Studio Collection Focus: How to create luxury with less

Luxury kitchens are what we do best at Roundhouse. And that principle remains the same whether you choose a totally bespoke kitchen or a modular kitchen from our Studio collection. Because Studio offers the same high quality build, design flair and one-to-one service as our bespoke kitchens – but with a more cost-conscious price tag. The result: a handpicked edit of kitchen cabinets, materials and finishes to create your dream luxury kitchen for less. This is modern kitchen design at its very best: flexible, smart, cost-effective and spot on for every size of kitchen design. Don’t forget you can also mix Studio and Design in the same luxury kitchen design for extra flexibility and choice.

Elevate kitchen cabinet storage
Efficient kitchen cupboard storage is essential for every luxury kitchen. And our Studio collection perfectly balances smart storage goals and design flair to meet your every need.
“Our core Studio range offers lots of flexibility with the internal configuration of kitchen cabinets,” explains senior design consultant Paul Welburn. “We have developed the range with years of experience designing beautiful practical kitchens.”
In this striking Indigo Blue and Dark Bronze kitchen, storage was top of the wish list, particularly as the owners are serious about cooking. So our experts worked their design expertise to plan a range of sophisticated kitchen cabinet storage for every last item, leaving surfaces calm and clutter-free. Think full-height pantry, deep pan drawers, a wine fridge and yet more storage on the kitchen island. It is an exercise in simple luxury, with extra design details such as brass handles and walnut veneered interiors elevating the kitchen cabinets to the next level.

Explore Studio’s kitchen cupboard style
Luxury kitchens are timeless kitchens that effortlessly stand up to passing trends. For that reason our three Studio kitchen cabinet styles (Metro, Urbo and Classic) are the perfect design toolkit for today and years to come.
Studio Metro and Urbo are both modern, flat-fronted doors – the main difference is that Urbo is a handle-free kitchen cupboard if you fancy a slick, streamlined mood. Both doors work incredibly well used in the same plan too as shown in this open-plan luxury kitchen room.
“We also have our Classic Studio range,” adds Welburn. “This is a frame door with handles that can be colour matched to any shade.” Studio’s small yet perfectly formed collection of kitchen cupboards offers so much for less. It’s a simple and stress-free way to harness your own individual style, whether you prefer a classic Shaker style or a super-modern look. And you can mix and match kitchen cabinets for a versatile, bespoke design that’s tailored to you and your lifestyle.

Experiment with kitchen paint colour and finish
From earthy neutrals to statement darks and textured finishes, the Studio collection has something for every luxury kitchen.
“We’re always looking for new colours and materials to stay on trend and creep ahead of the curve,” explains Welburn. “We like to push boundaries with colour combos and the relationship between furniture doors, counters, ironmongery and appliance finishes.”
We also offer our colour-matching service for our Classic kitchen cupboards, so you can get the exact shade you adore. Then for Urbo and Metro, a range of special, textured finishes such as burnt walnut and concrete, add an undeniably luxe mood.
The secret to a luxury kitchen though is how to mix and match kitchen paint colour and materials to create a one-off bespoke look. Here, a dark green kitchen island makes a bold statement against the classic, off-white kitchen cabinet fronts around the space. Is it time to flex your design imagination? We think so.

Create a statement kitchen island
Kitchen islands are often top of the wish list for luxury kitchen design. And our Studio collection kitchens are no different. A popular idea is to choose a custom kitchen island or pantry from our bespoke Design range so you can experiment with different finishes and internal configurations.
“This is often an area where we might mix Design and Studio,” says Welburn. “The Otterburn kitchen (pictured) is a case in point. The client loved the brass island but wanted to keep overall costs down.”
The answer was to use Studio kitchen cabinets for the practical, work zones. Then add luxury bespoke detail with a showstopping kitchen island wrapped in antique brass metal.
“It’s an easy way to play with both ranges and get in on budget,” he adds. “Another opportunity for adding drama and excitement to the design is by adding a luxury countertop such as marble. It can still be a Studio kitchen but your choice of counter can really elevate the kitchen and add wow factor.”
