Their renovation journey
1. Plan
This renovation began with a clear plan. Riikka and Gerry, who were expecting a baby, emphasised the importance of completing their kitchen before the new arrival. In a 30-minute planning call, they shared their vision with their planner, Courtney. Courtney then created a detailed proposal with a clear roadmap tailored to their timeline and price breakdown.
2. Design
Riika and Gerry worked with our designer Suzi designed the space to align with the customers' vision. The design features a timeless muted palette and thoughtful spatial enhancements to create a calm, welcoming atmosphere.
3. Build
The materials used were carefully chosen for their quick lead times, ensuring the project remained on schedule during build.
The layout
The addition of a breakfast bar and a larder unit effectively zones the elongated kitchen while enhancing storage capacity.
This new layout promotes social interaction with plenty of seating around the kitchen - which was important to Riikka and Gerry.
The aesthetic
The aesthetic features soft, neutral tones creating a harmonious and understated look.
The finishes balance functionality with aesthetics, incorporating matte and gloss textures to add depth without overwhelming the space. Stainless-steel finishes were chosen for their durability and sleek, contemporary appeal.
To stay within budget, Suzi used egger board drawers instead of plywood. Reducing cost without compromising quality.
Build support
There was an issue with the cabinetry handles and bins. We helped resolve this issue by coordinating with the wider team and ordering replacements. We paid for express shipping and covered the extra delivery charge to avoid delaying the contractor’s work.
