There is a subtle mystery to this kitchen with hidden drawer-in-drawer technology and mirrored glass cupboard fronts. The kitchen invitingly wraps around a wall to keep the ‘secrets of the kitchen’ out of view, and bifold doors that open to reveal an artful range of storage options.
Interchanging mirrored and matt-black surfaces provides tonal changes that give this black kitchen it’s extra pizzazz.
Further, selecting white splashbacks and benchtops in a mix of engineered stone and granite provides visual contrast, and grounds the black.
Orienting the island bench to allow those doing the hard work to enjoy the sumptuous view means being in the kitchen is never a chore.
A wine fridge at the end of the bench and away from the action is a win for guests.
