What is a Hamptons style Kitchen?

Hamptons interiors are light and bright with that coastal vibe that makes you feel relaxed from the moment you walk in, says Catherine, but they can appear formal with their use of dark timber and highly contrasting tones.

By using lots of natural textures, relaxed linen, other design elements like vertical-groove panelling, natural materials, in the way of timber bedside tables, she was able to create the Hamptons look with a bit of an update, she explains.

“Whilst it’s really relaxed and coastal it is also anchored in the US Hamptons style, so we struck a balance between a relaxed coastal vibe and the more formal Hamptons theme.”

Kitchen features

Hamptons-style kitchens are generously proportioned but retain a welcoming charm. They are the heart of the home and combine the latest kitchen conveniences in a traditional setting. Some key design features help bring the look together.
