Langwarrin Kitchen: a monochromatic beauty, bursting with features & personality
Posted by Toni Collins | VR Art Glass - Projects, VR Blog | No CommentsAs a Professional Painter, Peter has the opportunity to see the interiors of many homes and kitchens. Consequently, he knows what appeals to him, along with having a clear vision of the colours and finishes that will endure the test of time. So when it came time for the couple behind this renovation to plan their own sparkling new kitchen – a classic black & white palette for finishes was confidently selected.
The elegant simplicity of this black & white kitchen is stunning, and while these strong foundations for the design may have been more than enough for some…there is more!
The kitchen offers surprises and the assertion of an adventurous personality – delivered by a number of well-chosen features.
Kitchen features include:
1. The ‘Fire Stone’ Granite on the island bench gives a raw, textural, sensory finish that is heaven.
2. The tap not only looks like a piece of beautiful metal sculpture… running water features a light which changes colour in sync with the water temperature. Providing some fun – and it is mesmerising too!
3. A sneaky butlers pantry sliding panel (a section of the splashback) – keeps the kitchen ‘front of house’ clutter free, while the ‘back of house’ engine room of food storage and preparation is neatly tucked out of sight. Genius!
4. The VR Art Glass splashback featuring artwork Melbourne Mono # 8 – looks fantastic. “Yes of course… you would say that…”, you may be thinking… but it is true!
VR Art Glass splashback featuring artwork Melbourne Mono # 8
The photographic artwork created by Michael Collins captures the energy and urban pulse of our vital city. It showcases Melbourne’s eloquent mix of modern and historic architecture. And while the visual has a modern edge – the black and white presentation affords the artwork a timeless quality. Melbourne Mono # 8 fits in perfectly with this sleek and elegant kitchen.
Very successful choices have been made for this kitchen and the end result is a delight. But enough of what we think… this is what Peter had to say about the experience of working with Visual Resource for the kitchen splashback,
Hi Michael and Toni,
It is with great pleasure that I send this message to let you know how fantastic our splashback has come up. Even though we threw a big challenge to you by having the splashback in three pieces to accommodate the sliding window to the butler’s pantry, the job has come up perfect. Nobody has noticed it is in three pieces until we slide the window up. Your attention to detail is second to none.
Thank you Peter. We are thrilled you are happy with your new VR Art Glass splashback.
Toni
