Modern, Glossy and Sleek

This beautiful kitchen cleverly celebrates the vibrant hues of a glossy ultra-modern finish. There is something very uplifting about the natural light bouncing back from the shiny Artic White and Alpine Grey fronts and reflecting it into the room. The classic white and grey colours work in perfect harmony and are beautifully complemented by the light worktops and the pale splashback. The tall units in Alpine Grey have been paired up with stainless steel and black appliances, such as the American Style Fridge Freezer from Fisher & Paykal and the integrated Siemens ovens. They not only bring up a contrasting effect, but also elegantly call attention to another surprising detail: the fabulous inset handles.

The Quartz surfaces follow the same serene colour scheme. And with its characteristic luminosity, brightness and smoothness to the touch, takes the whole design to an entire upper level. The refinement of all these elements only gains momentum when additional personal touches, in different materials and finishes, come into play, for instance, the absolutely gorgeous light pendants.

Celebrating Big Spaces

Contemporary kitchens are all about celebrating life. This big well-thought space creates a place where the family can come together to eat, live and entertain. One clever way of enhancing this feeling of space has been to include a pull out larder in the centre space of the kitchen. When opened, it reveals hips of space one never thought possible. Relying on advanced manufacturing methods, these units not only look grand, but also offer an incredible amount of storage. Due to well-thought interior divisions and ergonomic qualities, goods are easily stored and reached.

A Clever and Unique Kitchen Layout

The kitchen island has been positioned in the middle of the cooking and preparation areas, whereas the peninsula takes a more defining role, working as a divider between the cooking and the dining area. The island units are also handless and glossy, following the same minimalistic look of the rest of the kitchen. Additionally, the island is also wrapped around in the same material as the worktop surfaces and cleverly houses a wine cooler.

Outstanding Appliances

High quality kitchen appliances can turn ordinary cooking tasks into extraordinary culinary experiences. These top of the range Siemens appliances, like these all built-in electric and microwave combi ovens make this kitchen trendy and practical. The Siemens induction hob, with its hi-tech functions and yet uncomplicated operation program is totally in line with the sleek look, helping to keep the space fresh and modern. The Franke Fuji tap with pull out nozzle completes the look. Its silk steel finish goes in line with the rest of the kitchen appliances. Again, the lovely pendants in glossy ivory colour positioned above the island, the peninsula and the dining table, add a glamorous touch, giving the space character and style, making the perfect finishing statement.

Artic White and Alpine Grey

Handleless glossy unit fronts in bright Artic White and Alpine Grey are the perfect choice for contemporary kitchens. Elegant, uncomplicated and modern, this duo is uplifting, without ever being over the top. Absolutely perfect for open-plan kitchens.  Add in sleek appliances, quality working surfaces and a statement lighting scheme and ‘voilà’, you have a kitchen that is not only oozing with character and sophistication, but a place that is functional and practical, and that accounts for your everyday kitchen needs.

Classic White and Concrete Kitchen

If you are seriously addicted to traditional whites and pale neutrals but at the same time like to experiment with exciting new materials, then this handleless White and Concrete Kitchen is a clear winner. In this project, the classic white works as the perfect starting point, as it serves as an elegant base and yet, it blends in effortlessly with the contrasting grey element of the lower units, coated in real Concrete. Additionally, it makes way for the sublime marble effect worktop, wrapping the island and covering the remaining surfaces. In this design, the charming colour contrast of the white and grey tones is undoubtedly the key element behind this dramatic look.

The Glamorous Touch

Concrete can turn ordinary into glamorous. This modern open plan Kitchen is stylish and characterful. To achieve this look, an elegant and simple white backdrop has been created with the tall units in white which keeps the space fresh and brings in light. The lower units have been glamorised with a sprayed layer of real Concrete. This revolutionary hand-crafted production method gives each front its uniquely individual character. In this way, the varied grey texture of Concrete is deliberately transferred into the Kitchen. The individual grey pattern of the Concrete fronts is almost enough to transform this Kitchen, breaking the otherwise clinically white theme and therefore transforming the whole room with warmth, texture and an authentic feel. The elegant worktop in marble effect Dekton Aura 15, works by making the perfect finishing statement, like a cherry on a cake.

Taking it to the next level

In this Kitchen, it’s not only the fabulous cabinetry that makes a statement. Functionality and elegance also appear in the shape of the state-of-the-art electric appliances. Here, the cooktop of choice is the Bora Professional Cooktop. This innovative Kitchen cooktop has its extractor built within, this means that cooking vapours can be suctioned away exactly where they arise: directly at the cookpot, from pots, frying pans or grills. It has been described as “the piece of résistance” of modern Kitchen appliances. It combines simplicity, functionality and optimum performance in a single, electrically controlled system. The cooktops and the cooktop extractor communicate with each other and even the cover flap opens and closes automatically.

Additionally, the integrated electric Siemens appliances (Single Oven with Grill, Micro-oven, Fridge Freezer and Warming Drawer) along with the Miele integrated Dishwasher, fits well with the whole streamline look and adds practicality and a contemporary feel to the Kitchen. Still keeping up with the idea of stylish, practical and smart living, there’s the hot-water tap, which works by keeping work surfaces as free of clutter as possible, as it replaces the need of a kettle. The Fusion Square Brushed Chrome Quooker tap is the latest in hot-water taps in the current market. It gives instant access to 100 degrees boiling water, helping to save energy, time and money. It also has a separate function of offering filtered water that is processed through activated carbon filters ensuring water that smells and tastes better, adding the last detail to a fully modern Kitchen.

Setting the Scene with an Outstanding Island

Choosing contrasting colour tones usually helps define zones in large open-plan rooms. In this Kitchen dinner, the streamlined handleless white cabinetry against the wall, draws the eye and injects light into this large area. The central island in grey Concrete, with the marble effect down-turns and adorned by the breakfast bar in concrete reproduction, is a social station that celebrates colour contrast and instantly uplifts the whole room. In this open Kitchen, the island very elegantly takes on several functions: it structures the room, offers ample storage space and introduces a more formal dining area. The dining table, also in concrete reproduction, matches the breakfast bar. The natural wood floors soften the strong contrast colour effect, adding to the room a warm elegance.

Leicht Carbon Grey and Oak, Richmond

Carbon Grey and Antique Oak Fronts Combined

Here is a perfect example of combining different and exciting materials to achieve perfect harmony.  The dark tones of the bondi Carbon Grey supper matt make a strong statement, adding mystery and drama, while the wood effect from the Synthia Antique Oak brings in a natural appearance and homeliness.  These two contrasting elements, combined with the white surface of the Neolith Calacatta marble effect, translate into a Kitchen oozing elegance, unrivalled distinction and long-lasting character.

The Bondi Carbon Grey cabinet fronts from Leicht are given a special lacquer finish that has a pleasant surface feel and an anti-fingerprint effect.

Bar Handles

The long bar handles, fitted to some, but not all units, emphasise the horizontal lines and help to define the modern look.  The handleless units are fitted with push catch door systems.

Multiple Ovens

The clients have opted for integrated electrical ovens.  The Siemens Multipurpose ovens (Microwave, Steam and 2 Electric) stand proudly in the high units and provide functionality as well as comfort.

The Worktop

The worktop proposed for this Kitchen project, is the Neolith Calacatta.  The authentic marble effect is further enhanced by the boldness of the grey and the warm of the browns, and complements the decor.  The virtually seamless transition between the worktop and the splashback, with the veins continuing down the splashback and along the worktop, makes a coherent, consistent overall impression.
