Situated in the Adelaide Hills, surrounded by towering gum trees and the Onkaparinga River, this stunning kitchen, home to Kate and Stephen, is gloriously light and nature filled.

Project Profile
The design of the home has the kitchen flowing effortlessly into the pantry behind, which in turn flows through to the laundry. While all three areas are open, there is a distinct shift when moving between them, as the colour palettes subtly lighten.

The Palette
‘Green and black was always a strong theme in the design brief’ explains Kate, and the dark palette comes off effortlessly, balanced by light splashback tiles and open shelves filled with warm and neutral tones. Flowing through to the pantry, the benchtops move from dark and to light, and the green cabinetry softens. ‘I love the colour palette – the tones that change’ says Kate.
The Function
The design is highly functional. The kitchen is minimalist; focussed on clean lines, and a large island made for entertaining. ‘We do a lot of entertaining; it is definitely the hub that everybody gravitates to’ says Kate.
The Pantry
The pantry is easily accessible and provides plenty of storage, as Kate explains ‘it is where all of the magic happens, it needs to look good, but also be highly functional’.
The Laundry
Continuing the openness of the home’s overall design and flow, the laundry is concealed behind the pantry for easy access. The delicate and organic green-grey of Laminex Seed is carried through to keep the two spaces clean and cohesive.
‘We had a really good customer experience with Farquhar’ says Kate, a global retail manager herself. She and Stephen had a strong idea of what they wanted, and working with Farquhar helped to bring that dream to life.
"The showroom is exceptional; it gives everybody great ideas, and there is a great offering of variety, and for the renovation the onsite team are ten out of ten."
