Though the finished result is sleek and contemporary,
there was significant detailed input required to
achieve this. For example, picking up the clients
original desire to see the stone wall from inside,
SDA proposed to frame a view of the wall through
the kitchen - the wall would be lit at night to create
an interesting feature. It was paramount that the
appliances sat to the right of this frame, completing
a simple rectangle.. To achieve this, consideration
was given to the height of the appliances, worktop
height, underside of wall units (in order there was
sufficient headroom) and interfaces of marble top
with lacquered reveals. The end result is a simple,
framed view of the stone wall, but this was the
outcome of many design deliberations.
Similar to the concept of the dining storage wall,
the clients were keen to maximise storage and
practicality. As such, SDA designed a pantry area
so items like toaster, cereal boxes etc can be easily
accessible, yet hidden away to maintain the clean
block aesthetic.
