To add depth and contrast to this green & grey kitchen scheme, we opted for the Manhattan Volcanic Oak as an accent, creating an earthy, harmonious palette that resonated with our customers aesthetic sensibilities.

Making Dreams Come True Our client's brief was a heartfelt wish for a new kitchen. As they courageously navigated challenging health circumstances, our goal was to create a positive and uplifting distraction, making their dream a reality. The existing kitchen required significant improvements. With missing cabinet doors and storage options that were less than ideal. We focused on enhancing the functionality and flow throughout the kitchen by designing a contemporary space. Integrated appliances and carefully planned storage areas formed our design approach. We specified a dedicated coffee station, an oil pull-out, additional drawer storage, and cutlery trays strategically placed at both the serving and cooking zones. Features such as the Hettich Orita moving corner and multi-bin pull-out storage supported their admirable commitment to recycling. Melteca Charred Oak, Organic Finish panels, infuse warmth into the space and are complemented the timeless Stat Vein Quartz benchtops by Uniquartz and elegant Brushed Nickel accessories. It was a privilege to help bring happiness into our clients’ lives by fulfilling their wish for a new kitchen. We are delighted that they love the outcome and the transformation achieved. ?? www.msamuels-design.co.nz Design by: Michelle Samuels Design Cabinetry by: Kitchens 2 Go Panels by: Laminex NZ Benchtop by: Universal Granite & Marbles Hardware by: Blum New Zealand Accessories by: HafeleNZ and HettichNZ #MichelleSamuelsDesign #AucklandKitchenDesigner #KitchenDesigner #AucklandInteriorDesigner #InteriorDesigner #Followus
