The cabinets are a grey painted wood with custom routed pulls that triangulate to taper. The countertops in the space are a juxtaposition of concrete-effect dekton along with a 4” thick live-edge walnut slab.

Contemporary Matt Black with Timber Veneer

User

The concept for the Kitchen was Contemporary, sleek and minimalism with advanced materials to create a striking, modern look. The clients were looking for something dark with a matt finish, that didn’t require constant cleaning and maintenance. Polytecs newest innovation the ‘Venette’ Range, was the perfect choice with its fingerprint resistant technology. In order to introduce a third texture to the Kitchen in addition to the Matt Black cabinetry and textured Dekton, we implemented timber veneer. Overall this innovative Kitchen design offers dimension and interest while the diverse finishes make the space feel warm and appealing. This Kitchen design met all of the client’s requirements whilst successfully achieving a sleek, minimal and striking design.

Detail of the beautiful granite. This granite became the focal point of the remodel. There is much movement & color in this unique piece of stone. It set the tone of the rest of the kitchen remodel. Photo by Casey Lorz.

We removed the old ikea kitchen to bring the house into a more contemporary feel. Muted tones compliment each other while a door to the outdoor pool and larger window provide a connection.

Réunir deux appartements pour créer un duplex familial - Projet Pyramides

Mon Concept Habitation

Nos clients ont fait l’acquisition de deux biens sur deux étages, et nous ont confié ce projet pour créer un seul cocon chaleureux pour toute la famille. ?‍?‍?‍? Dans l’appartement du bas situé au premier étage, le défi était de créer un espace de vie convivial avec beaucoup de rangements. Nous avons donc agrandi l’entrée sur le palier, créé un escalier avec de nombreux rangements intégrés et un claustra en bois sur mesure servant de garde-corps. Pour prolonger l’espace familial à l’extérieur, une terrasse a également vu le jour. Le salon, entièrement ouvert, fait le lien entre cette terrasse et le reste du séjour. Ce dernier est composé d’un espace repas pouvant accueillir 8 personnes et d’une cuisine ouverte avec un grand plan de travail et de nombreux rangements. A l’étage, on retrouve les chambres ainsi qu’une belle salle de bain que nos clients souhaitaient lumineuse et complète avec douche, baignoire et toilettes. ✨

The Forest Way Renovation: The Three-Toned Kitchen

Mavella Home

We kept the majority of the existing cabinetry and painted it white, modified the existing island to make it larger and painted it black, and purchased custom white oak pantry cabinets by the fridge for much needed storage. We removed the upper cabinetry on one of the walls and replaced them with floating shelves to make the space feel more open. We added quartzite countertops with white subway tiles and balanced it out with brass pendants and hardware for contrast. We also added floating shelves to the area next to the kitchen to create a dedicated coffee bar station.

Versailles : superbe maison de ville de 300m2

Mon Concept Habitation

Une maison de ville comme on les aime : généreuse et conviviale. Elle étonne le visiteur par sa force de caractère, vite adoucie par quelques touches de pastel qui ponctuent l’espace. Le parquet a été entièrement restauré et certaines portions de type versaillais ont retrouvé leur éclat d’antan. Des rangements malins se logent ici et là tandis que le carrelage graphique des salles d’eau garantit un réveil revigorant.

Contemporary Kitchen with Cement Tiles Design Ideas

There’s a lot to consider when it comes to planning your kitchen design. Where do you even start? Gathering some inspiration in a photo gallery is always a good starting point, as looking at different kitchen designs often brings up ideas you haven’t even thought of yet.

Browse Photos of Kitchen Designs for Inspiration and Collect Your Ideas

You can browse through photos of all kinds of kitchen styles, layouts and sizes on Houzz to get started before jumping into any design software or contacting a local professional for help. Here’s a few considerations to keep in mind when planning your kitchen.

1. What Makes a Good Contemporary Kitchen Design, and Why is it Important?

For starters, you want to find a balance between aesthetics and function. You may have heard of the ‘kitchen work triangle’, which refers to the space between your fridge, sink and stove. You want everything within easy reach when you’re working in the kitchen and look beautiful at the same time. It’s a good idea to take note of both when browsing our photo gallery.

2. Consider Your Space to Determine Your Kitchen Layout

Firstly, consider the space you have, and the limitations that come with it. Do you have a small kitchen and need to maximise your workspace and storage? Can you allow yourself some more space and a big island with seating? Are you designing your kitchen from scratch or renovating an existing design? Which appliances do you already own and what are their measurements? Are there windows you need to take into consideration when planning cabinets? How do kitchen, living and dining areas connect? Depending on your space and needs, you want to use a shape that suits you. U, G, or L-shaped kitchen, with or without island or peninsula? Know your dimensions, plan cabinetry carefully and consider the placement of your appliances. You don’t want to end up with a finished design, only for your significant other to question where the fridge is supposed to go. Consider from the start where your fridge, oven, microwave and sink goes to save yourself from starting again from scratch - remember the kitchen work triangle! You also want to plan the layout of your cabinets. Maybe you’re planning for a pantry and can do with less storage space in your kitchen, so that your design can be one without upper or lower cabinets for a different look. A corner cabinet can be a smart storage solution if you want to keep the look clean and simple.

3. Decide on a Kitchen Style, But Don’t Forget Practicality

You want the style of your kitchen to reflect your personality and taste. We have curated a large array of kitchen styles here at Houzz, from traditional to contemporary to transitional and everything in between. Consider what your cooking style is for a start - Italy is known for its cuisine, so italian kitchen designs are generally popular. Also consider ergonomics - depending on how much time you spend in your kitchen, the height of your counters can make a big difference to your overall health. You also want to consider colour and finishes of cabinets, countertops and splashbacks. Which colour do you want your cupboards to be? Simple, timeless white or rather making a statement in black? Maybe rather a rustic wood? Also consider the colour of your floor - if you have dark floors, you may want to keep cabinets lighter. You could also go for an all-white look and choose black appliances for contrast. Once you know which style you fancy, don’t forget how you will be using the space. You want to keep cooking in mind, as well as how easy to clean and maintain the space will be. How many cooks do you need to accommodate? Do you have kids around? How much storage do you need? Maybe you want to go for open shelves rather than cabinets and allow for easy reach of key items you use when cooking. Again - remember the triangle! Lastly, choose lighting that both enhances the look of your kitchen as well as your cooking performance, providing light in all the right places.

4. Be Conscious of Your Budget

No matter what you plan for your kitchen design, cost is always a big factor. Be sure to plan with your budget in mind. It may make more sense to go for a modular kitchen design rather than custom build. You can save a lot of money if you get at least 3 estimates from professionals before locking in the job. And don’t forget to allow a 20% buffer for emergencies. Once you are ready to hire a pro, our directory will help you find one, no matter where you are. So whether you're looking for an Interior Designer in Melbourne or an Architect in Sydney, you can be sure to find a qualified expert for the job!
