Kitchen renovation

A curved cream sofa, rounded armchairs and layered stone and glass tables create an open conversation area. The low furniture preserves views toward the staircase, upper gallery and secondary lounge.

The renovated entrance combines pale stone-look flooring, a stone console, abstract artwork and indoor planting. The opening ahead frames the dark stone staircase and the brighter double-height centre of the house.

Dark stone stair treads and clear glass balustrades form the principal architectural feature within the double-height hall. Full-height curtains diffuse daylight, while the amber glass pendant installation links the ground floor with the upper gallery.

The elevated view shows the relationship between the living room, dining area, kitchen and staircase. A large rug contains the curved seating group while broad circulation routes remain open around it.

The dining area is defined by a pale stone table, textured chairs and a custom oak shelving composition. Vertical fins and open shelves form a warm background between the living room and charcoal kitchen.

A long stone console, abstract artwork, sculptural table lighting and indoor planting give the entrance its identity... More

Lamat

In rural Wichelen, a detached house with a classic character received a thorough facelift. The crow-stepped gable, which was covered up because of moisture problems, was repaired and returned to its original state. Nothing else was touched on the outside, except the creation of new contrasting window openings at the rear of the house. The new, double-height window maximises the connection with the garden and the meadows behind, and distances itself from the neo-style through its size and detailing. Ypsilon Business Photography Ypsilon Business Photography Ypsilon Business Photography The most radical changes are found inside the house. The ceiling of the living space was removed to create a space that extends below the... More

Georgian Terrace House in South London

The kitchen and dining room are located in the basement of a Georgian house. Persistent dampness and a lack of natural light led to the recommendation of terrazzo flooring with a light-gray composition featuring white marble. The entire color palette was chosen in warm tones, complemented by open timber furniture structures. The clients expressed interest in refurbishing their dining set and purchasing shelves for the niches. Additionally, they asked for advice on what could blend well with the PLUCK Modern Kitchens style while maintaining an eclectic touch. Caption More

A carefully designed palette of hardscape introduced a balanced outdoor area, and a pool addition, lined with tiles from the historic Jackling House, designed by George Washington Smith and once owned by Steve Jobs, gave reason to further enjoy the southern California climate.A new two-story building, consisting of a garage on its first level and a private library on the second level, includes...
