I love clean lines, granite and stainless steel but conversely, one of my favourite kitchens is a retro, fun, stylish affair.

The kitchen in Don and Megan’s 1960s Park Avenue apartment in Mad Men is a Mid Century Modern masterpiece. Rich blue and vibrant orange cabinet doors vie for attention, zinging out from their dark walnut borders, complimented by an unusual brown Frigidaire. At a time when open plan became all the rage, a kitchen on full view meant it needed to look damn good as well as be practical.
