The geometric balance of this innovative kitchen design make it an understated feature in the large living area.
“The owners’ brief was for a kitchen that had an innovative, modern, clean look, but with tough durable workstations/zones. They wanted the kitchen to feature in the large living area, but not be overpowering. Their design has a simple blend of finishes such as two-pack painted doors, stainless-steel benchtop on the cooking zone, and stone island bench, all blended with geometric balance. The stainless-steel kickboards are illuminated with LED lights, and above the cooking zone the rangehood is encased in a stainless-steel shroud, creating a futuristic vibe. The kitchen is fitted with ServoDrive by Blum for effortless electric opening and closing systems. We overcame the high ceilings by using different cupboard finishes in the overheads, along with the shroud at a different depth. The geometric balance of horizontal lines and equal door sizes make for an understated and sleek space.”
