The Steading Kitchen sits at the heart of a light-filled rural conversion originally designed by Crichton Wood Architects in the late 1990s.

 Two decades later, it was ready for renewal — not a reinvention, but a sensitive update that respected the architecture’s flow and its relationship to the surrounding trees and courtyard.

 Working with furniture designer Johnny Pang, we reimagined the kitchen as a calm, matte, and modern centrepiece — a place for gathering, conversation, and creativity.
