Small Kitchen with Stainless Steel Benchtops and Laminate Benchtops Design Ideas

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.

Une cuisine compacte qui a tout d'une grande. Finition blanc mat, chêne et crédence verte effet zellige pour se marier avec les tomettes d'origine. Les touches de laiton apportent la touche d'élégance.

Les caissons bas ont été réutilisés et habillés par des façades sur-mesures en peuplier. Les murs ont été peints en blanc pour gagné en luminosité et en impression d'espace. Le mur est habillé de meubles hauts pour un maximum de rangement. Le damier noir et blanc, élément de décoration graphique, est conservé. Les clients ont demandé à garder la chaudière apparente.
