Classic Apartment Design

This contemporary kitchen revamp will elevate an apartment’s space through the thoughtful use of greens and browns in cabinetry. Sustainable materials like silica-free engineered surfaces will define the bench tops and splashback, while brass gold hardware and tapware add an element of luxury. Key functional aspects of the design include the integration of pocket doors to conceal a workstation. The result is a modern, functional, and stylish kitchen that blends natural tones, eco-conscious materials, and luxurious detailing.

Warm brown tones, like walnut, oak, or a deep teak, will be used to accentuate key features in the space, including lower cabinets, The brown tones will contrast beautifully with green (being the accent colour) and bring warmth to the design, softening the overall aesthetic. The cabinetry will have no hardware but, drawer pulls will introduce a touch of luxury. The tapware, including a sleek, modern kitchen faucet, will be in brass gold, elevating the design with a timeless metallic accent.

The layout will prioritise functionality with a well-organised work triangle (cooking, prep, and cleaning areas) to ensure the kitchen remains efficient. The pocket doors will help conceal the work area when not needed, (with the added touch of brass hardware) creating a visual balance between hidden storage and open, accessible spaces. This design embraces a natural aesthetic that connects the interior with the environment. Green and brown tones add a sense of calm and groundedness, creating a cozy yet modern atmosphere in the kitchen.

The focus on silica-free engineered materials and eco-friendly finishes ensures that the design is environmentally conscious, providing high performance with minimal environmental impact. Additionally, sourcing materials with low VOCs and using energy-efficient lighting further enhances the sustainability of the kitchen. Cabinets will offer innovative storage solutions, including pull-out drawers, deep storage for pots and pans, and space for larger appliances. The inclusion of hidden storage behind the pocket doors will allow for a clutter-free workspace, which is especially important in an apartment with limited space.

This contemporary kitchen revamp transforms an apartment kitchen into a sophisticated, functional, and eco-conscious space. The use of green and brown cabinetry that extends to the ceiling provides both vertical drama and natural warmth, while the silica-free engineered bench tops and splash backs bring sustainability to the forefront. The result is a kitchen that feels both modern and timeless, grounded in nature yet luxurious and practical. The clever inclusion of pocket doors for the workstation and brass gold hardware elevates the design with a sense of luxury and refined simplicity.
