The Laura Ashley Kitchen Collection, in partnership with the Symphony Group, features six exquisitely designed ranges presenting the very best in British kitchen design - a mix of traditional and contemporary styles which have been designed for ‘the way you live today’.

There are kitchens to suit every type of home from urban apartment to country cottage. Each of the six ranges is available in a variety of hand-painted or oak finishes, all designed in the Laura Ashley tradition.

The ranges are:

Bedale: Drawing on Laura Ashley’s design heritage to create a classic kitchen style. The hand-painted panel doors with delicate handles deliver a truly elegant kitchen.

Harwood: The beautifully crafted in-frame Harwood is a classic Laura Ashley creation. Offered in a palette of soft muted colours, Harwood features plate racks, dressers and glazed china cabinets to achieve that distinctive traditional British look.

Whitby: Simple, yet elegant; Whitby showcases the best of shaker design, making it ideal for making the kitchen the heart of the home.

Marlow: Fusing simple style and elegance, Marlow is everything you’d expect from a modern Laura Ashley kitchen range. Available in hand-painted colours, or a choice of sophisticated gloss finishes, Marlow is a unique kitchen that impresses from every angle.

Linton: Purity is at the heart of the Linton range. This versatile range features truly stunning accessories combined with simple shaker style in natural wood.

Richmond: A contemporary kitchen range which is minimal and modern in its design, Richmond combines natural shades to bring a luxurious touch of refinement.
