The owners of this beautiful Georgian property have been renovating for over two years with one distinct aim: to transform their house from boring bricks and mortar into an entirely original home. They wanted a kitchen that was sleek and stylish, but entirely open to put their own personal stamp on. All the units are hand-crafted from Quebec Yellow Timber and painted in Farrow & Ball ‘White’ to create a crisp, clean canvas for this modern couple. Warm English Oak worktops inject a sense of cheer and avoid the clinical feel that can accompany white installations. This minimal kitchen is finished with chrome knobs with square backplates and Scopwick Mouldings, for extra oomph. Special features include a floor-to-ceiling wine rack, a concealed cutlery block and a Tepan Yaki hot plate deftly hidden under a chopping board to maximize space and functionality for this couple of keen cooks.

Eleven foot ceilings add volume to this compact kitchen. Frosted sliding door cabinets aid in utilizing all available space while adding a nice display element. European hood keeps things open but dramatic. White quartz counters flow seamlessly with a mobile dining/work table.

The terrace area gives the a wonderful spring/summer extra lounge area. The large crittall doors open out connecting all areas. The BBQ was built into the space by the contractor and features a storage area for external pillows.
