PWS, suppliers of Second Nature kitchens have spent two years working on a new upmarket, contemporary kitchen brand, called Metris, with distinctive curved elements. The 1200mm curved corner system allows the creation of three distinctive schemes; the wave island, the fitted curve and the peninsular curve ... and the system was deemed original enough to merit the design status ... meaning that other kitchen companies copy it at their peril (PWS have been to court to protect their designs before). A teardrop table has also been developed

The new kitchens will be available from selected retailers only - with high quality showrooms - a way for PWS to support independent retailers. Their Second Nature brand also has some protected designs ... and I have written about some of their kitchens before ... but the Second Nature brand has become quite widely available, at low prices, from internet suppliers. The Metris will be more exclusive. You can download a brochure from the Metris website and also find retailers - although there aren't many of them as yet.
