House 2 – Leah & Ash
Kitchen Reveal
With a focus on Micro Luxury, Leah and Ash have balanced style and functionality in their modern kitchen design, proving that you can successfully blend a chic colour palette with smart design to create a statement in smaller spaces. Warmth is created through the opulent Bottega Oak joinery which has been used throughout the kitchen cabinet design. New Champagne-look Soft Ziato Metallic kitchen doors add the perfect amount of glamour above the cooking zone, with Flexy LED Strip lighting illuminating the alcove below. The addition of our new Matt Black Ova Pull kitchen handles and quartzite-inspired benchtops and splashbacks complete the look.
“We wanted to create a kitchen that is bold, sophisticated, and functional, says Leah. We love to inject colour into our designs, and this was no exception, we really wanted to create ‘wow factor’ as we know that kitchens sell houses.”
The curved kitchen island bench extends a generous 3 metres, providing plenty of storage and seating space. It features an effective cleaning zone with the inclusion of a Gunmetal Häfele sink and tap, plus an integrated dishwasher and concealed Ninka Bins.
A true entertainer’s kitchen, the room offers a plethora of cooking appliances, including two ovens below the cooktop. Two integrated wine fridges are also included, along with a pull-out pantry that conceals the butler’s pantry behind it. The pantry cabinets allow mess to be hidden away, providing plenty of cleaning and storage space.
