Do you want a fabulous kitchen that flows from indoors to out with lots of sociable eating and entertaining areas? Here it is!
WATCH: Part 1 of the kitchen makeover
Inside you can enjoy family sized breakfast bar and when it’s warm you can open up the bi-fold windows, head outside and sit at the servery or cafe-style tables. And why not invite your friends over? There’s room for everyone!
1. Palette
A beautifully designed kitchen doesn’t have to cost the earth. This sleek flat-pack from Kaboodle has tons of storage and style. Team dark cabinets in Grey Spice with bamboo benchtops and black accents – taps, pendants and accessories – for a modern ‘eatery’ look.
2. Lighting
An industrial-style outdoor light perfectly complements the style of the reno. Find it at Beacon Lighting.
3. Servery
The extra-long window bench is big enough to use as a dining table. The pendants close to the clever bi-folds throw light both inside and out, and using the same bamboo as the benchtops creates a seamless flow in design.
4. Breakfast bar
If your kitchen has dead space, look at extending part of the benchtop to create a breakfast bar. Using a dark colour and timber throughout creates a cafe vibe and a unified design.
5. Tapware
You have to love a slender pull-out tap – it makes washing pots so easy! Consider an integrated dishwasher to give your kitchen a seamless – and more expensive – look. And if you’re creating a servery, add a bi-fold window so that the panes of glass stack neatly, to create more space.
6. Tiles
Give simple white subway tiles a free, clever and distinctive style upgrade by laying them in a herringbone pattern and using grey grout to make them pop!
7. Add greenery
Decorative plants hanging from a timber frame bring the outside in and add extra flow to the space.
