NEW AND IMPROVED!

- The couple used Milestone Kitchens’ downloadab­le planner to design their space to perfection. Tiyon and Sipho removed all their fitted kitchen cupboards.

A small outdated space is now the hub of this home with the addition of stylish freestandi­ng units from Milestone Kitchens.

This charming home in Cape Town ticked all the right boxes for engaged couple Tiyon Loubser and Sipho Evans – except when it came to the kitchen.

Although its location is ideal and it forms part of the open-plan living and dining room area, it was small and needed a revamp. Keen to upgrade the heart of their home, the couple turned to Milestone Kitchens, a family-owned business well-known for its quality freestandi­ng units.

“Using Milestone Kitchens’ website and downloadab­le kitchen planner, we started conceptual­ising the design; once we’d ordered the units, the entire process – from delivery to installati­on – took about a month,” explains Tiyon. “We did everything ourselves, from removing the old chipboard cupboards that were stuck to the walls to fitting the new units and painting the walls. We just left the plumbing and electrics to the profession­als.”

Thanks to Milestone Kitchens’ stylish and versatile units, Tiyon and Sipho were able to extend the kitchen into the dining area to gain more space.

“Now we have extra counter space for cooking as well as plenty of storage for all our appliances. It has made all the difference to our living area and we now spend lots of quality time here with our family and friends – it’s a very comfortabl­e and happy spot!” says Tiyon.
