Naylor Builders has delivered a stunning kitchen build that epitomises modern living, combining sleek design, functional storage, and an inviting atmosphere.
Located on a small block, the owners desired a kitchen with clean lines, an abundance of natural light, and a harmonious blend of whites, blacks, and soft accent colours. Their vision centred on creating a space that was both visually striking and ultra-functional, perfect for entertaining and family life.
The heart of the design is the expansive 60mm stone island benchtop, made from AC Stone’s Storm Clouds, which provides ample space for prep work, casual meals, and gathering. The stone’s dramatic veining contrasts beautifully with the high-gloss black cabinetry, creating
a striking yet elegant aesthetic. The cascading open wine racks add a touch of sophistication while serving as both a functional and decorative feature. The island, paired with a functional bar area, is designed for seamless entertaining, allowing guests to easily move between
the kitchen and lounge areas.
Storage was a key consideration in the design process, with a pull-out pantry and ample cabinetry integrated throughout the kitchen, ensuring that everything has a place and can be kept within easy reach. The owners also requested a butler’s pantry that flowed naturally into the kitchen, creating an open-plan feel throughout the home. This thoughtful design element ensures the space remains connected, from the kitchen to the laundry and dining area, despite the compact layout.
To complement the sleek design, the colour palette includes soft hues and earthy tones, adding warmth and creating an inviting atmosphere. The space feels bright and airy yet has a moody undertone, thanks to the high-contrast joinery and carefully chosen materials. These choices not only elevate the visual appeal but also contribute to the kitchen’s practicality, with surfaces that are easy to clean and maintain.
