We always love it when our beautiful kitchens get noticed by people. Whilst we try to share as many images as possible of our kitchens, we are sure that there will still be people who have not seen our kitchens! So when local interiors company Birdie Fortescue contacted us to see if they could use our show room as the backdrop for photos of their spring/summer collection, we didn't hesitate to say yes, as this is a brilliant way to show off our incredible kitchens through a new channel!

The Redhill Kitchen is a refreshingly unique take on a contemporary kitchen. With no inhibitions in this design, there is no doubt that this kitchen really allowed us to open our minds and embrace new design features. An unrestricted colour palette creates an electric atmosphere in this compact kitchen, and re-invents the family kitchen, ensuring all space is utilised in this compact room.

2017 has definitely been the year for changing trends in kitchens. We've seen some incredibly beautiful trends throughout the year, but also a few that we're happy to see never return! Whilst we like to see all of the different interior trends throughout the year, we never create kitchens just to go along with those trends. We like to create kitchens that will stand the test of time and would never be considered a fad, so despite some of our kitchens being incredibly modern, they will never be out of fashion as they have so many timeless features within their designs. We have incorporated some trends into the designs we have created this year as we know they will last, but there are a few that we knew would be very short-lived. This post is simply a round up of our favourite trends from the past year, and we hope you enjoy re-living it with us!

As with most companies, the lead up to Christmas is one of the busiest times of the year for us. We always try to ensure that our customers get their kitchens before Christmas, so that they can enjoy this festive period of the year in their new kitchen. At this time of the year, we love to see how our customers have dressed their kitchens for Christmas as we always think a kitchen looks even more special with some festive decorations! So we asked our customers who have purchased a Naked Kitchen this year, to send us in a few snaps of their room at Christmas so we can share with you our beautiful kitchen designs with a festive twist!

At Christmas, the kitchen is probably the room that will get the most use in the house. With the extra visits from family and friends at this time of the year, there is so much more socialising, drinking, eating and just general use of the kitchen. Whether its unexpected guests popping in for a quick drink and nibbles or a planned dinner party with lots of guests and a three course meal, your kitchen is going to need to be ready to face the battles of festive socialising. So to help you, we've created a list to help you get your kitchen match fit for this busy season! Architecture- NK Living, Photography- Chris Snook

Here at Naked Doors, we offer so many different door and drawer front styles, that you will simply be spoilt for choice. Our product is often the only option for people with a lower budget to get the designer kitchen they have dreamed of having for so long, so we want to have enough different style choices to ensure that people can create the kitchen they have always wanted. This blog post is a round up of just a few of our favourite door styles that we offer, with some images and recommendations to show you just how beautiful they can look in a kitchen. First up in the list is the Painted Shaker Door. A timeless, classic door style that has been given a modern update with the option to be painted in colour of your choice. With a raised frame around a central panel, this door style is one that has been seen in kitchen designs for centuries. By choosing the painted option for this door style means that you can have a kitchen style that will never date, and that doesn't feel old fashioned in any way. We love how the shaker door can also be used as a frameless kitchen front, which means the door sits on top of the cabinet carcass, and looks beautifully contemporary but still retains its timeless appeal. We recommend adding a cool handle to this door style to ensure it really stands out, like the leather handles added to the Brixton Kitchen below.

We're kicking off our latest series on the blog, which focuses on the use of colour, and with what is generally considered the biggest announcement in the colour world. This series will focus mainly on colour within the kitchen, but we will also look broadly at the latest trends in colour!

The one thing we decided when we started Naked Doors, was that we wanted to offer the option of a bespoke kitchen for people on a tighter budget. Many customers are now working on projects with a much smaller budget and the luxury of having a fully bespoke, designer kitchen is no longer a viable option for many people. People are looking for different ways to update their kitchen without a full renovation and often at a much lower price point. We wanted to offer an alternative to the high street retailers, who offer lower quality products and only in standard sizes. Naked Doors offers the chance to get the look of a designer bespoke Naked Kitchen and on a much lower budget. The quality of our cabinet doors is unlike any other you'll ever find in the industry. When purchasing doors from many companies on the market, you may think that you're purchasing replacement doors that are going to last for many years. However, the majority of the time you're actually purchasing doors that are worse quality than your current cabinet doors! With Naked Doors however, we offer the most incredible quality solid doors that are unlike anything else on the market! Additionally, we are a completely bespoke company. Everything we make for our customers is bespoke, and unique to their measurements. We can create doors to fit any size cabinet and any brand!

2017 has certainly been the year for Naked Kitchens gaining awareness within the manufacturing industry, as not only have we been invited to contribute to this years Parliamentary Review for the Manufacturing Industry, but Naked Kitchens were also invited to speak about building and growing a successful business at the HSBC Strategies For Growth event!
