Our client in North London commissioned this beautiful freestanding storage unit on wheels to compliment the visible ply edges and cut out handles of the drawers fronts in the kitchen, which were made to fit standard Ikea units. The bespoke floating shelves combined perfectly with our Dusty Jade worktops to finish off the look of this modern kitchen. Colours Used Dusty Jade F7879 Soft White F7949

ID-L61 LEVALLOIS

ORION

ID-L61 est un projet de logement urbain op- timisé pour une vie confortable dans la ré- gion parisienne. Le client souhaitait un intérieur chaleureux et singulier tout en respectant une contrainte budgétaire raisonnable. Nous avons travaillé sur un espace restreint avec un besoin de lumière traversante. Il a fallu ouvrir le plus possible l’espace en créant une cloison amovible aux airs de claustra en rotin. Les teintes vertes et vivantes contrastent avec le bois et les touches sombres pour créer un intérieur vibrant.

The show stopping visual of the New York skyline across the splashback gives the entire kitchen space a striking metropolitan feel. Perhaps it may even encourage our customers to create some New York style deli cooking using the hob unit.

Penthouse im historischen Dachgeschoss

SHIRVANI & OESTERLE

Dieses Projekt widmet sich dem Dachgeschossausbau eines historischen Gebäudes mit einer tiefgreifenden baukonstruktiven Grundsanierung. Hierbei wurden zwei Wohnungen zu einer großzügigen Einheit zusammengeführt, wobei besonderes Augenmerk auf die Optimierung der Erschließung gelegt wurde, um ein nahtloses und harmonisches Wohngefühl zu schaffen. Der Grundriss wurde mit einer offenen Raumgestaltung konzipiert, die von weiten Sichtbezügen geprägt ist. Dabei wird die natürliche Helligkeit gekonnt eingefangen, um eine atmosphärische Weite zu erzeugen. Die Gestaltung folgt einer minimalistischen Ästhetik mit klaren Linien und einer ehrlichen Betonung funktionaler Details. Die Farbpalette im Inneren des Gebäudes ist ruhig und zurückhaltend gehalten. Sanfte Nuancen von Weiß schaffen eine subtile Atmosphäre, während gezielte Akzente aus Messing und geölter Eiche eine warme und organische Note hinzufügen. Diese Materialien fügen sich nahtlos in das Gesamtkonzept ein und betonen die sorgfältig ausgewählten Details. Besonderes Augenmerk wurde auf die Gestaltung des Kinderzimmers gelegt, die durch einen Treppenschrank mit einer integrierten Lerngalerie verbunden ist. Dieses durchdachte Element erweckt mit seiner hochwertigen Ausführung und schlichten Eleganz eine inspirierende Atmosphäre. Es schafft nicht nur einen praktischen Stauraum, sondern bietet gleichzeitig eine organisierte und ästhetisch ansprechende Umgebung für die junge Bewohnerin. Als Herzstück der Wohnung erstrahlt die offene Wohnküche, die durch eine Arbeitsplatte aus glasiertem Lavastein gekonnt in Szene gesetzt wird. Dieser Bereich fungiert als lebendiger Mittelpunkt des Wohnraums und lädt zu geselligen Zusammenkünften ein. Insgesamt verkörpert die Gestaltung der Wohnung einen zeitlosen Stil. Die geschickte Verbindung funktionaler Elemente mit einer ruhigen Formensprache schafft ein Wohnkonzept, das eine harmonische und moderne Erfahrung bietet.

WOW - the broken glass countertops found throughout the kitchen space are genuinely magnificent. This close up demonstrates how each area of the countertop is totally unique thanks to the individual cracks in the glass. The reflection of natural light upon the glass has an utterly stunning effect.

Kitchen with an Integrated Sink and Green Benchtop Design Ideas

There’s a lot to consider when it comes to planning your kitchen design. Where do you even start? Gathering some inspiration in a photo gallery is always a good starting point, as looking at different kitchen designs often brings up ideas you haven’t even thought of yet.

Browse Photos of Kitchen Designs for Inspiration and Collect Your Ideas

You can browse through photos of all kinds of kitchen styles, layouts and sizes on Houzz to get started before jumping into any design software or contacting a local professional for help. Here’s a few considerations to keep in mind when planning your kitchen.

1. What Makes a Good Kitchen Design, and Why is it Important?

For starters, you want to find a balance between aesthetics and function. You may have heard of the ‘kitchen work triangle’, which refers to the space between your fridge, sink and stove. You want everything within easy reach when you’re working in the kitchen and look beautiful at the same time. It’s a good idea to take note of both when browsing our photo gallery.

2. Consider Your Space to Determine Your Kitchen Layout

Firstly, consider the space you have, and the limitations that come with it. Do you have a small kitchen and need to maximise your workspace and storage? Can you allow yourself some more space and a big island with seating? Are you designing your kitchen from scratch or renovating an existing design? Which appliances do you already own and what are their measurements? Are there windows you need to take into consideration when planning cabinets? How do kitchen, living and dining areas connect? Depending on your space and needs, you want to use a shape that suits you. U, G, or L-shaped kitchen, with or without island or peninsula? Know your dimensions, plan cabinetry carefully and consider the placement of your appliances. You don’t want to end up with a finished design, only for your significant other to question where the fridge is supposed to go. Consider from the start where your fridge, oven, microwave and sink goes to save yourself from starting again from scratch - remember the kitchen work triangle! You also want to plan the layout of your cabinets. Maybe you’re planning for a pantry and can do with less storage space in your kitchen, so that your design can be one without upper or lower cabinets for a different look. A corner cabinet can be a smart storage solution if you want to keep the look clean and simple.

3. Decide on a Kitchen Style, But Don’t Forget Practicality

You want the style of your kitchen to reflect your personality and taste. We have curated a large array of kitchen styles here at Houzz, from traditional to contemporary to transitional and everything in between. Consider what your cooking style is for a start - Italy is known for its cuisine, so italian kitchen designs are generally popular. Also consider ergonomics - depending on how much time you spend in your kitchen, the height of your counters can make a big difference to your overall health. You also want to consider colour and finishes of cabinets, countertops and splashbacks. Which colour do you want your cupboards to be? Simple, timeless white or rather making a statement in black? Maybe rather a rustic wood? Also consider the colour of your floor - if you have dark floors, you may want to keep cabinets lighter. You could also go for an all-white look and choose black appliances for contrast. Once you know which style you fancy, don’t forget how you will be using the space. You want to keep cooking in mind, as well as how easy to clean and maintain the space will be. How many cooks do you need to accommodate? Do you have kids around? How much storage do you need? Maybe you want to go for open shelves rather than cabinets and allow for easy reach of key items you use when cooking. Again - remember the triangle! Lastly, choose lighting that both enhances the look of your kitchen as well as your cooking performance, providing light in all the right places.

4. Be Conscious of Your Budget

No matter what you plan for your kitchen design, cost is always a big factor. Be sure to plan with your budget in mind. It may make more sense to go for a modular kitchen design rather than custom build. You can save a lot of money if you get at least 3 estimates from professionals before locking in the job. And don’t forget to allow a 20% buffer for emergencies. Once you are ready to hire a pro, our directory will help you find one, no matter where you are. So whether you're looking for an Interior Designer in Melbourne or an Architect in Sydney, you can be sure to find a qualified expert for the job!
