Shaker style kitchens

If a shaker kitchen is not the style for you, why not have a look at our modern kitchens or country kitchens.

The term "Shaker" comes from the Utopian society of Shakers, who were known for their simple but sturdy furniture. The name was first used in 1887 by Gustav Stickley, an American designer who wanted to create a new style of furniture free from ornamentation or excessive decoration.  

The simple design of shaker-style kitchens makes it a timeless classic. Shaker doors traditionally have a wide square frame with a flat recessed centre panel. 

Door fronts painted in white and grey are the most popular colours for shaker kitchens. The addition of a cup door pulls in either brass or black, finishing the kitchen with a cosy country vibe door and drawer pulls. 

Depending on if you are leaning toward a more traditional or modern shaker kitchen can come down to which kitchen appliances are chosen to complete the kitchen. A traditional kitchen is suited to gas hobs and free-standing fridge freezers, while an electric or induction hob and an integrated fridge will keep a more contemporary feel.
