Pared Back Design
Pluck blends a passion for beautiful and sustainable materials with an intricate knowledge of practical kitchen design. To achieve the pared back, simple look of our cabinetry and furniture every element has been meticulously considered.
Tailored Fit
From awkward corners to chimney breasts and a myriad of other architectural features, we know that each room we design a kitchen for will have its own individual quirks, so we tailor our cabinetry to fit these details. This means visually, a Pluck kitchen looks in harmony with its surroundings, and practically, we use space efficiently.
Durable Design
The careful choices we have made about the materials we use and the companies we source from, combined with the design of our cabinetry and furniture, are about quality and longevity. Pluck kitchens are durable but should damage occur during or after installation, our cabinets are designed so individual elements can be remade and replaced.
Designing Your Kitchen
Along with the obvious decisions about layout, colour and wood combinations in your Pluck kitchen, here are further aspects of the design you will have the opportunity to consider:
Cupboards and Drawers
Sufficient storage is a vital ingredient of successful kitchen design. Using our standard drawers and cupboards as the basic building blocks, we will create a kitchen that reflects your priorities for the room, from pan and cutlery drawers to food and crockery cupboards our standard range alone covers all the essentials, but we also have furniture you may wish to add, including:
Pluck larders – designed to be as beautiful on the inside as the outside.
Glazed cabinets – a very lovely alternative to solid doored wall cabinetry.
The Work Table – a celebration of stunning materials and traditional carpentry techniques.
The Brixton Dresser – our modern take on a traditional favourite.
More detailed information about these pieces can be found here.

Shelving
Shelves provide light, airy and easily accessible storage and are a great way to add texture and layering once they are arranged with treasured objects or books.
We offer three shelf designs, floating, integrated and Spoke. All of our shelves are made to order in your choice of Pluck colours and woods.
Floating shelves have wall brackets within the shelf for a streamline finish and work well as a single shelf or in groups.
Integrated shelving can be incorporated into a range of kitchen layouts as a tall shelving unit, low bookcase or even nestled amongst wall cabinets.
Spoke is a more decorative shelving option. Drawing inspiration from Victorian bamboo furniture, our design includes diagonal supporting struts and dowels that sit proud of the shelf fronts.

Handles
Pluck cabinetry has recessed handles. We like the clean lines they give with no jutting hardware, plus although small in size, the handle back colour and material can have a considerable impact on a kitchen’s scheme. You can choose from any of the Pluck colours or woods as well as an unlacquered brass finish.
The handles are available in four shapes: square, pill, circle and rectangle.

Worktops
Arguably the most hardworking surface in the kitchen, the worktop you choose will reflect your aesthetic and it becomes a manifestation of your personality! Do you care about staining and tarnishing over time? Ideally, do you want a material that can be kept as pristine as when it was first installed?
From industrial stainless steel, to classic marble, traditional woods or contemporary terrazzo and more, we have yet to come across a worktop that doesn’t look lovely with Pluck’s cabinetry and furniture.
We have contacts for trusted suppliers and an extensive selection of samples in our studio, plus a project portfolio with a library of different worktops in-situ. We can be hands on in helping you choose a worktop for your kitchen.

Hardware
We know that not everyone will be able to get excited about hardware, but you will open your drawers and cupboards probably thousands of times a year and the mechanism and motion you experience needs to be satisfying but also well made.
We only use hardware brands of the highest quality that are engineered to last. Not only this but the companies we source from are ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 certified meaning they have internationally recognised Environmental and Energy Management Systems in place.

Appliances
We encourage reusing your appliances where possible, but when this is not an option investing in new kit that reflects your needs is essential. Think about how much fridge and freezer space is appropriate. Do you want your appliances to be freestanding or integrated? How high-tech do you want to go? Perhaps you need more than one oven, how many rings on your hob. Lots of questions, we will help you answer! We sell Bora products and can source other brands too.
Sinks and Taps
There are a myriad of wonderful options when it comes to sinks and taps and one of the first things to determine is whether you wish to go for a traditional or contemporary style. We can advise on the options available and have many examples of different types of sinks and taps in-situ to help inform your choices. We sell Quooker taps and can source other tap brands and sinks too.
