We collaborated closely with our client who entrusted us with the task of transforming their kitchen into a seamless extension of their 'New York loft' style home, characterized by red brick and dark steel elements. The challenge was to bridge the gap between the existing kitchen's incongruous design and the desired aesthetic, all while creating a functional space tailored for a passionate baker and cook.

Influenced by our client's love for baking and culinary pursuits, the kitchen's layout was thoughtfully crafted. It serves as a sanctuary, offering an escape from her demanding professional life while catering to her family's needs. Emphasizing functionality, our client selected two under-bench Pyrolytic Slide&Hide Neff ovens for accessibility and space optimization. A generously sized induction hob was integrated to accommodate their bustling household.

The fusion of rich tones, featuring Dekton porcelain and chocolate veneer, resulted in the crafting of this elegantly sophisticated kitchen for our esteemed client.
