“The key to success with this modern-with-
a-twist style kitchen was to keep it simple,” says
the designer. “Sticking to one or two colours,
with only light detailing; honing the benchtop,
to soften the look; and using traditional pulls on
the drawers – with most finished in matt black.
“One other request from the owners was
for a window seat looking across to the front of
the house. I introduced this to the right of the
kitchen, with storage underneath,” says von
Sturmer. “The owner loves it – it’s now her
favourite space in the house.”

provides a low maintenance, hard-

the kitchen. The black minimalist
wall-mounted extractor blends
in unnoticed with the black tiled
splashback, while the raked bulkhead
provides a logical extension to the
sculptural folding ceiling planes.
