Most kitchens are designed by adding. This one was designed by taking away until one thing was left: a worktop, nine metres long, under a window that runs the same length.

## What is on it

A sink at one end, a hob at the other, and seven metres of nothing in between. That nothing is the kitchen.

## What is under it

Drawers, all the way. No cupboards, because a cupboard is a drawer you have to kneel for. The fridge is a drawer too.

## What is above it

The window, and a single shelf for the things that are used every day. Everything else is in the drawers. The wall is empty, and the room is calm because of it.

The clients said they wanted a kitchen that looked like a workshop. This is a workshop that happens to make dinner.
