For decades, Shaker-style fronts have been an essential part of the kitchen landscape. Their distinct curves and prominent lines give the kitchen structure and make a statement. The variety and versatility of this type of front are the clincher here.
Shaker-style fronts – Stylish design
If the broader term ‘country kitchen’ comes up when looking for a kitchen or chatting with friends, most will immediately think of classic designs: heavy fronts made of oak, a rustic style and glazed wall units or more modern versions with open shelving and a Mediterranean touch.
This perennial product now impresses with its versatility and multiple applications ranging from Mediterranean and modern country styles to ultra-modern handleless designs.
However, the defining feature linking the two is the Shaker-style front. This is not so much one feature among many but the highlight – without the frame, there’d be no country style. Created when the heavy, captivating country-style kitchens of the 70s and 80s were developed, the Shaker-style front has continued to evolve, meaning that a range of them are still an essential, integral part of Schüller’s portfolio today. We have continued to work on them, elaborating on the original country style.
Colour variety through Colour Concept
Thanks to Schüller’s extensive colour concept with 28 lacquer colours, the scope for creativity is virtually boundless. All the more so as three different types of lacquer – satin, matt velvet and satin with pore effect – bring the individual Shaker-style fronts to the fore.
Shaker-style fronts as country kitchens
An everlasting partnership
That’s the appeal of the CAMEO SATIN in linear seashell white – a classic yet modern country kitchen. The delicate, two-tiered frame of the Cameo front drops away to harmonise with the sleek black handles – an unbeatable team. Two lightly milled slots at the top and bottom ends of the frame accentuate it further and are subtle details that make a difference to this front.
Typical country house style in shell white - the stylish CAMEO SATIN shows typical features of a country house kitchen.
Also in sand grey with elegant knobs, the CAMEO SATIN subtly sweeping lines are a delight to look at. The oiled walnut worktop emphasises the country character of the front. Classic elements with a new twist.
Such subtle shades and contrasting dark handles especially emphasise the modern country style that this satin front stands for. Earthy tones are on trend – they are easy on the eye and open up the room.
For those who wish to capture the warmth and special flair of the Mediterranean in their home, this is the perfect choice. On these fronts, the subtle grain and the pore effect, which is pleasing to the touch, create a feeling of homeliness, while the attractive brass handles complete the look nicely. A white worktop and decorative details create the perfect interplay with the bold deep blue fronts. The name says it all: the FINCA SATIN kitchen enables you to transform your home into your number one holiday destination. It shows how modern Shaker-style fronts and country kitchens can also be vibrant and captivating without losing the inherent cosiness of the style.
Modern country style: the fine pore effect and deep blue colour of the Shaker-style fronts set special accents – open unit and shelf elements add the perfect finishing touch.

Shaker-style fronts for modern kitchens
Multi-faceted – Shaker-style fronts are impressive in a wide range of settings
Even when separated from country style designs, Shaker-style fronts still look great – a glance at the elegant kitchen front NEWPORT SATIN confirms this. This handleless, muted forest green kitchen invites you to stay awhile and cook in company.
Thanks to its practical grip ledge profiles, the consistent ensemble of frames calms the senses, while deliberately-placed lighting creates an interplay with the darker colour of the front. Subtle grip ledge profiles give Shaker-style fronts a sleeker look – a trick that brings out the versatile nature of this kitchen feature.
The graceful class of handless fronts with uniform lines deliberately interrupted by frames – a design feature that takes this kitchen to the next level.
Hugging the whole length of the wall, the full expressiveness of the Shaker-style front is brought to the fore while its uniform pattern has a hypnotic effect on the observer. Captivatingly elegant in grey. Modern grey tones and Shaker-style fronts are an unbeatable combination, and in handleless models with Tip-On the frames reveal their full effect. This combination with the matt CLASSIC MATT front is also impressive in other neutral shades like white or brown/white.
Shaker-style fronts have gone beyond the simple realms of country style – their distinctive lines and uniform frames also add style to modern kitchens. This is demonstrated by the different versions of the Shaker-style front offered by Schüller and the wide range of combinations. It’s no wonder that this perennial style is still so well-received today.
