Shona & Jerry
Shona Ponder is the creative, right-brained expert behind Countryside Kitchens. As a talented and experienced interior designer, Shona is skilled at uncovering a client’s personality and translating this into ideas and inspirations for a bespoke kitchen.
At the Countryside Kitchens Kelso showroom, you can leaf through magazines and browse our displays with Shona to begin your discussions around the ideal look and feel for your hand made kitchen. Shona can then help you to arrive at a colour scheme and selections of materials and design features that best suit your kitchen space and most closely reflect your individuality.
Jerry Ponder is the technical, left-brained side of the partnership. With a background in civil engineering, Jerry has exactly the kind of methodical, logical mindset required to take Shona’s designs off the page and into your home.
Jerry established Countryside Kitchens after designing and installing the couple’s own kitchen. The experience was such a success that Jerry was keen to help others to realise their own vision for what is undoubtedly a very special room in the home. More than 30 years on, his vast experience in design, installation and project management makes Jerry an exceptionally safe pair of hands when it comes to creating beautiful bespoke kitchens.
