Modern Meets Classic: A Custom Kitchen Inspired by Architectural Arches.
A Kitchen That Welcomes the Morning
There’s a sense of calm in this custom-designed kitchen — a space that glows with soft morning light and thoughtful design details. The cabinetry is finished in Resene Emerge that complements the warmth of timber flooring and brushed brass handles. At the heart of the space sits a striking Dekton Morpheus stone benchtop island, offering a durable, low-maintenance surface with soft veining that brings elegance and texture.
The joinery on the island is just as considered, with panel detailing that adds depth and a sense of craft. Premium Blum soft-close hardware ensures every drawer and door functions perfectly.
Arched profiles in the cabinetry take inspiration from the original timber front door, weaving a visual story of curves and continuity throughout the room. This is a kitchen that balances modern functionality with classic form. Glass-fronted display cabinet features ambient lighting, creating a gentle evening glow and highlighting curated objects inside.
A blend of practicality and personality, this kitchen was designed to work beautifully and look timeless — a space that feels just as good to live in as it does to look at.
