and functional design for when they are
entertaining.
The extension along the wall contains
a wine fridge and drinks area, making
these easily accessible without disturbing
any activity going on in the kitchen itself.
A subtly patterned marble was used
for the benchtop, which waterfalls at both
the kitchen end and at the far end of the
extension, which is at the entrance into the
open-plan living, dining and kitchen area.
Within the kitchen, the cooking zone
is on the back wall. While this consists
predominantly of a bank of black cabinets,
the cooktop area sits within a white inset.
The splashback is comprised of three
Poliform Shaker panels, each with narrow
shelving to accommodate spices, herbs
and other small items.
For Marketa Ramage, this is another
example of how the kitchen has good
functionality as well as aesthetics.
“It really reflects the Italian lifestyle,”
she says. “And, by combining the differ-
ent materials, we’ve created a unique and
bespoke kitchen design.”

of Studio Italia to complement the wider interior
design, this Poliform kitchen is also very practical
and functional when the homeowners entertain.
Facing page: The kitchen peninsula extends
beyond the kitchen itself to accommodate a wine
fridge and drinks area, which is easily accessible
from the dining and living areas.

can be kept handy on 100mm-wide shelving
incorporated in three Poliform Shaker panels that
create the splashback behind the cooking area.
