When Martin Moore first launched the New Deco kitchen in 2018, it redefined the possibilities of the kitchen by elevating a part of the home that is purely functional with a breathtaking combination of highly creative design, beautiful materials and exceptional craftsmanship.
‘I created New Deco to encourage fresh design ideas for contemporary kitchen and living spaces,’ says Richard Moore, design director of the company that has, for almost 50 years, led the field in luxury British kitchens. Beautiful materials such as metallics, porcelain and rare stones ensure that this is truly one of a kind.
Next month, Country Life and Martin Moore will offer readers an opportunity to see the New Deco kitchen brought to life as part of an exciting collaboration with interior designer Henry Prideaux.
Together, they have created an imaginative space within Design Centre, Chelsea Harbour’s WOW!house, which combines the requirements of a luxury modern-day kitchen with the glamour that innovative interior design can offer. Custom-built furniture from the New Deco collection has been embellished with glamorous wall coverings, a gold-leaf ceiling, sumptuous velvets, as well as opulent statement lighting, all commissioned from a handful of bespoke makers.
‘Anyone who appreciates luxury, elegance and quality craftsmanship, with a sense of frivolity and a love of entertaining, will love this kitchen,’ says Mr Prideaux.
