LUSTROUS BLACK

“The owners came to us with a clear idea of what they wanted to achieve with their new kitchen. The result is a very modern design that forms part of their refurbished and extended period home. The white-on-white finishes create a stark contrast with the feature wall [cupboard doors] of black-stained timber veneer doors. These cupboards conceal the integrated refrigerator, pantry and small appliances. Slimline black handles add to the kitchen’s refined sense of detail.

A stepped ceiling defines the cooking zone and folds down to form a bank of white gloss cupboards, which conceal the Qasair rangehood. Drawers and cupboards below the benchtops have recessed rails and are paired with the undermount sink and induction cooktop to accentuate the flush-line look. This simplicity of detail accentuates the beauty of the Carrara marble splashback, which was sourced by the owner. This kitchen is now a thoroughly modern entertainer.”

"We love the simplicity and beauty of the stained-timber veneer wall of cupboards".
