A Warm, Contemporary Kitchen for a Family Home in Murrumbeena

We reworked the kitchen of this Murrumbeena family home, opening it up to the hallway and reshaping the space as a light-filled galley with a laundry nook at the far end. The original skylight was kept and now anchors the room.

Full-height white shaker joinery keeps the space calm and makes the most of the ceiling height, with brass handles adding warmth and a touch of luxury. Matte black tapware, integrated appliances and a crisp white benchtop sit against the natural timber floor, so the kitchen feels refined and welcoming at the same time. The photographs show the room before work began, through demolition and plastering, to the finished space.
