Above: Limestone tiles provide an
elegant floor surface to complement
the Corian surfaces and Navurban
veneer. The barbecue area mirrors
the indoor perimeter cabinetry – a
cavity slider that doubles as a
splashback can be drawn aside to
create a servery window between
the indoor and outdoor kitchens.

And the kitchen has a strong connection to
the outdoor barbecue area, too. A cavity slider
splashback window draws back out of sight to
create a servery out to the al fresco cooking area.
“The owners also wanted the kitchen to
have extended sightlines to the outdoors so only
the wall cabinetry in this ground floor area is
above waste height.”
Due to the broad use of the veneer and
Corian the kitchen has a warm, natural appeal.
However, it also creates a minimalist aesthetic
through touches like the recessed handles on
the cabinets and the wrap-around countertops,
which simplify the cabinet forms even further.
“The benchtops aren’t strictly waterfall,”
says de Rozario. “At a closer look, the chunky
sides are matched with a slim benchtop that is
separated from them visually by a 4mm join.”
And the kitchen is as hard-working as it is
well connected. Despite presenting a simple face
to the dining area it includes a generous scullery
at the rear, a cellar, a coffee station, large prep
areas and the usual complement of appliances.
