A very long open-plan living space is a key feature of this house designed by Michael Mansvelt of Plantation Design House in New Plymouth. The shape of the room was perfect for the new Glen Johns kitchen chosen by the owner. This galley-style kitchen incorporates a long bank of timber cabinets and an equally long Corian-topped island. The timber table at one end slides back into the island so it is completely out of sight.
