Kitchen with Concrete Benchtops Design Ideas
Annie Bowen Design
Ease of entertaining was key for the owners, so maximising the home’s formal rooms, designing a kitchen for large-scale cooking and creating outdoor spaces to gather are much-loved additions.
Element Design Studio
A modern Australian design with finishes that change over time. Connecting the bushland to the home with colour and texture.
Dimension Building
With its gabled rectangular form and black iron cladding, this clever new build makes a striking statement yet complements its natural environment.
Internally, the house has been lined in chipboard with negative detailing. Polished concrete floors not only look stylish but absorb the sunlight that floods in, keeping the north-facing home warm.
The bathroom also features chipboard and two windows to capture the outlook. One of these is positioned at the end of the shower to bring the rural views inside.
Floor-to-ceiling dark tiles in the shower alcove make a stunning contrast to the wood. Made on-site, the concrete vanity benchtops match the imported bathtub and vanity bowls.
Doors from each of the four bedrooms open to their own exposed aggregate terrace, landscaped with plants and boulders.
Attached to the custom kitchen island is a lowered dining area, continuing the chipboard theme. The cabinets and benchtops match those in the bathrooms and contrast with the rest of the open-plan space.
A lot has been achieved in this home on a tight budget.

schemes & spaces
The existing kitchen was dated and did not offer sufficient and functional storage for a young family.
The colours and finishes specified created the contemporary / industrial feel the client was looking for and the earthy/ natural touches such as the timber shelves provide contrast and mirror the warmth of the flooring. Painting the back wall the same colour as the splash back and cabinetry, create a functional kitchen with a ‘wow’ factor.

Sustainable Kitchens
Blending the warmth and natural elements of Scandinavian design with Japanese minimalism.
With true craftsmanship, the wooden doors paired with a bespoke oak handle showcases simple, functional design, contrasting against the bold dark green crittal doors and raw concrete Caesarstone worktop.
The large double larder brings ample storage, essential for keeping the open-plan kitchen elegant and serene.

Linc Thelen Design
This couple purchased a second home as a respite from city living. Living primarily in downtown Chicago the couple desired a place to connect with nature. The home is located on 80 acres and is situated far back on a wooded lot with a pond, pool and a detached rec room. The home includes four bedrooms and one bunkroom along with five full baths.
The home was stripped down to the studs, a total gut. Linc modified the exterior and created a modern look by removing the balconies on the exterior, removing the roof overhang, adding vertical siding and painting the structure black. The garage was converted into a detached rec room and a new pool was added complete with outdoor shower, concrete pavers, ipe wood wall and a limestone surround.
