Open Plan Kitchen with White Splashback and Granite Splashback Design Ideas

This kitchen showcases a harmonious blend of contemporary design and classic architecture. The room is well-lit, with natural light streaming in from a large window on the left. The ceiling features intricate crown molding, indicative of the building's Grade 2 listing and historical significance. Three elegant pendant lights with a brass finish and frosted glass shades hang above the central island, which is topped with a pristine white countertop. The island also incorporates a built-in sink and a cooktop, offering functionality within its streamlined form. Two modern bar stools with curved silhouettes and dark wooden legs are positioned at the island, providing casual seating. The kitchen cabinetry is minimalistic, with handleless doors painted in a muted off-white tone that complements the overall neutral palette. A splashback of white marble adds a touch of luxury and ties in with the countertop. The flooring is laid in a herringbone pattern, adding texture and a classic touch to the space. A small selection of books and a vase with eucalyptus branches introduce a personal and lived-in feel to the otherwise minimalist kitchen.

Every detail in this WAD kitchen is a tribute to refined minimalism and silent luxury. Can you imagine a space where everything aligns with elegance and purpose? This design features flawless surfaces, built-in appliances, soft textures, and a soothing monochromatic palette that enhances natural light and spatial flow. Crafted for those who appreciate serenity, order, and precision, the kitchen integrates a sculptural island and hidden storage solutions that maintain visual harmony. No handles. No clutter. Just a perfectly orchestrated experience. A high-functioning layout and premium materials ensure it’s as practical as it is beautiful. Ready to elevate your kitchen to a timeless masterpiece?

Amos Goldreich Architecture has completed an asymmetric brick extension that celebrates light and modern life for a young family in North London. The new layout gives the family distinct kitchen, dining and relaxation zones, and views to the large rear garden from numerous angles within the home. The owners wanted to update the property in a way that would maximise the available space and reconnect different areas while leaving them clearly defined. Rather than building the common, open box extension, Amos Goldreich Architecture created distinctly separate yet connected spaces both externally and internally using an asymmetric form united by pale white bricks. Previously the rear plan of the house was divided into a kitchen, dining room and conservatory. The kitchen and dining room were very dark; the kitchen was incredibly narrow and the late 90’s UPVC conservatory was thermally inefficient. Bringing in natural light and creating views into the garden where the clients’ children often spend time playing were both important elements of the brief. Amos Goldreich Architecture designed a large X by X metre box window in the centre of the sitting room that offers views from both the sitting area and dining table, meaning the clients can keep an eye on the children while working or relaxing. Amos Goldreich Architecture enlivened and lightened the home by working with materials that encourage the diffusion of light throughout the spaces. Exposed timber rafters create a clever shelving screen, functioning both as open storage and a permeable room divider to maintain the connection between the sitting area and kitchen. A deep blue kitchen with plywood handle detailing creates balance and contrast against the light tones of the pale timber and white walls. The new extension is clad in white bricks which help to bounce light around the new interiors, emphasise the freshness and newness, and create a clear, distinct separation from the existing part of the late Victorian semi-detached London home. Brick continues to make an impact in the patio area where Amos Goldreich Architecture chose to use Stone Grey brick pavers for their muted tones and durability. A sedum roof spans the entire extension giving a beautiful view from the first floor bedrooms. The sedum roof also acts to encourage biodiversity and collect rainwater. Continues Amos Goldreich, Director of Amos Goldreich Architecture says: “The Framework House was a fantastic project to work on with our clients. We thought carefully about the space planning to ensure we met the brief for distinct zones, while also keeping a connection to the outdoors and others in the space. “The materials of the project also had to marry with the new plan. We chose to keep the interiors fresh, calm, and clean so our clients could adapt their future interior design choices easily without the need to renovate the space again.” Clients, Tom and Jennifer Allen say: “I couldn’t have envisioned having a space like this. It has completely changed the way we live as a family for the better. We are more connected, yet also have our own spaces to work, eat, play, learn and relax.” “The extension has had an impact on the entire house. When our son looks out of his window on the first floor, he sees a beautiful planted roof that merges with the garden.”

This beautifully designed rear house extension in London adds light, space, and modern functionality to the property. Featuring exposed brickwork, full-height glazing, and striking pitched roof windows, the extension creates a seamless connection between the home and garden. The open-plan layout offers the perfect balance of style and practicality, making it ideal for family living and entertaining.

Designed for a high-rise apartment with breathtaking views, this kitchen strikes a perfect balance between refined aesthetics and tailored functionality. The material palette creates visual harmony and subtle contrast: natural wood upper cabinets, matte white lower doors, and sleek black satin framing details. The central island anchors the space with smart storage solutions by Gröber Plus and a sophisticated integrated breakfast bar. At its core, the kitchen features advanced technology: built-in Bosch ovens, panel-ready refrigerator and dishwasher, and precision lighting that highlights the clean lines and textures. A back-painted glass backsplash reflects the coastal light and connects the kitchen to its panoramic surroundings. This is not just a kitchen. It’s a lifestyle statement.
