This project began with a lovely couple renovating their beautiful farmhouse for life with their three young children. They envisioned a kitchen that could keep up with their busy family life while embracing a modern, industrial aesthetic.
Our new 1929 Range was the perfect fit. With its Scandinavian-inspired simplicity and crisp, clean lines, it offered the modern aesthetic our clients were looking for while providing the durability and functionality needed for everyday family life.
To achieve the industrial farmhouse look, we combined two contrasting materials from our 1929 collection. The first material was from the Forge design family, capturing the rugged character of natural stone with striking realism. The second, Strata, is crafted from real wood veneers, offering a quiet elegance and rich, natural warmth. To finish the space, Holly, incorporated a unique glass backsplash from Rough Old Glass.
Storage was a priority. With young children in the home, thoughtful planning ensured practicality and safety. Generous cabinetry runs throughout, with additional storage placed higher up, including top boxes above the extractor, perfect for keeping delicate or less-used items safely out of reach.
The clients wanted a place that didn’t feel cold for the family to gather without losing the modern aesthetic. Holly achieved this by introducing a warm wood feature to the island, creating a comfortable place to sit. With waterfall edges, the island maintained the clean, contemporary lines central to the brief and true to the 1929 Range.
“After five years of renovating our home, the kitchen was the final piece that would make our dream home complete. Choosing where to get our kitchen from was not a decision we took lightly, but from the moment we stepped into the Matthew Marsden showroom, we knew we’d made the right choice. From the very first design meeting to the final installation, the whole experience was exceptional. The team took the time to truly understand how we wanted the space to look—incorporating an industrial farmhouse feel with a sleek, modern, yet timeless style. The 1929 range was perfect for this: the stone-like texture of the cabinets adds a contemporary edge, while the timber finish brings warmth and character. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are outstanding — every finish feels premium, and the layout works perfectly for our family. It’s completely transformed the heart of our home, and we genuinely enjoy spending time here every day. The space is not only beautiful but also highly functional, and we’ve had countless compliments from friends and family. We would recommend Matthew Marsden’s Kitchens without hesitation.”
