Our client is a master chef extraordinaire! This TINY kitchen had to be gutted and re-installed with electrics, plumbing, tiling, lighting and cabinetry.
The challenge was to maximise space, create a sense of light and make space for a washing machine. The space measured a mere 2 x 3.4m - hardly space to swing a cat. Yet with careful planning and capitalizing on the almost 3m high ceilings we managed to fit in a broom and grocery cupboard, pot drawers and even a designated space for a new microwave.
Using large format white tiles and white wall mounted cabinets with glass fronts opened up everything at eye level. The use of a cool blue colour which visually recedes also created a sense of depth and gave it a casual beachy feel.
At Njabulo Projects we like to include something personal as a reminder of the original space. In this case we created a bespoke tea towel holder using the original wall tiles and a cabinet door. Old meets new and many scrumptious meals will be prepared with love in this delightful kitchen.
