Mt Victoria Kitchen

Modern, sophisticated and lively were the key deliverables for this city suburb townhouse. The overall scope involved an upgrade to the open plan kitchen, dining and living areas including flooring, wall colour, curtains and kitchen joinery. Modernising the space through new colours and materials was the focus, without having to extensively rearrange the layout.

We worked with our clients and Nigel Lane Cabinetry to achieve a refreshing, well-functioning and lighter space. The well balanced combination of timbers, light marble tones and splashes of colour and pattern, such as the soft blue, hexagonal splashback, bring a delicate energy to the top floor.

Overhead open storage. These open shelves offered more accessible storage from the dining side of the room and at the same time were great opportunity to add in an extra area for display to further improve the view onlooking the kitchen.

The new kitchen design included tweaking small areas of cabinetry and maximising the available space, whilst also incorporating design features that didn’t compromise any of these functional gains. Even with a sloping ceiling and staying within the existing footprint, the new kitchen looks fresh, the space is more streamlined and is easier to use.

These cost saving timber-look laminate shelf details offer the same warming effect as real timber and allowed spend on other aspects of the joinery like high functioning and space-saving hardware. The shelf material continues under overhead cupboards to visually connect the joinery elements.

Corners can be back-breaking space wasters in a kitchen. This particular kitchen has a number of corners and features a variety of ways to make sure storage space wasn’t lost in these areas. Using speciality corner fittings that rotate and extend to improve the access to the deep corner spaces was a must-have solution for this one.
