Open Plan Kitchen with an Integrated Sink and a Single-bowl Sink Design Ideas

This Northern Beaches kitchen renovation in Elanora Heights blends modern elegance with rural warmth. Featuring Cristallo Patagonia quartzite, premium appliances, and bespoke joinery, the redesign delivers both functionality and sophistication. Inspired by the home’s coastal-country setting, the space reflects timeless craftsmanship while meeting the lifestyle needs of empty nesters.

The space showcases a seamless blend of modern and functional design. It emphasizes an open-plan layout, natural light, and integration between indoor and outdoor areas. Key features include sleek kitchen cabinetry, a central island, cozy leather sofas, vibrant accents, and bi-fold glass doors leading to an inviting outdoor deck. The design prioritizes spaciousness, cohesion, and fluidity.

A visually striking yet highly practical Schüller kitchen, this modern design embraces a refined minimalist aesthetic with clean architectural lines and carefully balanced materials. Finished in Siena Velvet Lacquer matt, the dark navy lay-on slab cabinetry is opened with grip ledges and push-open doors and fitted with integrated appliances for a sleek & monolithic appearance. The dark navy cabinetry is darkened further by the black sink, matching U-shaped tap, integrated oven and pendant lighting, while the palette is warmed by the integrated shelf lighting and wood textures, balancing the colour scheme for an overall clear, composed and compact appearance. A run of base and wall units were designed to add additional storage to this living room while also adding bench seating for the dining room table, without interrupting the minimalist aesthetic or subtracting from the wild Atlantic coastline.

This stunning kitchen project in Dulwich perfectly balances timeless tradition and modern-day functionality. Designed with both elegance and practicality in mind, it showcases exquisite craftsmanship and thoughtful attention to detail throughout. The in-frame cabinetry features classic Shaker-style doors, constructed with an 18mm oak veneer carcass and finished with beech doors. Inside, solid oak dovetailed drawer boxes glide smoothly on soft-close runners, combining strength with luxury. All of the cabinetry has been painted in Pink Ground by Farrow & Ball - a soft, warm tone that brings a welcoming and subtly romantic feel to the space. Antique brass knobs and cup handles add a layer of traditional charm and timeless character. The worktops and splashback are finished in 20mm Calacatta Gold quartz, which adds a touch of luxury with its distinctive veining and polished finish while offering exceptional durability for everyday use. Premium appliances are seamlessly integrated, including a 90cm Fisher & Paykel American-style fridge freezer, a NEFF steam oven, a NEFF micro-combi oven, and an induction hob. A classic Butler sink paired with a Quooker tap enhances both style and function, while a Caple wine fridge positioned in the island makes entertaining a breeze. This kitchen is a beautiful reflection of how classic design and contemporary living can come together in perfect harmony. Inspired by this space?

Faire l’acquisition de surfaces sous les toits nécessite parfois une faculté de projection importante, ce qui fut le cas pour nos clients du projet Timbaud. Initialement configuré en deux « chambres de bonnes », la réunion de ces deux dernières et l’ouverture des volumes a permis de transformer l’ensemble en un appartement deux pièces très fonctionnel et lumineux. Avec presque 41m2 au sol (29m2 carrez), les rangements ont été maximisés dans tous les espaces avec notamment un grand dressing dans la chambre, la cuisine ouverte sur le salon séjour, et la salle d’eau séparée des sanitaires, le tout baigné de lumière naturelle avec une vue dégagée sur les toits de Paris. Tout en prenant en considération les problématiques liées au diagnostic énergétique initialement très faible, cette rénovation allie esthétisme, optimisation et performances actuelles dans un soucis du détail pour cet appartement destiné à la location.

As evenings get darker, introduce a taste of the Mediterranean to your culinary space. Choose cabinets in warm, earthy tones (such as Terra from HUSK's new Natura range), then set it off with confident hardware. Enter our FOLD Collection. Embracing a shift to statement design details in the kitchen space, this range comprises bold, circular forms that are manufactured from solid sheet brass. Pack a punch in choosing our surface-mounted pulls, which are installed to sit proudly on cabinet fronts. Or err on the side of discretion with our more subtle edge pulls. Both of equal thickness, these designs feel intentional on contact, plus offer the toasty glow of a lacquered brass finish. Complete your kitchen scheme with a jewel-toned, resin-based Terrazzo worksurface, then style the space with hand-finished ceramics and low-maintenance plants. What we can't help with is the view of rolling Tuscan hills — sorry.

This elegant kitchen transformation in West Ealing was designed for a family living in a beautiful Victorian home. The main kitchen, island, and bar zone feature in-frame cabinetry with classic Shaker doors, painted in Little Greene’s Sage Green, while the island stands out in Green Stone Light, adding soft contrast. In the adjoining pantry, Jigsaw’s Ascot lay-on furniture continues the Shaker design, finished in French Grey for a subtle, complementary tone. Worktops and splashbacks are in 20mm Cosistone Carrara Classic quartz, chosen for their refined marble effect and excellent durability. Some of the family’s existing appliances were seamlessly integrated into the new design, including the fridge freezer, while RMK supplied and installed new components. All these details ensure the kitchen performs as beautifully as it looks. Visit our website for more kitchen designs.
