Kitchen of the Week: A Simple System from Studio MacLean in London

London interior designer Jason MacLean recently launched Yellow Dot Kitchens—his own collection comprised of simple shapes cut by hand in entirely custom specifications.

“Yellow Dot Kitchens consists of one kitchen design with a choice of round or rectangular reverse-machined handle details,” says MacLean. Each one “is a bespoke piece designed for each individual space,” including a custom-designed plywood carcass—so MacLean has no constraints with standard sizes.

As an early example, MacLean installed a Yellow Dot design in a West London family home. Though most Yellow Dot Kitchens are boldly colored, with laminated plywood doors and matching countertops, this one is more subdued in hue.
