Luxury Shaker Kitchens in Sussex and Essex

At The Brighton Kitchen Company we love to design and build both luxury modern shaker-style kitchens and classic shaker kitchens for period homes. The distinctive square-framed design of the classic Shaker style kitchen has a beautiful, universal appeal, and sits elegantly in many different property styles.

The Shaker kitchen style originated in the late 1700s in New England in the USA. The name comes from the religious sect who believed in building furniture that was functional and necessary. From its humble beginnings, the Shaker kitchen has grown in popularity, and we believe our luxury Shaker kitchen solutions take this kitchen design to another level. It is a design that offers practicality, durability and timeless style. Shaker kitchens were always intended to last a lifetime and with The Brighton Kitchen Company they still do.

Handmade Shaker kitchens

Handcrafted in Sussex, all of our bespoke Shaker kitchens are made by our partnering local cabinet maker. Highly skilled, our local cabinet maker has been in the industry for years, and crafts truly beautiful kitchen furniture designed by us. Using traditional joinery techniques and precision technology, all of our handmade shaker kitchens are built to perfection. To us, attention to detail is everything.

The classically proportioned doors with an inset panel, so typical of the Shaker style, are set in sturdy frames and can be painted in any colour or left bare. Farrow and ball’s heritage colours are favourite finishes, with greys, blues and greens being ever-popular, but if you have your own special colour in mind, or have a particular design feature you would like, we can of course accommodate that for you. We relish a challenge and we’ll help you choose every last detail. Everything we design has you, your family and your home in mind.

  We contacted The Brighton Kitchen Company to help us with a large renovation project including a kitchen, utility room and bar area in a new extension at our home. We met Alex and immediately got on well and he listened and really took the time to understand what we were trying to achieve. He then put an amazing design together for our kitchen full of ideas which we hadn’t thought of that really made a difference. The quality of the finished kitchen is excellent and we are looking forward to entertaining our guests and using the new bar area. Thank you Alex and Mark the installer who worked very hard to ensure the kitchen was installed to the highest standard.

  After visiting lots of showrooms, we visited The Brighton Kitchen Company as we were impressed with the projects on their website. Alex stood out for us as very professional and knowledgeable and we were impressed with the level of detail which he went into for our kitchen design and he was very patient to ensure everything was right. Alex managed the installation and the kitchen was installed without any problems and we are so happy with the finished design. Thank you Alex.

  We decided to get our kitchen refit done by TBKC as their sister company TBBC upgraded our bathrooms so well. It was a major piece of work with wall removal, new electrics & plumbing etc. Alex did an amazing job of working with us to define exactly what we were looking for, and tailored the result to our needs, aspirations and budget. The fitters arranged by TBKC were highly skilled perfectionists with years of experience, and we felt we were in safe hands throughout the process. The result is simply stunning - better than we hoped it would be. We just cooked our first full meal in our "for life" kitchen, and couldn't be happier with it. Everything just flows and works in the room, which is fast becoming the heart of our home. I would gladly recommend TBKC to anyone looking for a well designed, well built, stylish kitchen upgrade.

  This is the place in Brighton and Hove to go to have your bespoke dream kitchen or bathroom designed. The BKC pride themselves on attention to detail when it comes to design, and will factor in the most minute and nuanced details, that you may otherwise overlook, to make the space practical and aesthetically pleasing. Ergonomics is also a key.
This was our second time using BKC, following the design and installation of two bathrooms a few years ago.
What we like about BKC is that their designs produce a wow factor, are trendy, yet timeless. The materials and products used are bespoke and of superior quality, while also nationally sourced. We had our kitchen designed by Alex, who listened to our every whim and at the same time suggested different ideas, which we may not have considered ourselves. Chris, the managing director, was super helpful with choosing the tiles -
we went for porcelain, mini metro dark green.
We are now looking forward to the kitchen being finally finished, just in time for Christmas. Pics to follow.

  Chris and Alex were exceptional. Knowledgeable, professional, friendly and good listeners. And they have a good set of subcontractors who were very extremely user-friendly. Our finished kitchen was exactly what we wanted, and the whole process was very smooth indeed. I would recommend The Brighton Kitchen Company highly.

  We found Alex to be very friendly and helpful and also extremely professional. He spent a lot of time designing our perfect kitchen / dining room and offered various options for us to consider with a lot of attention to detail. Alex allowed us time and space to carefully evaluate and make our decisions and did not put any pressure on us at all throughout this process. Would thoroughly recommend!

  Very pleased with our kitchen and the service overall. Alex was very accommodating when a few changes had to be made and indeed with a couple of after sales issues. Would definitely use again.

  Chris, Darren and TBKC team did a fabulous job with the design and fitting of our bespoke Shaker in-frame kitchen. It was not a straightforward job at all due to some architectural quirks of the house and some non-standard requests on my part. They were patient, communicative, helpful, and they had my back every step of the way. The kitchen was installed as part of a whole-house renovation where the TBKC team had to work under non-ideal circumstances (I chose the wrong building contractors, unfortunately) and they were extremely flexible during a busy time to deliver as promised. TBKC is composed of real artisans who take pride in their work so I'm not surprised that the final result is breathtaking, functional and the high quality I expected for the price point. I absolutely recommend this company and will be using them again for other cabinetry needs.
