Worktop

The couple has had excellent experiences with ceramic worktops, known for their remarkable durability. They've settled on Khalo Dekton, a choice that offers a pleasant contrast to the dark components due to its subtle variation in light colour.

"When you choose a glossy worktop like this, it may require a bit more thorough cleaning. But wow, it looks good too!"

Set the standard with interior veneer

The couple has made a distinctive choice to veneer all of their cabinets internally with Harmony Dark.

This internal veneer is a premium detail that imparts a sense of luxury when you open the drawers and cabinets. While the standard white interior is suitable for lighter kitchens, the interior veneer becomes a key detail that elevates the overall aesthetic when working with wooden doors.

In pursuit of a unified appearance, the quality-conscious couple has selected the same wood veneer for the plinths and as a divider between the cabinets.

Stay organized with a Moodboard

"The concept of a work triangle in a kitchen? Personally, we don't believe it should completely dictate how we approach kitchen design."

Extra wide kitchen island

At the heart of the kitchen, a generous 150 cm-wide island takes the spotlight. Featuring a sink and hob set up in direct opposition, the arrangement, although deviating from the traditional work triangle concept, has earned the approval of the couple. Vertical posts integrated with the veneered plinth lend an added touch of sophistication to the island's design, fostering a seamless and unified aesthetic.

Pantry room

Upon encountering the captivating door frame, the couple recognized the potential to fashion a distinctive pantry space by integrating a meter of the kitchen. By eliminating the door, they created a direct passage to kitchen utensils and a captivating view of a green-tiled wall.

Dining area

Next to the kitchen, there exists a lovely and well-lit bay window that currently serves as the dining space for the couple. The intention is to eventually establish a pathway from the bay window to a conservatory. The pendant lamp above the kitchen island was personally crafted by the couple using repurposed architect lamps.

Stylish drawer design

The couple has chosen to furnish one side of the kitchen island with 100 cm wide anthracite gray Legra drawers.

In some drawers, the couple has opted for internal trays where they can store cutlery and dishes, while other drawers can accommodate taller items.

"As we settle into the kitchen, we figure out where it's smart to keep different things. It's not something we planned in advance, and we're still rearranging," they say.

As accessories for the Legra drawer system, there are a range of flexible frames and inserts available to help organize the drawers.

Maximize the use of space

The couple has crafted their kitchen layout around a spacious island that runs perpendicular to the refrigerator and freezer. An ingenious solution has been employed to tackle the challenge posed by a door that cannot fully open, achieved through the integration of a cabinet featuring LeMans pull-out shelves.

The LeMans pull-out system consists of two shelves that gracefully "swing" out from the cabinet when pulled, offering a clear and comprehensive view of the stored items. This inventive design not only provides easy access but also effectively utilizes space that would otherwise remain hard to reach.

While this solution is conventionally used to optimize corner spaces, the couple recognized the innovative potential of the LeMans pull-out, applying it in a fresh and novel context.

Inspiring details

Vertical lines between the cabinets

As an extra touch, there are vertical posts between each drawer cabinet on the kitchen island. It is an exclusive detail that creates a sleek expression.

Quooker

The couple has opted for a Quooker Fusion Round in a burnished brass finish. This selection allows them to conveniently access cold, hot, and boiling water, alongside chilled water with or without carbonation, all effortlessly dispensed from a single tap.

Bridging solution

The kitchen island boasts an exclusive bridging design, where the worktop extends down as a side panel, creating a solid block. The couple has chosen to keep the visible plinth to enhance the look.

2: Engage with a kitchen expert for fresh ideas and solutions that might not have crossed your mind.

3: Tailor your kitchen plans to your specific needs and avoid getting confined by conventional practices, trends, or external advice. Your kitchen should reflect your preferences.

4: Conduct thorough research to explore the multitude of exquisite materials and options available. Invest time to discover the ideal elements for your project.
