Under Construction | Modern Mid Century Townhouse
KITCHEN UNDER CONSTRUCTION:
The modern approach to the new kitchen design subtly integrates mid-century inspired details. Finishes such as walnut veneer, reeded glass, grey smoked mirror, timber framed elements, smoky grey glass wall lights and Serge Mouille feature wall lighting have been incorporated. Subsequently, the design is a modern take on mid-century. The mirror splashback reflects the natural light and creates the illusion of a larger space, whilst the track lighting and task lighting provide flexibility between the kitchen work and entertaining zones.
FUNCTIONALITY:
The kitchen layout was designed to be more user-friendly with all of the awkward corner cabinets removed and better storage solutions incorporated including Blum fixtures with tip-on blumotion for effortless opening of drawers and cupboards. The new layout was designed with functionality in mind for entertaining - the original high section of the island bench removed which previously created a visual barrier between the dining area and kitchen. Depth was added to the island bench to allow for additional storage, accessible from the dining room side. The kitchen sink was moved closer to the window which frees up space on the island bench where the client can now be preparing in the kitchen while chatting to guests as they mingle in the dining area. A breakfast bar was also added to the courtyard window with direct access to the kitchen.
