deVOL is much more than a kitchen company. Paul O’Leary, deVOL’s founder, began his journey in a small workshop in Leicestershire, England, more than thirty years ago. Since that day, deVOL has grown into something special, inspiring many people with its unique approach to designing and styling the most important room in the home.

Written by deVOL’s directors, Paul O’Leary, Robin McLellan and Helen Parker, The deVOL Kitchen is about far more than kitchens. It has stories about their personal journeys, and it is full of passion, determination, and sometimes a little luck. Alongside the inspiring photographs of kitchens they’ve designed and furnished, The deVOL Kitchen reveals childhood memories and fascinating experiences that have undoubtedly shaped their unique approach to designing, making, and running deVOL.

From total rebuilds to a more modest sink and cupboard upgrade, The deVOL Kitchen will inspire you to design and style the space available to create a unique and stylish kitchen, whatever your budget. It encourages you to throw out the conventional rule book, draw your own plans, and incorporate fitted and existing free-standing furniture and found objects to create a beautiful room that is perfect for your needs.

The book’s charming photography takes you on a journey, not only of gorgeous kitchens but also into the workshops, studios, and showrooms of deVOL. See craftspeople at work, close-up images of forging metal and throwing clay and how these skills are used to make all of deVOL’s accessories, many of which are as desired as their kitchens.
