Shaker Kitchens

Luxury Shaker Kitchens in Sussex

At The Brighton Kitchen Company we have worked with clients across Sussex designing shaker kitchens for their homes which are truly built to last a lifetime. The distinctive square-framed design of the classic Shaker style kitchen has a beautiful, universal appeal, and sits elegantly in many different property styles.

Shaker kitchens trace their origins to the Shaker movement of the 18th century, a religious group known for their values of simplicity, functionality, and craftsmanship. The Shakers believed in creating high-quality, practical furniture and cabinetry, free of unnecessary ornamentation. Their designs were characterized by clean lines, balanced proportions, and enduring durability, which remain hallmarks of Shaker kitchens today. Originally crafted from natural woods, these kitchens reflect the Shakers’ philosophy of harmony and integrity. Over time, Shaker-style kitchens have evolved, incorporating modern materials and finishes while maintaining their timeless appeal, making them a cornerstone of both traditional and contemporary kitchen design.

Our shaker kitchens are made by our esteemed joinery partner, Stoneham Plc based near Bromley in Kent who were established in 1864 and have been crafting exquisite shaker kitchens for 160 years. This partnership ensures our clients the pinnacle of quality when choosing a shaker kitchen.

Handmade Shaker kitchens

Handmade Shaker Kitchens

At The Brighton Kitchen Company, our handmade Shaker kitchens are crafted with care and precision in collaboration with Stoneham PLC, a British cabinet maker with over 150 years of heritage. Combining traditional joinery techniques with modern precision, Stoneham ensures that each kitchen is not only beautifully made but also built to stand the test of time.

The Shaker style’s classic design, featuring proportioned doors with inset panels set in sturdy frames, remains central to these kitchens. These can be painted in a wide range of finishes, including the timeless heritage colours by Farrow & Ball, with soft greys, calming blues and bold greens being particularly popular. If a bespoke colour or specific design feature is required, Stoneham’s expertise allows for complete customisation to suit your preferences.

Every detail of these kitchens is thoughtfully considered, from the choice of materials to the finishes, ensuring a design that complements both traditional and contemporary homes. With Stoneham’s long-standing reputation for quality craftsmanship, a Shaker kitchen from The Brighton Kitchen Company reflects enduring elegance, practicality, and exceptional attention to detail.
