Putting great design at the heart of the home since 1953, the Laura Ashley Kitchen Collection is all about creating a hub of the home that’s calm, tranquil and efficiently organised. Having a place for everything and everything in its place is what gives kitchens a sense of order, where ingredients, cookware, crockery, utensils, glassware, gadgets and all those other daily culinary essentials can be accessed easily when needed then tidied neatly away after use.
Each Laura Ashley kitchen is expertly crafted by Symphony in Yorkshire using the finest materials, signature colour palettes, innovative technology and savvy design to make the most of every inch. There are plenty of options to suit every space and lifestyle with everything from open displays and cleverly concealed storage to luxurious bar pantry storage, perfect for entertaining.
Mottram Bar Pantry in Harbour Grey
Also ideal for entertaining family and friends is an easily accessible wine drawer, offering handy storage for a growing wine collection. This skilfully crafted wooden design complements the modern Shaker style of the Mottram kitchen beautifully, with the natural warmth of the timber adding the perfect accent to the Dusky Pink palette.

Oak cutlery drawers also enhance the clean, simple lines of this modern Shaker kitchen, with the iconic Laura Ashley name engraved on the side. This tailor-made solution will keep cutlery, sharp knives and utensils safely tucked away and neatly organised yet still within quick and easy reach.
Oak Cutlery Tray
When there’s not enough space for a walk-in pantry or freestanding larder, a slimline pantry with pull-out drawers makes great use of space at the end of a wall of floor-to-ceiling cupboards, as shown below. These deep drawers are ideal for dried ingredients, baking essentials and tall bottles and can be teamed with open shelving for flexible storage to suit the cook’s needs. A full-height wine cabinet on one side is also a great investment piece, especially for anyone who loves to entertain and host special occasions for family and friends.

In smaller spaces, the unfitted look can make a kitchen feel airy and spacious. Introducing a freestanding storage consol or sideboard that combines open and closed storage with shelving for crockery and glasses, and drawers for cutlery, utensils and all those kitchen bits and bobs that never usually have a home, is a great alternative to all fitted units. Team with open shelving above to display books, fresh herbs, glasses and cups.

With a Laura Ashley fitted kitchen, every detail is carefully considered. Wall cabinets for instance, don’t just have to be wall cabinets. They can also include integrated spice racks on the side, perfect for keeping fresh herbs, dried spices and bottles of olive oils close to hand ready for cooking.

Pan drawers can be more versatile than cupboards with doors, as they allow for stacked storage of pans and baking trays, all of which can be located underneath the hob for quick and easy access.
