This project was a collaboration with Carmen Hansberry Designs. Designs created by Carmen, and renovation completed and managed by Lux Interiors.

Previously this kitchen was outdated and felt tired even with the abundance of natural light streaming through. The U-shaped layout included an up-stand, two sinks open shelving and staked ovens. The walk-in was simple with open shelving from floor to ceiling.

Carmen’s design opens up the space by removing the peninsula and creating an island bench with book-matched porcelain panels in Calcutta Macchia Vecchia. Our execution of these large format porcelain tiles required precision and patience to line them up to the millimeter and wrap around the bench perfectly. The cabinetry design was seamless and minimalist, with mitered joins, and vein-matched benchtop and splashback. The pantry became a mini butler’s pantry with an L-shaped benchtop for small appliances, open shelving overheads and a tall open shelf unit for all your storage needs.
