A subtle industrial feel has been achieved in this kitchen with a stainless steel worktop that seamlessly incorporates a gas hobs. Draws are made from Parapan acrylic in a light grey high gloss finish, keeping the entire look, fresh and bright. We supplied bespoke built-in shelving in a walnut veneer finish, providing a great contrast to the bright walls and cleverly highlighting the original arch. David Giles

This is an example of a medium sized contemporary u-shaped open plan kitchen in Melbourne with composite countertops, glass sheet splashback, white cabinets, ceramic flooring, an island, an integrated sink, raised-panel cabinets and stainless steel appliances.

The island incorporates a wine storage unit, microwave and a combination of shallow and full-depth units, with an overhang at the end to serve as a breakfast bar

All the units along the two walls (L shape) are in white with Birch plywood trim. To provide some contrast, the island is in blue. The hob is inset in the island, so when you are cooking, you can chat to anyone sitting on the stools or in the dining area. Photographer: Altan Omer

Our brief was to create a calm, modern country kitchen that avoided cliches - and to intrinsically link to the garden. A weekend escape for a busy family who come down to escape the city, to enjoy their art collection, garden and cook together. The design springs from my neuroscience research and is based on appealing to our hard wired needs, our fundamental instincts - sociability, easy movement, art, comfort, hearth, smells, readiness for visitors, view of outdoors and a place to eat. The key design innovation was the use of soft geometry, not so much in the planning but in the three dimensionality of the furniture which grows out of the floor in an organic way. The soft geometry is in the profile of the pieces, not in their footprint. The users can stroke the furniture, lie against it and feel its softness, all of which helps the visitors to kitchen linger and chat. The fireplace is located in the middle between the cooking zone and the garden. There is plenty of room to draw up a chair and just sit around. The fold-out doors let the landscape into the space in a generous way, especially on summer days when the weather makes the indoors and outdoors come together. The sight lines from the main cooking and preparation island offer views of the garden throughout the seasons, as well as people coming into the room and those seating at the table - so it becomes a command position or what we call the sweet spot. This often results in there being a family competition to do the cooking. The woods are Canadian Maple, Australian rosewood and Eucalyptus. All appliances are Gaggenau and Fisher and Paykel.
