Aotea Tree Patterned White Kitchen
By Simone van der Plas Interior Design
Can this be classified as yet another white kitchen? Well yes, but is it boring? NO WAY!! When given the brief for a white kitchen for this new build I said to the client, "how do you feel about making this white kitchen a little unusual? We don't want yet another white kitchen of the style that we see in magazines all the time" A resounding "Yes" allowed me to explore the idea of routing a specific pattern/design into the cabinetry - this provided some technical difficulties, however, these were promptly overturned by myself and the super joinery team I worked with. Hence, the tree pattern added the texture and interest factor that is usually lacking in kitchens. A large family kitchen befitting of the size of the home it is in, I incorporated a walk-in pantry and a separate area for the coffee maker. Large benches, hardwearing surfaces and tons of storage allows the kitchen to function perfectly for a family whilst creating wow factor.
