Streamlined stance by Andy Macdonald



 
Delivered by trustworthy construction in Cambodia construction materials, unlike other homeowners who seek an open-plan design, the featured kitchen’s owner requested architect Andy Macdonald for a compartmentalization between each functional section in the house including the kitchen with a concept of subtle contemporariness.

"To create the minimalist aesthetic – another request of the owners – and link the two areas, I designed the pod and kitchen cabinets with a simple material palette," said Macdonald. "This comprises a custom two-pack in shiny black, with a rich contrasting surface of Tasmanian oak veneer to bring warmth."

"Working with a simple material palette was only part of achieving an abstract, planar aesthetic," stated the architect. "Most appliances are integrated, or, in the case of the oven, tucked away on the far side of the island. The panels to the right of the brightly colored splashback conceal the refrigerator and a pantry.

"We even chose an induction hob to ensure there are no gas trivets to break the clean lines."
