Welcome to a beyond dreamy architecturally magnificent kitchen in Cotswold, England with the most richly gathered natural materials and timeless design. Timeless English Country Kitchen Tour: Inspiring Luxurious Design With Bespoke Natural Design Materials is a study in sophistication, superior craftsmanship, and elegant simplicity as imagined by the superb artistry of deVOL and designer Susie Atkins .
Bespoke Kitchen Design: deVOL Kitchens. Project: Cotswold Barn. Interior Design: Susie Atkinson Design.
While I have shared a host of design styles over the past decade on Hello Lovely (for seasons we were obsessed with Scandinavian white purity and then Belgian modern simplicity, etc.), the blog’s mother tongue is the language of TIMELESS, TRANQUIL, and NATURAL design elements.
It’s a language deVOL speaks fluently!

Showstopping Arabescato Corchia Marble for Island and Backsplash
Arabescato Corchia Overview
Arabescato Corchia is a heavily brecciated polished Italian marble quarried in Stazzema, Provincia di Lucca, and Toscana with ivory clasts floating in a grey-brown background. Breccias are a naturally occurring type of sedimentary rock that occur when pre-existing rocks or minerals break up and reform, cementing together into an entirely new material.
You may also come across sources for Arabescato carrara marble such as a mosaic like this:
AGA Range Cooker
While at first glance, an AGA like this one in this magnificent deVOL kitchen may appear to have six ovens, an AGA range cooker offers just five ovens as well as a control panel.
Insulated covers and hot plates are located on top of the range, while the ovens below are for simmering, baking, and roasting.
For a brilliant lesson in how a wondrous AGA works magic, treat yourself to this engaging education:
The expense of a five oven AGA for your kitchen may give you pause since the range is in the $30k range! What are the bougie to do about that when the budget is closer to 30 bucks?
Hahahaha! I think a mini AGA makes the perfect little stocking stuffer or hostess gift for European country design fans!

Love, love Devol kitchens! When remodeling my kitchen (earlier this year) I used Shaker style cabinet door fronts on all lower cabinets and flats fronts on upper drawers as in the Devol kitchens. I do feel it is classic & timeless. I did go with stainless steel appliances but I’m not completely happy with the up keep. It shows every hand print and smudge and that’s not even when I’ve been cooking on the stove top…lol! I wanted a Lacanche stove and a Sub Zero Fridge w/ custom cabin door fronts but the cost was prohibitive since I was removing three walls to enlarge the kitchen.

Your kitchen sounds beautiful – I do love that look of the slab drawer front. Stainless does come with all those fingerprint issues, doesn’t it? I chose smudgeproof stainless from Kitchenaid for the Arizona kitchen, and what a difference! I hope they keep making that stuff because it was so much dreamier to maintain, and I’m a sucker for sleek appliance handles and Kitchenaid wowed me with those too. There’s a Lacanche and a French farmhouse in my dreams, and it’s okay if they stay there since my imagination is always a heartbeat away. 🙂
