Vivo Kitchens
Matt handleless modern — designed and installed across Tameside and Greater Manchester, and made to measure for your home.
Matt handleless modern
Vivo takes everything people love about a clean, handleless kitchen and swaps gloss for a soft, contemporary matt finish. The effect is calm and tactile rather than shiny and reflective — a modern kitchen that feels grounded and grown-up.
Matt surfaces have become the defining look of the contemporary kitchen, and it is easy to see why. They read as understated and sophisticated, they hide fingerprints far better than gloss, and they pair beautifully with natural stone worktops and warm timber accents. Vivo's handleless design keeps the surfaces uninterrupted, so the eye travels smoothly across the room. Popular schemes combine a soft grey, muted green or deep navy matt with a woodgrain island or open shelving, balancing cool and warm in a way that feels effortless. As with all our handleless ranges, integrated lighting is planned in to lift the finish after dark.
What makes the Vivo special
Vivo is for homeowners who want something modern but soft — a kitchen that feels serene rather than showy. It works especially well in open-plan spaces and in homes furnished in a calm, contemporary style.

Worktops, handles & finishing touches
The Vivo is only the starting point. Every kitchen we fit is tailored with your choice of worktop — from hard-wearing laminate to premium quartz, granite, porcelain and solid timber — chosen to suit both your look and your budget.
From there we help you coordinate handles, taps, sinks, splashbacks, lighting and appliances into one cohesive design. Our planners think about the details that make a kitchen a pleasure to use every day: deep pan drawers, clever corner storage, larders, bins and recycling, and task lighting exactly where you need it.

Vivo kitchens — frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Vivo and Lucente?
Both are handleless. Lucente is high-gloss and light-reflecting; Vivo is soft matt and understated. It comes down to whether you prefer a shiny, glamorous look or a calm, tactile one.
Does matt scratch more easily than gloss?
No — modern matt laminates and painted matt finishes are hard-wearing and, if anything, tend to disguise everyday marks better than gloss.
Can I mix matt and woodgrain?
Yes, and we would encourage it. A matt perimeter with a woodgrain island is one of the most popular Vivo schemes.
Is Vivo suitable for a small kitchen?
Definitely. The handleless, uncluttered look keeps small rooms feeling calm and spacious, and clever storage makes every centimetre count.
