The client's desire for a large aquarium was the main focus for this area. Gemma Zimmerhansl designed the aquarium and the entire space with this in mind, locating it so that it is visible from all areas of the ground floor. The bespoke contemporary kitchen was designed by Gemma, in a neutral monochromatic colour scheme. The clean lines of the white high gloss lacquer cabinetry and white Caesarstone worktops are set off beautifully against the black fridge structure and the black Venetian plaster finish on the aquarium cladding, along with the black dining table and Tulip chairs. The monochromatic scheme is punctuated by the vibrant colours of the fish and green plant life in the aquarium, which are reflected in the colours and movement of the abstract painting, commissioned specifically with this brief in mind. The feeling of light and space is enhanced by the reflective quality of the metallic ceramic tiles on the floor, which were also installed as the splash back above the sink area.
The downdraft extractor in the island means that the client can enjoy the full view of the gardens while cooking, as there is no extractor hood obstructing the view.
