1970s 

The 'dream kitchen' was an idea slightly ironically explored by David in The Kitchen Book (1977) by Terence Conran. Inspired, Johnny took on the challenge of turning this imaginary ‘dream kitchen’ into a reality in his aunt’s Chelsea house. She had already made her views on the trend for fitted kitchens known in strong language. The project Johnny and she worked on ended up being a cross between a traditional French farmhouse kitchen, a writer’s study and an artist’s studio.
