About Matrix Kitchens. 

Welcome. My name is Graham Barnard and I thank you for visiting our website.

 

I created Matrix almost 25 years ago with a vision to do things differently and to put the client at the heart of the designs we create for them. Kitchen desgners often tend to impose their design values on the projects they are involved in because the limitations of their ranges give them no alternative. Our designs celebrate the uniqueness and individuality of the client - creativity without boundaries. We blend and mix styles, palettes and products to achieve designs that are timeless and reflect our clients lifestyles. I hope we can get the opportunity to show that to you.

 

I love design. Ive always loved design. It's something that burns every second of every day - the need to create. I am naturally inquisitive and find inspiration everywhere. That wild inquisitive nature will often find me on random bike packing tours, or standing in the garden, at night, in the cold, with my telescope. I read and question everything because I want to continue to learn and be inspired. I take this passion into every scheme, every discussion, whether it's about mixing materials and finishes or designing the perfect cutlery and utensil solutions. I started my design journey in 1984 as a YTS working for Salvarani Cucina, a hugely innovative and influential kitchen design house based outside Milan . Along the way, I headed design teams in, Fulham, Knightsbridge and Chelsea Harbour, before starting out on my own. I have been privileged to work on incredible projects with amazing people.  We work right across the UK as well as overseas and have undertaken work in Monaco, Bahrain, Jordan, France, Antigua, Italy, Switzerland, Russia, Israel, New York and Portugal, as well as closer to home in Jersey and Guernsey. I regard my clients as friends.
