THE RHATIGAN AND HICK
DIFFERENCE

-
We know that our clients appreciate a more thoughtful approach to kitchen design, and we hope you will welcome the exceptional care we put into every project. As an independent design company, we’re able to spend as long as it takes to get it right, listening to your needs, understanding your lifestyle and creating a kitchen or furniture that will truly elevate your home and enrich your family’s life. We’re not a mass manufacturer; we’re a place where ideas come to life through collaboration and creativity.

With a background in antique furniture, Ed has a deep respect and reverence for the traditional skills and timeless techniques in which he trained. He pays homage to this heritage in every design, channeling centuries of craftsmanship into new, fresh plans that are invigorated with rare materials, unique approaches and innovative applications. His experience in antique furniture equips him with a priceless understanding of what it takes to make designs last the test of time.

While the creativity at Rhatigan & Hick has always been a defining factor, it is the traditional skills and attention to detail that set us apart. Under Ed’s leadership, we are poised to continue building our legacy of unique, beautiful designs that will be enjoyed by generations. Over the last two decades, our team has grown to include talented designers, skilled producers, experienced fitters, and tireless relationship managers, all of whom work to serve our valued clients.

In the span of 20 years, we’ve crafted kitchens for every type of environment, from prestigious period homes to cosy country cottages. What unites every design is a need for it to function as well as it looks, to combine a beautiful aesthetic with a proven purpose. As a result, we spend a lot of time getting every detail right, from our unique hardwood frame design to our traditional butt hinges and 30mm thick cabinet doors. We add extra layers of luxury and enjoyment in pullout shelves, bottle racks and individual cutlery inserts. We design kitchens for your life, whatever that might look like.

Ed Rhatigan
Over 20 years ago, Ed Rhatigan turned his love of antique furniture restoration and fine furniture design into a business that has left a long-lasting impact on hundreds of households around the country. Alongside co-founder Gary Hick, Ed built an acclaimed kitchen design business that is now a favoured partner of the world’s top interior designers and architects.
No matter the size or scope of the project, Ed’s design philosophy remains the same: Design should be simple, but significant. He is inspired by old-school skills and modern materials alike, forging new paths for a fresh generation. Since taking the reins of Rhatigan & Hick, Ed has led the company into a new era that focuses on a perfect trinity of design, craftsmanship and quality.

Listen, Think, Deliver
We create beautiful, inspired kitchen spaces that reflect the personal aesthetic and lifestyle of our clients. Balancing design expectations with functional requirements while providing exceptional service, product and attention to detail.
What’s Inside the Cabinetry?
Rhatigan & Hick’s premium kitchens are built to last. We use solid wood on our cabinet internals, offering a choice of durable lacquered finishes. Wood lined drawers running on concealed soft close runners. Our cabinet doors are 30mm thick and hung to Rhatigan & Hick’s unique hardwood frame design with traditional butt hinges. All this yields cabinetry that is both impressive and build for the task.
Every Cabinet Serves a Function
We believe that kitchen cabinets should be as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside. We incorporate a host of utility features including larder units with pullout shelves and bottle racks to combined waste and recycling bins. Let Rhatigan & Hick lead you on the design, finish and functionality of your new kitchen.
