GILBERT SCOTT RESIDENCE

BESPOKE CRAFTSMANSHIP AND UNPARALLELED QUALITY

This stunning, bespoke kitchen was designed with the aim of combining both luxury and comfort. The client loved the warm tones and artful veining marbled throughout the stone Royal Peacock countertops, making it the perfect space to host friends for a lively dinner party or create lasting memories over a family dinner. The entire design was anchored by Farrow & Ball's 'Jitney' finish on the exterior cabinetry and taken to another level of luxury with American black walnut accents throughout.

KITCHEN DESIGN & ISLAND FEATURES

This bespoke kitchen design centers a gorgeous kitchen island and features Royal Peacock stone from Clay International, which extends to cover all kitchen worktops. Its dramatic veining creates natural focal points that make each installation unique. Above the understated bronze-brushed taps, we chose backlit, reeded glazed wall cabinets with an exterior Farrow & Ball's 'Jitney' finish – a muted yet sophisticated tone that brings warmth without overwhelming the overall aesthetic. The textured glass diffuses warm light whilst keeping the space feeling open, adding another layer of softness that makes the whole design come together.

Open the cabinet doors and you'll find American black walnut interiors lining every drawer and cabinet. Imperial saffron drawer linings add an unexpected touch of colour, visible only when in use.

Below the stone worktop, the same American black walnut tones are complemented by scalloped accent doors, creating subtle texture and contrasting dark and light tones. Each curve is hand-shaped by our makers, catching light as it moves across the kitchen throughout the day, to continue the goal of creating a warm, calming kitchen that truly showcases luxury living.

Brushed brass hardware and inlays connect every element, complemented by carefully chosen fixtures developing the character of the space whilst providing practical functionality to match the client's daily lifestyle.

INTEGRATED WALL PANELLING

Designed for those who appreciate detail, we created an integrated wall panelling painted in matching 'Jitney' that extends the kitchen's warm aesthetic throughout the open-plan space. This achieves the effect of having the design carried on throughout different regions of the home, whilst also defining different zones with statement pieces and features that make each area feel unique.

WARDROBE DESIGN THROUGHOUT

Continuing on the kitchen's material story, we designed bespoke wardrobes, each featuring the same 'Jitney' exterior finish and American black walnut interiors, imperial saffron linings, and brushed brass hardware. The master bedroom wardrobe includes an additional layer of detail. Behind the mirror is walnut-slatted panelling with black vegan leather-lined backing, a unique addition that adds another touch of elegance to the overall design.


CRAFTSMANSHIP EXCELLENCE

Every element demonstrates HAUHAU's workshop expertise. Hand-selected materials that each work to contribute to the final vision, allowing clients to not only love what they see but also love how it makes them feel. HAUHAU delicately balances form and function, creating spaces where every detail encourages you to pause and take a moment to appreciate the design around you. 

INDIVIDUAL ARTISAN ASSIGNMENT

Each HAUHAU project is entrusted to a single master craftsman who personally oversees every aspect of creation. This individual attention ensures consistency of quality whilst allowing for the subtle refinements that distinguish exceptional workmanship from typical design construction.

FOURTH-GENERATION EXCELLENCE

Founded by Ben Rollings, whose family legacy spans over 150 years of master cabinetmaking, HAUHAU brings unparalleled expertise to every project. This heritage of excellence has created remarkable interiors for royalty, business leaders, and individuals who demand nothing less than perfection.

THE HAUHAU DIFFERENCE

Throughout this home, every detail was designed with purpose and pride. Good design is more than just how something looks—it’s about how it makes you feel. Whilst working across several rooms in the house, we focused on creating continuity from room to room—whether it’s walnut tones shifting subtly, imperial saffron linings maintaining the luxurious standards, or brass details carrying over the warm undertones, our only goal is to create a truly unique design for each and every client whilst demonstrating HAUHAU’S dedication to excellence, skilled craftsmanship, and unmatched quality designs.

PRIVATE CHEF EXPERIENCE

We know that our clients deserve the very best from their new kitchen. This is why, after every kitchen installation, we arrange for renowned chef Elliot Johnson-Paul of JP Dining to come in and prepare a complimentary private dining experience for up to 10 guests in your new space, to ensure you truly experience every aspect in its full glory.
