The original kitchen layout was redesigned to be more in keeping with the bold architectural style. The kitchen island was angled to provide the best water views and visual interest. Integrated fridges create a seamless built-in furniture look. To reduce glare off of the water, the selected splashback material is a slab sized porcelain tile (3000 x 1000 x 3mm) in a matt metallic finish. It is an impressive look and very easy to clean.
Continuing the furniture look, a sliding bi-bold door appliance cupboard was designed to extend the overall bench surface and double as a drinks area and secondary pantry. It was designed to look stylish whether the doors are open or closed. The combined leather and timber grain laminate door finishes are tactile and organic, low maintenance and family friendly.
The BBQ kitchen is an extension of the main kitchen. Highlighting the elongated elegance is the bench / shelf which cantilevers across the full height window. The custom dining table is the finishing touch that visually connects this integrated space. Feature lighting defines and highlights the subtle detailing adding another spatial dimension.

- bespoke stone dining table (at bench height) to connect the kitchen, BBQ and dining space
