Metallic white lacquer kitchen and oak Streif veneer

As part of a comprehensive renovation in which every possible wall in the central space was removed, openings were enlarged to bring in natural light, and the electrical system was replaced with a smart system throughout the entire house. At the heart of the home, a kitchen was designed to be its centerpiece: spacious, flowing, and seamlessly connected with the living room and the outdoors. The fronts are finished in metallic white lacquer, paired with Streif oak veneer, creating an elegant line that blends modernity with natural warmth.

The toe kicks and handles were painted to match the kitchen’s tone for a perfectly continuous look, and the large island—designed in place of a dining area—allows for face-to-face family seating, making it both practical and an enjoyable experience. An additional storage area was incorporated beneath the staircase, including a hidden freezer, while the connection to the wooden floor continues the warm, seamless feel of the space.

The design was completed with a travertine-look porcelain granite countertop that brings a sense of natural calm, and a large custom-designed clock from the designer’s clock collection was hung on the kitchen wall. A functional art piece that adds unique character and precise presence.

As in every project, the combination of meticulous planning, personalized design, and original details is what transforms the entire space into a complete and cohesive experience.
