Michelin chefs’ dream house in House & Home, November 2025

We wanted the house to feel open and lived-in — a place where we could cook and entertain,” say chefs Fraser and Georgina of @quatrefoilrestaurant.

Their dream came to life in this serene, chef-led family home — where the custom L-shaped island, designed and built by Hamilton Holmes, anchors the kitchen with sculptural precision and everyday function.

Where two chefs’ first family dream home kitchen meets sculptural craftsmanship; a modern take on English design traditions, built for gathering, cooking, and family life.

Walkthrough

Here’s a glimpse into what we build at Hamilton Holmes — sculptural millwork shaped for real homes, real families, and chefs who live through their kitchens.

This L-shaped island is part of a Michelin-recommended chefs’ dream home: a space where gathering, cooking, and quiet moments all meet the warmth of wood and the precision of craft.

Custom-built in our Hamilton studio, the island curves are designed to feel lived-in, tactile, and timeless — a modern expression of English design traditions, interpreted through our lens of craftsmanship.

If you’re discovering us for the first time… welcome.

This is the heart of what we do: design with purpose, fabricate with intention, and build pieces made to live beautifully for decades.
