Your Kitchen Design Journey Starts Here
Three things shape every Gorringe kitchen. Open any one to read more.
We're a kitchen company in Worthing, and our job is to turn the kitchen you've pictured into one that works in the room you actually have.
That starts with how you use the space rather than with a catalogue. Who cooks, how often, how many of you are in the room at once, where the light falls: those answers shape the layout, and the finishes follow from there.
Handleless fronts, deep pan drawers, integrated appliances and full-height larders have all moved from unusual to expected in recent years. We'll show you what's worth the money in your kitchen and what won't earn its place.
Most kitchens that don't work were designed with care. The problems tend to be small ones that only show up once you're living with them.
A walkway an inch too narrow when the dishwasher door is down. A bin at the wrong end of the run from the sink. An oven door that opens into the route between hob and worktop. Sockets placed before anyone knew where the kettle would live. These are cheap to fix on a drawing and costly to fix afterwards.
We work these through at the design stage, so the layout suits how you move around the room before anything is ordered.
A kitchen that looks right and works badly is a kitchen you'll notice every day, so the two have to be settled together.
Most of the gain is in storage. Drawers rather than base cupboards, corner units that pull the whole shelf out to you, a larder that puts everything at eye level: the same footprint holds considerably more and you stop losing things at the back.
The kitchen is also one of the first rooms buyers judge, so a well-planned one tends to hold its value in a way a cheap refit doesn't. That's a reason to get the layout right rather than a reason to overspend.
Things to Consider When Designing Your Kitchen
Ready to bring your dream kitchen to life? As the leading kitchen designers in Worthing, GORRINGE Kitchens & Bathrooms is committed to transforming your ideas into a living reality.
The work triangle is the oldest idea in kitchen design and still the most useful: keep the sink, hob and fridge within easy reach of one another and the everyday routine stops feeling like work.
In practice it bends to the room you have. An island, a galley and a single-wall run each handle it differently, and a second cook, a bin, an open dishwasher door all pull at it. Working those clearances out on the drawing is what makes the finished kitchen feel natural to move around.
A kitchen that feels short of space is usually under-planned rather than genuinely too small.
Corner mechanisms that bring the whole shelf out to you, tall larders that put everything at eye level, narrow pull-outs beside the hob for oils and trays: the footprint stays the same and considerably more fits into it. We'll work out what you need to reach daily and plan the storage around that.
Colour decides whether the room reads as calm or lively, and it's the choice people find hardest to make on a screen.
Pale, low-contrast schemes open up a smaller kitchen and let the worktop do the talking. Darker cabinetry gives a larger room depth and takes daily use more forgivingly. Either way it's worth seeing the door finish against your flooring, in your own light, before anything is decided.
Kitchen lighting works in layers rather than from a single ceiling fitting: task light on the worktop, general light for the room, and something softer for the evening.
Under-cabinet strips handle the chopping. Pendants over an island mark where people gather. Put the layers on separate switches or a dimmer and the same room moves from breakfast to dinner without anything else changing. Open-plan spaces need this most, since the kitchen has to keep working while the rest of the room is relaxing.
The floor sets the tone of the room and takes more punishment than anything else in it, so style and practicality have to be settled together.
Tile is hard-wearing and cool underfoot, which makes it a natural partner for underfloor heating. Wood and wood-effect bring warmth and are kinder to stand on through a long evening of cooking. The deciding factor is often what happens at the edges: whether the kitchen floor should stop at the doorway or carry on through the rest of the space.
