It was clear from the outset that the new extended kitchen/living space would be the hub of the Khoollect HQ studio but what became clear was the importance of the space working as both, despite the potential challenges of being open plan.

This meant we needed something extra special to transform our kitchen from a place of work to a cosy, homely space of refuge… in just a matter of steps.

Editor-in-Chief Rachel Khoo wanted to make sure that didn’t just mean a comfy chair stuck awkwardly in the middle of a kitchen, so she chose a few choice pieces to bring the tiny spot together; including a vintage rug, vintage chandelier and Sofa.com’s 2.5 seater sofa bed in dove grey smart velvet (as well as an abundance of throws and cushions) to create the ‘living’ area zone. A bit like that bride saying goes ‘something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue’, she believed an interior space should go with a similar idea. Though we’re yet to find out something blue – perhaps another cushion?

Practically speaking, we still get all of the functionality of a kitchen without the disturbances; the hidden appliances in our beautiful deVOL cabinets make sure that a boiler, washer/dryer and fridge freezer work in a cosy zone.

Then there’s our rather large Art Deco brass mirrored cabinet (it took 6 men to get into the flat), which adds a vintage touch and also comes in handy to display all the beautiful crockery EIC Rachel Khoo has collected over the year (and we get to use for photo shoots too).

Love our studio as much as we do? You can now hire it for photoshoots! To enquire please email [email protected].
