A MODERN KITCHEN IN WHITE AND BLACK

This new house is located in the newly developed area of Rangitahi in Raglan. It showcases a beautiful design that features a mostly black exterior, with a contemporary and modern aesthetic.

Inside, the interior is bright and light, featuring an open-plan layout that seamlessly connects the living, dining, and kitchen spaces. In the living room adjacent to the kitchen a raking plywood ceiling adds height and creates a spacious atmosphere.

Our clients asked us to build a kitchen that blends into the modern design of white and black with natural timber tones and some punches of colour. Working closely together with our client, we planned the kitchen to ensure it not only met their functional needs but also contributed to the overall aesthetic of the home.

The kitchen showcases an interplay of white and black elements, with the cabinetry contributing texture and depth through its pronounced lines. The work benchtop combines a thick stainless steel plate on plywood, offering a sturdy and practical surface while being elegant. Meanwhile, the kitchen island boasts a handmade concrete benchtop, which not only adds texture but also serves as a beautiful focal point in this gathering area.

SHELVES FOR ALL THE TREASURES

Our clients asked us to design a modern plywood shelf for books and other treasures to fit underneath theirs stairs , as well as a plant shelving solution for a currently unused corner space adjacent to the bookshelf.

Crafted from modular Birch plywood cubes, it is strategically positioned beneath the stairs in a stepped configuration. Its design provides ample space for storing books, magazines, and various other items while adding visual interest to the area.

The interconnected cubes not only offer storage compartments but also create additional usable spaces in between. This feature adds functionality to the shelf, allowing you to display or store items of different sizes or heights.

We chose to incorporate a black backing on some of the cubes. The black colour serves multiple purposes: it makes the colourful treasures inside the cubes stand out, creating an attractive visual contrast. Additionally, it establishes a connection to other black accents in the home, enhancing the overall harmony of the interior design. The use of Rattan for the lower drawer and cupboard units adds warmth and texture to the overall design.

In the corner, in front of the stairs, there's a floating plant shelf designed with multiple levels. It provides a perfect spot for various plants and special items. The rounded corners give it a softer look, and the design itself feels light and modern. The black box creates a link to the bookshelf in the background to bring everything together and add a cohesive touch to the space.
