How to create a country kitchen

Mixing and matching woods, colours and finishes is the latest trend in kitchen design

Combining finishes allows you to get the best from classic country looks, such as natural wood or a painted finish.

Sticking to just one material can look bland, especially in a large kitchen/diner with plenty of cabinetry, so a mix of materials not only breaks up these long runs of units, it adds interest and depth.

This mixing and matching idea is becoming increasingly popular and has a relaxed quality that makes brand new cabinetry appear instantly at home.
