Modern minimalism from Sublime Luxury Kitchen & Bathrooms

Contemporary living was high on the agenda for the owner of this inner-city apartment, with the centrepiece being the spectacular, cosmopolitan galley-style kitchen, designed by Kim Duffin of Sublime Luxury Kitchen & Bathrooms. A bespoke, feature bench top made from cantilevered, silky oak timber is a unique feature.

Lloyd Hodgkinson of John Croft Design injected a modern feel into a 1920s era home, including this simple and chic new open-plan kitchen, which connects the living areas and is perfect for the homeowner, both keen entertainers. Traditional cabinet fronts and aged bronze hardware give a classic feel and a respectful nod to the original home.

This spectacular re-design of a West End home by Baber Studio is aptly named The Shutter House. The kitchen takes pride of place here, with its angular lines reflecting the vertical timber screens that can be completely opened up to allow the outside in.

Concrete, glass, timber and steel combine to create a modern kitchen that takes industrial style into a whole new level of luxe. At once subtle and spectacular, this beautiful kitchen is befitting the home’s impressive waterfront location – the water’s edge a mere stone’s throw from the cooking space.

The modern Cape Cod-inspired style of this home, designed by Leigh Boswell from Highgate House alongside Harry Poulos Architects and builders Abri Homes, extends through to this divine, spacious kitchen. Fabulous and functional, it features classic, elegant skirting boards, window mouldings and joinery details, including turned posts on the island bench, with Carrara marble bench top and ‘tufted’ tiles on the splash back.

Show stopping style from Enigma Interiors.

A showpiece kitchen designed by Enigma Interiors is more like a functional work of art, thanks to the beautiful mosaic feature wall and combination of natural stone, timber grain and clever incorporated storage. Thick borders are a fantastic design feature, too.
