Glamour and elegance epitomised the architectural P&O style of the 1930s, so when it came to designing a kitchen for a home of the era, Anita Mitchell of Premier Kitchens didn’t need to look far for inspiration.
The owners wanted something more than the white Shaker-style, typical of their home’s beachy location, and happily embraced the sophisticated, nautical-based aesthetic proposed by Anita.
However, with the home’s existing kitchen in a hot, cramped corner of the home, a decision was made to adapt the floor plan and relocate to a cooler, more central zone. For a family of five, the change made for a much more usable space, enabling the inclusion of a long island bench for informal gathering.
With this reconfiguration on board, the addition of high-end appliances and ample storage — including an integrated fridge, pantry and appliance cabinet — introduced an inherent practicality to the space. But it’s the moody tones and opulent details that elevate this design to the realm of “breathtaking”.
Slim Shaker and V-groove profiled cabinetry melds with moody grey quartzite
and herringbone timber flooring to set the scene, while dramatic brass accents in the form of handles, sink mixer, oven knobs, pendant lights and countertop relief introduce an undeniable sheen of glamour.
One can only assume it’s a domain destined for refined conversation and lavish entertaining.
