Cook's kitchen
A large, clear island ensures this kitchen, designed by Wonderful Kitchens, has plenty of space for preparing and serving meals
For someone who enjoys cooking, a clear benchtop to spread out, prepare and serve food is just as important as all the high-tech equipment and appliances.
The owners of this home wanted their new kitchen to be modern, but above all to have a large preparation area and servery.
To achieve this, kitchen designer Fred Tabet of Wonderful Kitchens proposed a large 2.7m x 1.2m central island without an overhang or a sink. Instead, the open-plan space includes a breakfast table close to the island, which is finished in the same dark veneer as kitchen cabinetry.
"The island gives them a large, clear area for food preparation, and guests and family can be close to the kitchen at the table," says Tabet.
To enhance the modern look, the walls behind the hob and the sink are finished with large full-height glass splashbacks.
Wonderful Kitchens has a successful 30-year track record of designing, manufacturing and installing kitchens, wardrobes, laundries and bathrooms.
