Danish-American couple Catherine and Toke Nygaard moved from California to a Victorian townhouse in East London. Their remodel, by Mike Tuck Studio, includes the ultimate Scandi-meets-Brit kitchen made up of Plain English cabinetry, Dinesen flooring, modern British craft furniture, and an unexpected color palette (pink and green). The look as a whole works so well, it’s infectious: All of us at Remodelista are taking note. Here’s a list of the kitchen’s key elements, right down to every light fixture (there are many) and accessory.
Above: The Quooker Fusion Round Mixer Tap is a combination boiling water and mixer tap. Contact Quooker for ordering information. For more, see our post Remodeling 101: The Verdict on Hot Water Taps. Above: “Initially we wanted a hot water tap, which we got,” says Toke. “However, we realized you can’t really reach far with it and needed a more flexible one to clean the sink, hence the more industrial one.” It’s the Abode Stalto Professional Kitchen Tap for £403.84 on Amazon in the UK.
Above: The canister lights among the Douglas fir support beams are Osca LED Round Matt White Lights from Astro Lighting. Above: The Niche Pinch Prisma Pendant Light is $695 at Niche. Above: Flanking the ventilation hood above the kitchen counter are two Navire Jib Sconce lights in powder-coated black from Atelier de Troupe; $650 each.

Above: A row of brass Workstead Orbit Sconces, $985 each, run the length of the kitchen/dining room.
