and understated elegance, this collection offers a refined, contemporary aesthetic with a luxurious edge.
Bringing together innovative materials and finishes sourced from leading suppliers around the world, the 1929 range is crafted using our signature handmade techniques. Subtle lighting and varied textures are used throughout to create depth, contrast and visual interest, all while preserving the sleek, minimalist look.
The collection is anchored by three carefully curated design families: Tide, Strata and Forge. Chosen for their distinctive character and exceptional quality, these elements can be used individually or combined to create a completely new concept in kitchen design.
Forge
Raw Beauty. Refined Drama. Explore our carefully curated collection of Italian-designed surfaces, redefined through the lens of modern luxury, the clean lines of contemporary minimalism and the understated elegance of Scandinavian design.
These surfaces capture the depth and character of natural stone with striking realism, creating a bold and architectural focal point in any space.
Paired with clever lighting, these finishes reveal subtle shifts in texture and tone, creating a living surface that responds to its environment.
Combine with rich timber elements for a warm, organic aesthetic that evokes nature at its most refined. Or, for a bolder statement, contrast with our Classic range to craft a commanding centrepiece.
Whether understated or dramatic, these surfaces radiate a quiet, confident luxury.
Strata
Design that breathes warmth. Crafted from real wood, this collection showcases the quiet elegance and rich character of natural veneers. Each piece is thoughtfully selected and responsibly sourced, bringing authenticity and depth to contemporary spaces.
Each surface in our Strata collection is treated with a specialised oil system designed to preserve the natural texture and appearance of the timber.
Unlike conventional finishes, our advanced formula bonds directly to the wood’s surface fibres.The result is a durable, breathable finish that feels as authentic as it looks.
Pair with the soft matte texture of our Tide cabinet doors or create a striking focal point like a standalone island with our Classic furniture range.
Tide
A finish that feels as good as it looks. A beautiful selection of matte finishes, offering rich, nuanced colour and an exceptionally smooth, tactile surface. Designed to meet the demands of modern living, combining refined aesthetics with everyday durability.
Designed to elevate both look and feel, each finish is enhanced with advanced lacquer technology that resists fingerprints, repels bacteria and ensures lasting durability.
These finishes lend themselves beautifully to a range of design expressions, from clean handleless cabinetry to the subtle accent of satin or brushed brass pulls.
Their versatility pairs effortlessly with our Culbeck Brook Classic glass doors with extra narrow styles and rails. Complete the look with deep-stained cabinetry and concealed lighting for a modern, luxurious aesthetic.
