Contemporary kitchens

Essen kitchens in Newcastle.

Essen is the core collection within Unity, combining flat slab doors with a choice of matt colours and natural-looking woodgrain finishes. Its nine decors give you scope to create a light, darker or two-tone kitchen, with doors made to measure for your design.

We design, supply and install Essen kitchens across Newcastle upon Tyne and Northumberland. We help you plan the layout, storage and finishes around your home, then personally manage the installation.

Matt colour and the look of woodgrain.

Essen's flat slab design keeps the cabinetry simple, leaving the finish to shape the look of the room. Choose a matt colour across the kitchen or introduce a woodgrain-effect finish on the island, tall units or a separate run of cabinets.

The gallery includes room views and finish moodboards. One setting combines Essen Grey Bardolino Oak with Linea Deep Blue and Metara Steel Oxide, showing how different collections within Unity can be used together.

An Essen kitchen made to fit your plans.

Essen is made to measure, giving us flexibility when planning the cabinetry around your room. We help you work through the measurements and storage, then compare your door finishes with handles, worktops and flooring.

During installation, our owner Stephen visits every day to oversee the work and coordinate the team. He knows your project and is there to talk things through as your kitchen takes shape.

Friendly and professional with Stephen overseeing the job daily.

Thank you Lifestyle KBB Ltd for fitting a lovely kitchen for me, including coving and amazing flooring! We discussed what I thought were good ideas which in fact were not, and amended by KBB's help to make it much better. All the workmen who visited my home were friendly and professional with Stephen overseeing the job daily.
