Meet the team. Built on experience.

From one small showroom in the 1990s to a trusted name across Cumbria, Atlantis has always been about people. The families we design for, and the team that brings each kitchen to life.

We’re proud to be family-run, with an in-house team of designers, fitters, joiners and project managers who take real pride in their work. Many of us have been part of the Atlantis story for years, bringing experience, creativity and a down-to-earth approach to everything we do.

When you choose Atlantis, you’re working with a team that cares. About your home, your time and getting every detail right.

Kitchen design team

Your design is at the heart of your project, and we dedicate the time it deserves. After visiting your home to survey the space and discuss your ideas, we move through each stage with care: concept development, computer-aided presentations, product specifications, pricing, and more.

The level of preparation, communication, and attention to detail we put into your unique proposal is what helps us turn your vision into your dream kitchen.
