Revolutionising Compact Living with Collins Construction
Revolutionising Compact Living with Collins Construction
At Elfin Kitchens, we proudly partnered with Collins Construction to deliver functional, stylish, and space-efficient kitchen solutions for Citi View, Paddington a premium student accommodation project redefining urban student living. Together, we ensured every kitchen aligned with the aesthetic and practical demands of modern student life.
Project Highlights
- 352 Compact Premium Range Kitchens Supplied
Made-to-measure kitchens ranging from 1200mm to 1265mm, tailored to maximise the available space. - Bespoke Design Solutions
A unique worktop-to-breakfast bar transition in Egger marble-effect finish was created to optimise usability and visual flow, perfectly suited to modern student living. - Custom Printed Splashbacks
Printed aluminium splashbacks to match the worktop design were developed for fire safety requirements. - Colour Matching Service
To ensure seamless integration with the overall interior design, we provided a colour matching service, enabling the kitchens to be matched precisely to the existing furniture and decor. - Fully Equipped Kitchenettes
Each unit featured a fridge with freezer compartment, combination microwave oven and grill, ceramic hob with built in 15 minute safety cut off timer, integrated extraction, matching wall cupboards and user-friendly layouts designed with students in mind - Inclusive, Accessible Designs
These DDA-compliant kitchens included tower units for fridges and ovens to ensure accessibility for all residents.
Bringing Designs to Life with 3D CAD
To help visualise and refine the outcome, we developed detailed 3D CAD renderings. These models provided our clients with a clear, realistic preview—allowing confident decision-making and alignment from design through to delivery.
Collaborative Approach
Elfin Kitchens have worked closely with Faulkner Brown Architects from 2022 and with Collins Construction from September 2023, ensuring every kitchen aligned precisely with the architectural intent and user needs. From initial concept to final delivery, the project was completed in just four months using our own logistics fleet, delivering reliability and efficiency.
