This young and vibrant family wanted an open plan space where they could cook, see their children play and interact whilst they were in the kitchen, a social space to cook for friends / family and be part of the conversation at the same time. We designed the perfect over sized banquette seating to maximise the number of guests in addition to conventional dining chairs, the perfect balance in every way. Adding mirrors helped soften the open plan feel allowing softness and movement throughout the day and evening.
