Ray Munn Kitchens

Choosing a kitchen is a bit like naming a baby. The moment people find out you're doing it, the suggestions start rolling in.

"You should get a boiling water tap."

"Have you thought about navy blue?"

"You'll regret not having an island."

The challenge isn't finding opinions. It's figuring out which ones actually matter.

That's where a good designer comes in.

Hello September 🍂

The season for comforting dishes is officially here.

Think creamy risottos, homemade soups, bubbling pasta bakes, slow-cooked casseroles and something sweet baking in the oven.

September is a lovely time to get back into the kitchen, try a few new recipes and make the most of those cosy evenings at home.

What is your go-to autumn dish? 🍲

Houseplants have officially earned a place in the kitchen. 🌿

They're one of the biggest interior trends right now, adding colour, texture and a sense of calm to the busiest room in the home.

Our favourite kitchen-friendly plants include:
🌱 Basil and other fresh herbs
🪴 Spider Plants
🌿 Pothos
🌸 Peace Lilies
🍃 Snake Plants
🌴 Monsteras

Whether it's a few herbs on the windowsill or a statement plant beside your island, a little greenery can completely change the feel of your space.

Designing a kitchen for entertaining is about more than just having enough space - it’s about how the room flows and how people naturally gather within it.

Large islands create an easy social focal point, drinks stations keep everything close to hand without interrupting the main cooking space, and open-plan layouts help the kitchen feel connected to the rest of the home. The result is a space that feels relaxed, welcoming, and easy to host in, whether it’s a quick coffee or a full evening with friends.

A well-planned entertaining space should feel just as good to use as it does to spend time in.✨

One of the most common things people tell us after moving into their new kitchen is that everything finally has a place.

If you’ve ever found yourself rummaging through a crowded cupboard for a pan, buying another jar of paprika because you couldn’t see the one you already had, or balancing dishes like a work of art, you’re not alone.

The reality is that most people don’t have too little storage. They simply don’t have the right storage.

In our latest blog, we share some of our favourite kitchen storage ideas and look at how thoughtful planning can make your cupboards, drawers and every available inch work harder for you.

School's out for summer! ☀️

The kids are home, the fridge is being raided every five minutes, and somehow there's already a pile of glasses by the sink. 😅

The kitchen really does become the busiest room in the house during the school holidays.

If your kitchen isn't quite keeping up with family life, now could be the perfect time to start planning a space that works better for everyone.

When you’re planning a new kitchen, it’s easy to get caught up choosing cabinet colours, worktops and appliances. But some of the smallest decisions can make the biggest difference to how your kitchen feels to use every day.

One of those is where your oven should sit.

In our latest blog, we explore how high your oven should be, what factors to consider, and how the right position can make cooking more comfortable and practical.

Thank you to our clients for the kind words and our team for their new kitchen.🌟

Creating bespoke spaces always comes down to good collaboration, careful attention to detail, and making sure the process feels as considered as the finished result itself. Hearing that reflected back in feedback like this genuinely means a lot to us.

It’s the smaller details that make this display stand out the more time you spend with it.

The open shelving, glass-fronted cabinetry, handleless design, layered lighting, and carefully balanced materials all work together to give the kitchen a cleaner, more refined feel without losing warmth or character.
