Contemporary White Kitchen in Wentworth

Kitchen Connection of Ascot (KCA)

When Frank and Pam decided to redesign the kitchen at their home in Virginia Water, they wanted to create a social, open plan space that would take full advantage of the breath-taking views over their spectacular gardens. KCA designed Frank and Pam’s original kitchen 15 years ago using classic style furniture and as part of their property refurbishment, they returned to KCA for a contemporary kitchen design to suit their new style. The brief was to create a bright, minimal and contemporary space, flooded with light and making the most of the views from the surrounding gardens, that could be enjoyed by the whole family. In contrast to the original kitchen, Frank and Pam requested all white furniture with a contemporary look. As Frank and Pam prefer a minimal style of living, a full height corner storage solution was also included as part of the design, including four pull-out compartments to maximise storage. Another special design feature was added to the kitchen with a smoked mirror splash back, allowing the outside views to be enjoyed from all angles.

maison familale

Clémence Jeanjan Décoratrice d'intérieur

A la base de ce projet, des plans d'une maison contemporaine. Nos clients désiraient une ambiance chaleureuse, colorée aux volumes familiaux. Place à la visite ... Une fois la porte d'entrée passée, nous entrons dans une belle entrée habillée d'un magnifique papier peint bleu aux motifs dorés représentant la feuille du gingko. Au sol, un parquet chêne naturel filant sur l'ensemble de la pièce de vie. Allons découvrir cet espace de vie. Une grande pièce lumineuse nous ouvre les bras, elle est composée d'une partie salon, une partie salle à manger cuisine, séparée par un escalier architectural. Nos clients désiraient une cuisine familiale, pratique mais pure car elle est ouverte sur le reste de la pièce de vie. Nous avons opté pour un modèle blanc mat, avec de nombreux rangements toute hauteur, des armoires dissimulant l'ensemble des appareils de cuisine. Un très grand îlot central et une crédence miroir pour être toujours au contact de ses convives. Côté ambiance, nous avons créé une boîte colorée dans un ton terracotta rosé, en harmonie avec le carrelage de sol, très beau modèle esprit carreaux vieilli. La salle à manger se trouve dans le prolongement de la cuisine, une table en céramique noire entourée de chaises design en bois. Au sol nous retrouvons le parquet de l'entrée. L'escalier, pièce centrale de la pièce, mit en valeur par le papier peint gingko bleu intense. L'escalier a été réalisé sur mesure, mélange de métal et de bois naturel. Dans la continuité, nous trouvons le salon, lumineux grâce à ces belles ouvertures donnant sur le jardin. Cet espace se devait d'être épuré et pratique pour cette famille de 4 personnes. Nous avons dessiné un meuble sur mesure toute hauteur permettant d'y placer la télévision, l'espace bar, et de nombreux rangements. Une finition laque mate dans un bleu profond reprenant les codes de l'entrée. Restons au rez-de-chaussée, je vous emmène dans la suite parentale, baignée de lumière naturelle, le sol est le même que le reste des pièces. La chambre se voulait comme une suite d'hôtel, nous avons alors repris ces codes : un papier peint panoramique en tête de lit, de beaux luminaires, un espace bureau, deux fauteuils et un linge de lit neutre. Entre la chambre et la salle de bains, nous avons aménagé un grand dressing sur mesure, rehaussé par une couleur chaude et dynamique appliquée sur l'ensemble des murs et du plafond. La salle de bains, espace zen, doux. Composée d'une belle douche colorée, d'un meuble vasque digne d'un hôtel, et d'une magnifique baignoire îlot, permettant de bons moments de détente. Dernière pièce du rez-de-chaussée, la chambre d'amis et sa salle d'eau. Nous avons créé une ambiance douce, fraiche et lumineuse. Un grand papier peint panoramique en tête de lit et le reste des murs peints dans un vert d'eau, le tout habillé par quelques touches de rotin. La salle d'eau se voulait en harmonie, un carrelage imitation parquet foncé, et des murs clairs pour cette pièce aveugle. Suivez-moi à l'étage... Une première chambre à l'ambiance colorée inspirée des blocs de construction Lego. Nous avons joué sur des formes géométriques pour créer des espaces et apporter du dynamisme. Ici aussi, un dressing sur mesure a été créé. La deuxième chambre, est plus douce mais aussi traitée en Color zoning avec une tête de lit toute en rondeurs. Les deux salles d'eau ont été traitées avec du grès cérame imitation terrazzo, un modèle bleu pour la première et orangé pour la deuxième.

Billy The Kid

Elementi Cucina

For many years our Creative Director had been dreaming of creating a unique, bespoke and uber cool street art kitchen. It quickly became apparent that the universe had aligned and the perfect opportunity to make her dream become a reality was right in front of her, she found herself surrounded by the most incredible, extensive and amazing street art collection. A cheeky grin appeared on Katies face and she knew exactly what was coming next. Billy the Kid...the much talked about, completely incognito, up and coming street artist, with comparisons to Banksy, was immediately hunted down on Instagram and together via his agents (Walton Fine Arts), in top secret fashion to keep his unknown identity a secret, they collaborated on fusing his bold, bright, personalized and original street art with the luxury Italian kitchen brand Pedini. The kitchen showcases a beautiful sultry, dark metallic door for depth and texture. Gaggenau Vario refrigeration and cooking appliances and a Quooker tap system in the stunning patinated brass finish. The island really was the focal point and practically gave the clients a central beautiful working space, Gold Mammorea quartz worktop with its beautiful veining encases the island worktop and sides then the absolutely stunning Fiore Dibosco marble table that is beautifully lit with hidden led channels, wraps the island corner with its gravity defying angled end panels. The unique and individual commissioned Billy the Kid art installation on the back of the island creates total wow factor, the artwork included very personal touches...the family’s names, the dog gets a mention too and positive words that sum up the love this family so evidently share. Even the 3 cherubs Billy created look uncannily like the client’s 3 children, a wonderful touch. This kitchen is a truly unique and stunningly original installation, we love that Billy the Kid jumped on board with the concept presented to him.

Crisp & Clean White Kitchen in NYC

Bilotta Kitchen & Home

This clean, contemporary, white kitchen, in a New York City penthouse, was designed by Bilotta's Goran Savic and Regina Bilotta in collaboration with Jennifer Post of Jennifer Post Design. The cabinetry is Bilotta’s contemporary line, Artcraft. A flat panel door in a high-gloss white lacquer finish, the base cabinet hardware is a channel system while the tall cabinets have long brushed stainless pulls. All of the appliances are Miele, either concealed behind white lacquer panels or featured in their “Brilliant White” finish to keep the clean, integrated design. On the island, the Gaggenau cooktop sits flush with the crisp white Corian countertop; on the parallel wall the sink is integrated right into the Corian top. The mirrored backsplash gives the illusion of a more spacious kitchen – after all, large, eat-in kitchens are at a premium in Manhattan apartments! At the same time it offers view of the cityscape on the opposite side of the apartment.

We really enjoyed working with Gower Capital Ltd. on this project, who turned this very tired Georgian terraced house into 3 gorgeous flats. The Second Floor Flat - a Pearl Grey Satin Lacquer L-shape Kitchen with open shelves, beautiful CRL Verona worktop & a Smoked Mirror splashback.

Our client wanted the “wow” factor!! She wanted a kitchen with clean lines and a bespoke island to be the focal point of the space but simple enough that she could add her own artistic stamp. Our client, being an interior designer, had a keen eye for style and design, and we decided to “go for it!” and give her a design that nobody else would. We like to ask our clients “how brave they are” as we find that our designs are very distinctive when we are allowed freedom to use our imagination. We proposed merging the existing kitchen, utility, w/c and dining space to create an open plan kitchen, dining and living snug. Although opening up this space, it was still quite a tight area for the requested island. We therefore designed an island to be formed with full open boxes at low level to carry the island and allow light to flow to the other side of the kitchen and prevent a claustrophobic feel. The low level open boxes were going to require some strength to hold the Dekton topped upper half of the island and we also needed to run electrics to the hob, lighting and power points. We formed these boxes from the same panelling as the rest of the kitchen and had to fabricate steel strengthening straps that would be hidden within the structure alongside the electrical supply. Overall this open plan kitchen and living space with matching cabinetry in the snug is a stylish transformation. Though not a very large space and with the dark cabinetry, the smoked glass splash back, the light countertops and open boxes give this kitchen a light and free feeling.

Kitchen with Solid Surface Benchtops and Mirror Splashback 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 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!
