View from the top: Retro-modern kitchen design

Want to create a retro yet modern feel for your customers? “This new home, with its pre-cast concrete walls and ceilings and expansive views, is an architectural masterpiece in Glen Osmond, SA.

The kitchen, which is part of an expansive family room, had to be yet another breathtaking part of the creation. The Adelaide vista was to be the main focus of the space, but the owners then wanted visitors to turn around and see a kitchen to knock them off their feet. We began with the theme of timber, concrete and glass, which we used to create a warm room, but also one which had a retro hint about it. The placement of appliances — which include a wok burner — were important, and a longer-than-usual 4.1m island bench was given an interesting finish by using varying thicknesses of Corian for the top as well as sharknose detailing. The retro-modern look also comes across via the timber flooring, and extending this outside draws the eye to the view. Timber cladding, which wraps around the entire kitchen wall and a New York marble splashback comprising two book-matched slabs, are other standout features. The design details and the quality craftsmanship make this an extremely memorable kitchen.”
