Sebastian Ashwood Project

Sebastian Ashwood, updating his beautiful property in the desirable Clifton area of Bristol, aimed to create a bright, contemporary culinary space that maximised natural light. He selected sleek, white high-gloss handleless cabinetry to establish a highly reflective, minimalist foundation, beautifully complemented by soft pastel green walls and warm wood-effect flooring. To tie this refreshing colour palette together and add a touch of organic luxury, he required a striking statement surface. We knew that Mono Calacatta Borghini quartz would provide the ultimate luminous canvas.

 
The U-shaped design is incredibly efficient, naturally drawing the eye towards the stunning bay window at the far end of the room. While exploring different options for quartz worktops in Bristol, Sebastian wanted a surface that would maximise natural light while complementing the soft, contemporary palette of the kitchen. The pristine Mono Calacatta Borghini quartz flows seamlessly across the base units, elegantly accommodating a modern gas hob. Positioned perfectly within the bay window is a sleek stainless steel undermount sink, offering an uninterrupted view over the garden.

 
A key architectural feature of the installation is the intelligent use of the stone around the complex bay window. Matching upstands and fully clad quartz window sills create a seamless, wipe-clean finish across all three window panels, reinforcing the clean lines of the design. Expert fabrication and installation by Monolux Worktops ensured every detail fitted perfectly, giving the entire kitchen a refined, bespoke finish.
