Contemporary Scandi-style open plan kitchen
This unique custom-designed open plan handleless kitchen comprises part of an existing 1930’s property which has had a large gabled extension added on to it, while part of the old building was demolished to accommodate the changes.
Our clients were keen to have a clean contemporary kitchen, but with something unusual and special about it. We created a monochrome scheme with gloss glass fronts on the island and base cabinetry. Pale sterling silver eucalyptus and vine tree bespoke veneers were used for the tall cabinetry, the built-in pantry larder with a sliding door and a breakfast cabinet with bi-fold doors.
It was also used for accents surrounding the glass door fronts, thus providing a sophisticated Scandinavian look to the room.
This unique design features a large floating L-shaped steel cantilever island and a floating L-shaped steel cantilever peninsula with mitred glass end panels. 20mm quartz worksurfaces by Quartzforms in Twinkle were used throughout. These included cut outs for the hob and also for the Kohler Icerock ice trough that sits behind the double sink within the kitchen island. Integrated handleless cooking and cooling appliances are all by Miele, with two Dishdrawer dishwashers by Fisher & Paykel.
