This beautiful kitchen is located at the back of the dwelling’s new extension. Looking over the living and dining areas, with the backyard just below, the kitchen is truly the hub of the house.
The homeowners requested a sleek, modern kitchen design that would blend seamlessly into their 1930s abode.
This influences many of the design choices the team at Fresh Kitchen Solutions made, including the colour scheme and the materials and textures that appear throughout.
Horizontal and vertical lines were integrated as a tool to create a sense of balance in the space. The join lines between cabinetry run vertically through both deep and recessed overheads, down to the sets of drawers and freestanding cooker below. There is also the horizontal line of overheads that wrap the kitchen’s three walls.
The Blum AVENTOS HK system was chosen for the overheads to create a long horizontal look that complements the drawers below. A deep-tone timber-grain finish was chosen for the overheads to draw the eye through the kitchen. This is a stark contrast to the crisp white features throughout the room, as well as the stone benchtop that extends up the wall as a splashback.
This kitchen’s walk-in pantry is truly impressive. It is accessed through two cabinetry doors, which can be closed to hide the mess as needed. The pantry features the homeowners’ secondary cooking appliances, a sink and a dishwasher, and storage space for food that needs to be prepped for meals, which means the main kitchen can be kept clean and tidy at all times. All snack foods are kept in the storage solutions in the main kitchen, so the homeowners do not need to access the pantry other than to prepare meals.
A great deal of thought has been put into every zone in this modern kitchen design to ensure it will service the homeowners’ needs now and well into the future.
