One of the many unique selling points of a bespoke designer kitchen is the opportunity to have your kitchen, your way. James and Janet Johnson found this out for themselves when they first became Broadway Kitchen customers back in 2013 and were so impressed that they were inspired to come back to Broadway when it came to re-invigorating their kitchen.

By dictionary definition the word ‘traditional’ means ‘long-established’ - a term not only applicable to Broadway Kitchens as a company but also to the traditional values and craftsmanship that it uses to create bespoke kitchens for customers. Of course what each person considers a 'traditional kitchen design' will depend on their age, background or lifestyle. It can mean anything from natural wood, painted wood, a Shaker kitchen or Edwardian elegance to an opulent and ostentatious Victorian kitchen.

When contemplating a bespoke Shaker Kitchen it’s worthwhile first looking into the origins of the term ‘Shaker’. England in the mid 17th century and a religious sect, the ‘Quakers’ formed. Due to their animated and ecstatic style of worship, ‘trembling and quaking at the word of the Lord’, they became known as ‘Shakers’.

The term ‘traditional kitchen’ most likely evokes different images for different people, according to what type of kitchen they are used to living with.
