Cooling down a family home with cool tones to balance out Brisbane’s warm, outdoor lifestyle – this revamped Ashgrove home is nestled into the leafy suburb with all its traditional charm with the addition of modern creature comforts.
By removing the dysfunctional 90s kitchen we were able to update the useability of the space with a fabulous U-shaped kitchen for a busy Brisbane family to enjoy. The client’s in this case are avid art collectors which gave Align designer, Alana, much inspiration to pull from in terms of colour and textures.
The varying colours of the UNICA Melange Acquamarina and UNICA Melange Bianco splashback tiles provide a beautifully understated backdrop whilst opening up to artistic influences that speak gently to the rest of the house.
The hardy stainless steel benchtop with integrated sink creates a durable worktop surface whilst giving the space an eclectic mix of traditional and industrial styles in this Ashgrovian Queenslander.
In keeping with this seamless theme, the integrated dishwasher hides behind a cupboard door, just as a Hafele blind corner unit offers a modern and invisible solution to corner storage. No unnecessary stacking on the bench of dishes and appliances.
Another out of sight modern feature of this kitchen is the PureMix Z6 Water Filter installed to purify the water for the family. Often the most useful technology is unseen, such as the integrated rangehood. Notice it now?
Alana was able to keep the modern and traditional aspects flowing together by connecting the spacious back deck to the new kitchen through the servery window where family meals can now be seamlessly served. Exterior custom cabinets combined with a solid timber bench top provide warmth and functionality to an outdoor, Queenslander lifestyle.
