Undergoing a large renovation, the owners were able to completely transform this kitchen from a small, outdated space into a relaxed, open entertainment area
“The kitchen combines with an open-plan living and dining area, with bi-fold doors opening out onto a timber deck with a barbecue and outdoor dining table. To enhance the indoor/outdoor feel, contrasting textures create a welcoming, lively atmosphere. The earthy tones of the blackbutt timber floors, natural-look cabinets and pendant lighting balance with the sleek mirrored splashback and white gloss cabinets. The island benchtop makes the perfect area for the kids to sit and chat, and the ‘Kaivo’ Marimekko wallpaper panel adds a pop of energy while beautifully complementing the contrasting textures. The kitchen also features a separate scullery, ideal for hiding clutter when entertaining, as well as generous storage and a large pantry. Gorgeous design, efficient functionality and a warm, welcoming atmosphere all combine to make this kitchen the hub of the home.”
