About Us

Since working in the kitchen industry I have always had an ambition to go it alone and start up a service which is unique and customer based rather than sales driven. I have now realised this ambition and now offer people looking for a new kitchen an opportunity to employ a dedicated kitchen designer. Working for you means no hard sell, no reccuring phonecalls to secure despoits, no hours of repeating yourself to loads of different suppliers. I am a helping hand when you need it most. Please ...

Design Zones

With the changing world and the way we use our kitchens the old fashioned and outdated triangle design is becoming more and more redundant. In its place, welcome the zones! As multiple people use the kitchen, a more efficient and useful space is required. Splitting the tasks and grouping them in zones the useable space works so much better! Having a cooking area with a prep sink is a good start, and as people don't use the oven as much as the hob, try moving it away to increase storage space for pots and pans nearer to the hob. Having a prep sink also means that the main cleanup sink can be kept separate, with a dishwasher next to it creates the cleaning zone. There are also a couple of suppliers that sell dishwasher drawers. This can be handy as one half can be in use while you fill the other, creating a nice cycle. Another idea would be to have a separate under counter fridge away from both cooking and cleaning zones, maybe in an island, where snacks and drinks can be made without disturbing people cooking and cleaning!For the latest news and hints and tips with everything kitchen visit http://www.paulstafforddesign.co.uk

Eco Design

With people becoming more environmentally aware, suppliers and designers are looking at new ways of introducing eco-friendly materials, recyling facilities and energy efficient appliances within kitchens. With this in mind, here are a few ideas to reduce your kitchens carbon footprint:- 1 - Appliances, look for A rated or better appliances, these are more electrically and water efficient, they're more environmentally friendly and cut down on running costs too! 2 - Lighting, spotlights have been replaced by energy efficient flourecent lighting. However new LED lighting is now available, even more energy efficient and more flexible. You can get stick on LED lighting strips that can be cut to the lengths you required for an uninterupted lighting effect. 3 - Recycling, to help the environment try using recycling bins within your kitchens. Suppliers offer a selection of compartments solutions. 4 - Materials, look for manufacturers that use sustainable material sources like bamboo, cork and recycled stone and glass.For the latest news and hints and tips with everything kitchen visit http://www.paulstafforddesign.co.uk

New Era in Hob Design

I spend alot of time looking through new designs and to be honest everything looks the same and trying to find something different is always hard, but every once in a while a design stands out and makes me happy The new Fisher & Paykel Project Luna stovetop is a gas hob that makes cleaning a breeze. The 3 Gas burners retract back into it's base when not in use to create a flush surface which is easy to clean and looks amazing. It uses aero burners which means sparkless ignition and instant flames, which is ideal for precision cooking. A masterpiece... but you'll have to wait, it's launched in the US in 2010 and not here for a while! I say "Put me down for one!"
