Coastal Curves

Embarking on the journey of constructing their dream residence, selecting the perfect aesthetic for their new family home and kitchen was instrumental in their decision-making. Inspired by the ambiance of Bondi coastal homes, they envisioned a fusion of coastal charm and natural timber elements. The centrepiece of their vision materialised in the form of a gracefully curved island and benchtop. Complementing this, bespoke panelling echoed the design motif seen throughout the bathrooms, while kit-kat tiles seamlessly integrated the entire aesthetic. Transitioning to the scullery, the open shelves in a timber finish, maintained equilibrium and imbued the space with warmth.

Given the interconnected nature of the kitchen with the dining, lounge, and outdoor entertaining areas, achieving a harmonious ambiance was of utmost importance. The deliberate placement of the fridge within the scullery ensured uninterrupted bench space in the kitchen, enhancing both functionality and visual appeal. Dual sinks, in both the scullery and kitchen, facilitated seamless workflow, with the primary cooking zone situated in the latter.  Bench heights were adjusted for comfort, accommodating the clients' stature.
