As Seen on Socials: Summer 2025

At STORI, we believe the kitchen is more than just a place to cook – it’s the heart of the home. It’s where memories are made, stories are shared, and the little details matter. We’re proud to collaborate with talented designers, skilled craftspeople, and, of course, the homeowners who bring our kitchens to life.

Here’s what some of our favourite home influencers had to say about their STORI spaces:

Eating with Emily’s Kitchen

Emily’s love for cooking shines through in every detail of her inframe Belgravia kitchen, painted Taupe Grey. Designed and fitted by Mill Town Kitchens (Premium Retailer), the space reflects her personal style and passion for food.

“This kitchen really was a dream come true for me. It was years in the making and a year later I still can’t believe it’s finally here. I love cooking, and the kitchen is the heart of our home. I honestly couldn’t love it more. The design and quality were exactly what I hoped for and more. We used Mill Town Kitchens, and they were nothing short of exceptional – answering all my questions and helping to get the best possible design for the space.”

A true labour of love, Emily’s kitchen is a place for culinary creativity and cosy family moments.

Building Willow Cottage with Jenny & Philip

Installed in 2022, Jenny and Philip’s Aldana kitchen combines durability with timeless design. With solid ash doors in Indigo and Cashmere, the colour scheme is bold yet classic – perfect for a busy family home.

“We’re absolutely delighted with the quality and finish of our kitchen. It’s a beautiful and highly practical space that continues to bring joy to our everyday living.

We would absolutely recommend STORI products; the quality is fantastic, and the durability of the cabinetry has really stood the test of time in our busy home. Your only difficulty will be choosing from their fabulous range of colours and styles!”

Designed in collaboration with their kitchen fitter, this is a kitchen built to last – and to live in.

At Home with Andy & Jess

Andy and Jess’s Wakefield kitchen is all about effortless entertaining. From the luxurious wood finish in Mussel to the clever use of skirting board plinths for a more high-end look, this space blends elegance with functionality.

“The kitchen is the heart of our home, and having it open plan with a huge island makes hosting dinner parties and cocktail nights a dream. We love the flexibility of creating bespoke elements (we had a bespoke unit built to hide our boiler), and the colour choices inside and out were exactly what we were looking for.”

Their designer, Vie Kitchens (Approved Retailer), worked closely with them to bring their vision to life, and the result is a kitchen that earns compliments time and time again.

Aisling’s Limestone Home

Aisling’s renovation journey is nothing short of inspiring. Built circa 1780, her home has undergone extensive renovations to restore original stone walls, chimney features, and windows – beautifully integrated with a stunning Aldana kitchen in Deep Forest, installed by DWK (Premium Retailer).

To maximise light and space, Aisling opted out of wall cabinets in favour of a long island with seating and double-sided storage.

“Our home blends historic charm with thoughtful modern design. In keeping with the cottage aesthetic, we were trying to achieve, we used reclaimed wood for shelving, brass cup handles, a brass mixer tap, and a farmhouse butler sink from Caple. This is a kitchen that tells a story – and one that’s clearly been told with love.”
