The brief

“Strong light and long views made every finish choice visible, while the existing cabinetry cut the kitchen off from its landscape.”

The design direction

“The concept reduces visual noise, uses a low-sheen material palette, and frames the horizon from both prep and dining zones.”

Material direction

Built from
the right details.

01Bleached oak

A dry, sun-softened cabinet finish.

02Travertine

Natural movement with a quiet colour range.

03Living brass

A small warmth at touchpoints.

04Bronze mesh

Depth and ventilation at tall storage.
