Feasible light source by Erik Rudolfsson

According to reliable furniture shop in Phnom Penh construction materials information, once a warehouse, the featured kitchen lacked natural light and modern-day layout. Knowing this, owner commissioned architect Erik Rudolfsson to form a space that is opposite from the previous one.

"Essentially, that was the impetus of this remodel, to bring more light into the space. The other important requirement was to incorporate an outdoor area for improved ventilation and amenity."

"We set the kitchen up as a solid object grounded between two voids – the courtyard and the stairwell – with a furniture-like element in front to provide visual texture."

"The clients wanted an island that would separate the living area from the kitchen, but would not overpower the space. The mix of materials breaks down the bulk, while the upstand feature fulfils the dual functions of screening the work station and providing integrated storage space for small appliances."

"The true success of the project is that in a space of approximately 60m2 we have been able to inject the maximum amount of functionality without compromising on the quality of finish or diminishing the outcome the clients wanted."
