Many shades of grey
Grey has always been a popular colour for kitchens. It's versatile, timeless and wonderfully chic. As the story goes, there are many shades of grey and you can create a different look and style depending on the grey tone you choose. For a light and spacious feel, why not choose a sleek gloss like Stevia light grey gloss slab, or a mid grey shaker style with Alpinia grey painted wood effect shaker. Or go dark and broody with our Garcinia anthracite gloss with integrated handles - giving the option of an ultra-modern style or a dramatic feel.
A seamless finish
This compact galley kitchen may be small, but it certainly packs a punch. Featuring our Verbena fitted kitchen in charcoal grey, which contrasts beautifully against our Orin light oak worktop. The dark grey feature wall and matching door helps to create the illusion of space, resulting in a modern and seamless finish. This kitchen blends style with function for a charming and cohesive cooking space.
Balance dark grey with light shades
This large grey kitchen is the perfect social space for the whole family to come together at the end of a busy day. With matching worktops, accessories, and appliances – our Verbena charcoal grey open plan kitchen and diner has a warm and inviting atmosphere. Light wooden wine racks, matching flooring and a beige feature wall help to create a harmonious balance between light and dark.
Set the mood with kitchen lighting
Designed for social butterflies, this Stevia gloss anthracite fitted kitchen is the ideal place to socialise with friends, cook together and make lasting memories. The various lighting options allow you to set the mood based on the activity. This dramatic dark grey kitchen is the heart of the home.

Cool and trendy
Always a chic and timeless colour, grey walls are a great way to give your kitchen a sophisticated make-over. A light grey silk emulsion like Dulux Chic Shadow gives the feeling of a cool and modern space, or if you are wanting to be a little more dramatic with a warm, darker shade try Laura Ashley Charcoal Matt emusion to bring warmth into your kitchen.
