Kitchen Design

In August 1980 the UK Sunday Times wrote a story entitled "why this awful fixation with fitted Kitchens" which featured Grey. In 1987 Grey's concept of the "Unfitted Kitchen" was licensed to Smallbone of Devizes, an English kitchen company. Grey was selected as one of the UK’s most influential designers of the 20th century by UK House and Garden magazine in 2000 having been featured editorially twenty years in a row. He has also been voted the kitchen designer’s kitchen designer by Homes and Gardens magazine as well as having over two hundred articles written about him in the press. He has been called the"World’s best kitchen designer" by the New York Times and Metropolitan Home magazine, as well as being chosen as one off America’s top one hundred designers.

Famous quotes containing the words kitchen and/or design:

    And you’re too fired up to go to sleep, you sit at the kitchen table. It’s really late, it’s really quiet, you’re tired. Don’t wanna go to bed, though. Going to bed means this was the day. This Feb. 12, this Aug. 3, this Nov. 20 is over and you’re tired and you made some money but it didn’t happen, nothing happened. You got through it and a whole day of your life is over. And all it is—is time to go to bed.
    Claudia Shear, U.S. author. New York Times, p. A21 (September 29, 1993)

    The reason American cars don’t sell anymore is that they have forgotten how to design the American Dream. What does it matter if you buy a car today or six months from now, because cars are not beautiful. That’s why the American auto industry is in trouble: no design, no desire.
    Karl Lagerfeld (b. 1938)
