WORK-LIFE BALANCE WITH A LIFESTYLE KITCHEN BY BRANDT DESIGN
Luxury kitchen and interior design studio , Brandt Design , showcase their expertise with a bespoke open- plan lifestyle kitchen for a large 4-bedroom property in the leafy suburb of Mill Hill , Northwest London .
Creating a positive balance between home , work and play was the order of the day in this unique scheme and Julia Steadman , Commercial Director at Brandt Design explains , “ We knew we were going to have fun working on this project as we needed to create a kitchen living space , which combines our client ’ s love of cooking , home entertaining , and rest and recreation with the addition of a full-size indoor ping pong table !
In the main kitchen area , the Brandt Design contemporary style Urban Furniture in a dark wood finish helps absorb the natural daylight flooding in via the Crittall-style full height glazing , which includes French doors to the garden . A modern 8-spot lighting rail system in matt black helps to define the kitchen space , which features a run of full height handleless cabinets , block island and inset display storage .
The central island unit is the ideal space for family cooking , wine tasting and informal dining with family and friends being fully equipped with a flush mount BORA PURA induction glass ceramic cooktop , built-in wine cabinet by Caple and brown leather bar stools , which comfortably seat up to four . For extra peace of mind and to provide a direct contrast against the dark furniture , the kitchen furniture is paired with durable , easy-clean surfaces in Calacatta Supreme : a luxurious marble-effect quartz from the Brandt Collection .
The set of three fully integrated ovens by Siemens ensure professional baking at home , choosing a conventional oven , combi microwave and steam oven for optimum cooking results .
