Additional furniture is an easy way to improve kitchen storage. The ‘Madia’

cabinet by Piero Lissoni for Boffi (above), from $29,990+GST, is a contemporary

take on an antique buffet. The weathered solid pine doors with burnished metal

frame conceal the sleek glass shelves and mirror internally, with enough space

to accommodate dinnerware for up to four people. boffistudio.com.au

the practical to the perfectly sublimthe practical to the perfectly sublime.e.

The Rose House (above) by Watts Studio

is a great example of the growing trend

for a scullery. The natural stone bench

can stay clear while the smaller space

beyond the engineered boards is the

real working space, and can be quickly

closed off when guests arrive. “Once

considered a luxury, a scullery has

become an essential inclusion on every

client’s list,” explains studio director

Felicity Watts. wattsstudio.com.au

Nothing was left to chance when it

came to storage in the Theydon Bois

project by British kitchen specialists

Humphrey Munson. This pantry

(above), cleverly positioned to the right

of the main cooking area, is as beautiful

on the inside as the outside: behind the

painted cabinet doors lie drawers and

shelves in a weathered oak finish. “It’s

understated luxury at its best,” said the

clients. humphreymunson.co.uk

Struggling for cupboard

space? These gadgets and

appliances — in subtle

shades of grey and white —

look good enough to leave out.
