5mm locally fabricated stainless steel was selected for the benchtops, integrated double sink and the splash back behind the cooktop. The choice of a contemporary, monochrome colour palette is offset by the many windows and doors which provide so much natural light, and it’s also a neutral backdrop for the client’s artwork.

Plenty of storage options have been cleverly thought out and constructed to accommodate all the client’s kitchen items, appliances and treasures, mostly hidden behind a façade of handle-less cupboards – a nice clean, minimalist look for a busy part of the home. Even the heat pump is stylishly hidden beneath a uniquely crafted solid oak cover.

Adjacent to the kitchen is an enticing window seat, a perfect nook for enjoying the morning sun. Strategically positioned for that morning coffee sits one of the side tables, specifically designed and crafted for this project. More storage is available beneath the window seat. It’s always satisfying to salvage existing materials if we can, and on this project, we were able to re-purpose some Rimu timber for window and door frames, giving them a nice, light whitewash finish.
