What was once a dark and enclosed kitchen has been completely transformed by the expert team at Naylor Builders. It’s now a vibrant, light-filled space that’s truly the heart of the home.
With minimal natural light and little functional storage, the original kitchen wasn’t suited to the homeowners’ lifestyle. With a clear vision and hands-on involvement from the homeowners, Naylor Buildings brought the homeowners’ dream kitchen to life. Central to the design was opening up the space and maximising natural light. This has been achieved beautifully with a large skylight and window splashback that allow sunlight to flood the kitchen. The hero island bench provides plenty of space for food prep as well as seating for casual meals.
Additional design highlights include timeless Shaker-style cabinetry in the calming shade of Spinifex, and a generous oversized farmhouse sink paired with minimalist yet functional tapware. Take note of the walk-in pantry – it was ingeniously created from what was once just a cupboard. Despite challenging the angled wall configurations, the expert team built this special addition with precision to give the homeowners some much needed extra storage space.
Modern features are incorporated throughout, ensuring the space will remain contemporary.
This area is now ideal for everyday living and weekend entertaining. A fresh, functional kitchen that balances character and comfort with clever use of space – what more could you want for the heart of your home?
