Introducing the uplifting and freshly renovated Puriri Residence kitchen. A space which brings a breath of fresh air and calming presence to a character filled villa. Double french doors flood the room with natural light and your attention is immediately drawn to the kitchen.

The natural marble benchtop is the hero of the space. Fully surrounded by stone, the island stands proudly in the centre of the kitchen, almost like a sculptural piece. Its veining is fluid and tonal. Choosing the right benchtop is one of the most important decisions when designing a kitchen and I believe the natural marble in this project achieves the perfect balances of drama and softness.
