Materials & finishes
We favour locally sourced timbers, recycled composite benchtops, and low-VOC cabinetry. Below are common palettes and recommended pairings.
- Warm oak + honed stone benchtop + matte black fixtures
- Flat white lacquer + engineered timber floor + warm brass accents
- Deep green cabinetry + oak open shelving + textured tiles
Case studies
Reconfigured layout to add full-height pantry, integrated fridge and a pull-out prep surface. Result: improved workflow and seating for four.
Careful material choices to preserve character: timber-look cabinetry, stone benchtop, and concealed modern appliances.
Island bench reoriented to define zones; engineered timber and integrated storage improved capacity without crowding the living area.
