“I worked closely with my client’s interior designer to create a kitchen makeover that complemented the art deco style used elsewhere in the apartment,” dbm designer Tracy. “My clients love gold and black tonings and we incorporated these in the granite benchtop and also in the kitchen cabinetry.”

The result is an eyecatching kitchen that radiates personality.

“For such a one-off kitchen, unique finishes were required to create its bold look,” said Tracy. “To achieve the unusual finish on the timber cabinetry doors, I had them painted gold with a walnut stain applied over the top. They were then rubbed back to reveal the gold colouring and finished with an ultra high gloss polyurethane to add a mirror-like sheen.”

Kitchen cabinets were tailored to match the specific storage requirements of the owners.

“Like all my kitchen designs, the finish on this is meticulous,” said Tracy. “It’s a very tactile kitchen that makes you want to touch all its surfaces.”

The owners are thrilled with the result.

“There was not much room to work with so I needed to be clever with how I arranged the kitchen and the design of storage areas,” said Tracy. “The owners love coming home to it and visually, it integrates perfectly with the other living spaces within the apartment.”

Tracy designs Sydney’s most luxurious kitchens.

She can design a kitchen to match your particular style and space, ensuring your kitchen renovation delivers an end result you’ll love.

This penthouse apartment in the Sydney CBD features many angled walls, making it unsuitable for most pre-built storage options.

dbm helped our client to overcome these challenges by designing custom joinery that flatters the apartment’s interesting angles, makes a great use of all existing space and matches the opulent interior design style of the rest of the apartment.

In the photo below, a bespoke desk in walnut timber frames the study. A diagonal bookcase fits into an angled wall and makes a great design feature.

Elsewhere in the apartment, we designed a custom built-in wardrobe to match the specific items it would house.

Featuring fine craftsmanship, it is styled to match the French boudoir theme of the room.

The mirrored panels capture the light and views outside and the internal storage reflects the different height and space requirements of stored items.

If you would like to discuss how custom joinery can create a better use of space in your interior renovation project, we would be pleased to help.
