We’re Featured on Wales’ Home of the Year
18 Dec 2024
Believe it or not, the kitchen industry is at the forefront of style and design, drawing inspiration from icons like Nancy Meyers. Far from solely providing functional spaces, kitchens represent their owners’ tastes and lifestyles. They make statements – as was perfectly illustrated last month when a stunning Sigma 3 Kitchen took centre stage on Wales’ Home of the Year on iPlayer.
On the show, the judges, Glen Thomas, Mandy Watkins and Owain Wyn Evans visited Paul Donovan in Monmouthshire. Paul was a Sigma 3 Kitchens customer who got his luxury handleless kitchen designed in the Abergavenny branch of Sigma 3 Kitchens.

“I like to sit here in the morning, have my breakfast and look out the window,” Paul said on the show, explaining how the kitchen provided him with a breakfast sanctuary. He noted how the layout of the island allowed him a moment’s peace to watch wildlife in his garden, drink in hand.
“Somebody’s put a lot of care and attention into this fabulous space,” architect-judge Glen Thomas noted on the show. Then, motioning to our H-Line Sutton larders with Metalix Bronze handlerails, he added, “It’s really well planned, and I love it when you have a bank of tall units.”

Later, using the Moonlight Blue facades as a backdrop, his co-presenter Owain Wyn Evans offered his own praise: “The kitchen is just wow times 1,000! It’s so light and bright, and the kind of luminous energy that exists in that space is just wonderful.”
Being a Sigma 3 kitchen, of course, the beauty was more than skin deep. Sporting high-quality, Tuscan Walnut internals to matched Paul’s exquisite dining table, the range made the design truly cohesive. Plus, its integrated VelaBins allowed for undisrupted floorspace – ideal for entertaining.
"I had a lot of fun creating this kitchen. Blending Highland Stone with Moonlight Blue and a sprinkling of features from the Sigma 3 Signature Collection, it offered a tonne of scope for creativity, Not only that, it’s been accessorised to perfection and pops against the natural backdrop just outside its wide windows."

“It really pleases me when I see a homeowner has adopted a contemporary approach to developing a period home,” Glen Thomas said as a parting note. And his co-hosts agreed.
At Sigma 3 Kitchens, we’re honoured to be featured on the show. It truly is a team effort. Indeed, without our talented designers, world-beating logistics team and a whole army of support staff, none of our kitchens would ever bask in the golden key lights of a TV production crew.
