If you're considering upgrading your kitchen, here's everything you need to know about Shaker kitchens, their benefits, and why a bespoke design is the perfect choice for homes across Somerset, Bath, Bristol, and the South West.
What Is a Shaker Kitchen?
The Shaker kitchen style dates back to the 18th century, originally crafted by the United Society of Believers in Christ’s Second Appearing (the Shakers). Their design philosophy revolved around simplicity, functionality, and quality—a tradition that continues to inspire kitchen designs today.
