British bespoke kitchen designers Plain English were inspired by "the wild beauty of Osea Island" in their design for the Osea Kitchen, on view at the company's Marylebone showroom. Among its charms: a utility room tucked behind a wall of steel-framed windows (separating the laundry and a workroom from the main kitchen space without blocking light). We also like the wood paneled walls paired with wide-plank oak flooring to create a visually seamless look. Go to Plain English Design to see more of the company's work.

Above: The mix of countertop surfaces is not only visually appealing but also serves the cook well: the butcher block surface can be used as a cutting board, the marble surface is baker friendly, and the durable matte stone stands up to pots and pans.
