- KPT Design & Build -

A friend now for some time, this client wanted to to put heads together with KPT to work through a plan to transform their kitchen with a fresh look and a new layout which worked better in their space.

A tough choice in the beginning was wether to do away with the ceiling bulkhead which matched the shape of the old kitchen or to keep, we settled on keep as it would split the main functioning part of the kitchen from the more relaxed dinner end of the equation, in the end it worked.

To achieve the new look and layout we decided on a full length stone island with a waterfall end at one end and 6 to 8 person breakfast/dinner bar at the other, the stone was Lavistone “Ivory Dream” with a wine rack as the base support for the breakfast bar.

Stainless steel benchtop and splashback with integrated stainless steel sinks.

The kitchen units were all finished in natural white satin two pack paint, Hettich soft close internals and hardware.

A custom made reeded timber rangehood cover was constructed to hide the ducting.

We designed and constructed a concealed oak veneer study nook with LED strip in the shelf, also a floating solid oak floating shelf was installed in the kitchen with recessed LED strip too for an evening glow.

The transformation speaks for itself and the new layout flows properly within the space.

This classic heritage picket fence on a beautiful Elwood property had unfortunately reached its final day.

KPT was engaged to bring back a nice refreshed look to the perimeter while keeping within the strict heritage requirements bringing back to new the historic Elwood frontage which makes this suburb one of the most beautiful in Melbourne.

The tricky part on this build was the difference in elevation across both streets and the undulations in the ground due to tree roots etc, getting the finished fence to look uniformed was the ultimate goal.

The fence was built with a mixture of both treated pine & cypress timber, a great option for longevity, the picket style is called 'pointed' for obvious reasons..

This was a tricky space to make work, the client asked KPT to design & try to make the space work with all appliances & items proposed.

Given the small space we were handed, it was certainly a challenge, some compromise had to be involved to make it all work, the sink for instance we decided to offset to the left slightly in order to give the client usable cupboard space that had to work with the washing machine & its plumbing on that wall.

In such a small space, the less visually going on the better, this is why we went for a clean minimal look with the overhead units, no handles, which incorporated an integrated rangehood.

The overall design aimed to give a clean minimalistic look which helps to extenuate the stone bench top & splash back which was G-Lux Tidal White stone, the splashbacks at the sink window were made from Ombra Blanco Porcelain.

The doors & panels were natural white two pack.

Overall the space works really well & storage was absolutely maximised, it has a clean fresh look & a very happy client which is most important.
