Pared-back and poised

Suffolk

This spring sees an update to Suffolk. Nothing too radical, but rather building on its strong foundations. We’ve pared it back even more so it’s minimal the whole way through – as Shaker designs should be. We’ve added a number of new cabinets and updated existing ones based on things we’ve learnt since it was first created. And we’ve updated its colour palette to make it a little less country, and more of a blank but beautiful canvas.

In a nutshell:
Clean-lined, quietly elegant

Cabinets:
Tulipwood, plywood and oak

Standard colour:
Driftwood

Standard interior colour:
Silver Birch with oak features

Catches:
Magnetic chrome

One kitchen. Countless different looks.

Different layouts, different colours, different handles, different flooring and different walls. The possibilities aren't quite endless, but they're close.

Design details

There’s so much more than two or three design details to share with you for each of our collections, but below we’ve picked our just a few of our favourites for Suffolk. The rest you’ll find out when you see them, in person. We wouldn’t want to spoil the surprise…

Bi-fold countertop

Behind these concertinaed doors are adjustable shelves and an open-base so you can use the worktop space for storing and using appliances.

Drawer accessories

The drawers in Suffolk will come totally empty so that you can choose which accessories you add in to make them as easy and lovely to use as possible, from oak spice rack inserts to a stainless steel-lined wet store.

Pre-lit cabinetry

Most of our Suffolk cabinetry has the option of having strips of LED lighting fitting inside so the contents are subtly illuminated and things easier to find.

Potboard

This slim design is almost like a kitchen's console table in that it's unobtrusive and endlessly useful. It can be used on its own or at the end of a kitchen island and works as extra chopping space.

Double-door larder

Every Neptune kitchen features a larder, but no two are quite the same. Suffolk’s is the only one that comes in two-door form. It’s the very definition of cavernous...

Drawers-in-drawers

Inside some of our cabinets, there are hidden inner drawers so that you can make the most of the cabinet's height and depth. In our trio of pan drawers, the uppermost has one that we like to use for extra utensils and parchment paper.
