The client approached NIX to design their family kitchen in Greenwich. The brief centred on two key goals: maximising storage and creating a smooth, intuitive flow for everyday cooking. To achieve this, we incorporated two full-height larders, bespoke spice racks, deep drawers, and ceiling-height cabinetry — ensuring every inch of space works as hard as it can.
A Dusty Pink finish brings warmth and personality, balanced by striking black and brass fittings. Exposed Birch Plywood endgrain adds a raw, tactile detail that grounds the space with natural texture. With the client’s passion for cooking in mind, the layout was planned for total functionality. A seamless connection between sink, hob, and fridge creates a space where daily routines feel easy, efficient, and considered — in a kitchen designed to be lived in. Built by Stagg Build.

Tom began his career in the workshop, developing a deep understanding of materiality and manufacture before gaining over a decade of experience as a designer. Drawing direct inspiration from the making process, Tom spends time in metal forges, welding shops, and fine woodworking studios to uncover new techniques and processes that evolve into refined, distinctive products.
His work is characterised by honesty, geometric form, and clarity, always striving to achieve a sense of ‘rightness’ in each design. Based in Walthamstow’s Blackhorse Workshop, Nix Studio has a non-site studio and workshop for testing, refining, and developing ideas before moving them into production.
