From Fragmented to Family-Focused: A Collaborative Kitchen Transformation
Romina sought to convert a gloomy, walled-off space into a vibrant family hub. Goals included maximising light, creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow, and integrating clever storage—all achieved with minimal stress ahead of summer.
Design Solutions & Smart Execution
- Light Revolution: Oversized Velux windows and open-plan design erased the dark, boxy feel, creating an airy kitchen-diner.
- Child-Friendly Flow: Levelled garden access (no steps) and sightlines from the kitchen island allow supervision of kids playing outside or by the paddling pool.
- Hidden Practicality: A pocket-door toilet under the stairs and utility room with overhead pulley system kept clutter out of sight.
- Collaborative Kitchen: Romina designed the layout; Greater Space expertly fitted handleless cabinetry and ensured seamless indoor-outdoor dining with future BBQ zones.
Results That Spark Daily Joy
- Summer-Ready Living: Completed in time for summer, the space now hosts family meals with garden views and plans for alfresco entertaining.
- Stress-Free Build: Despite Romina’s initial anxieties, the team’s efficiency and problem-solving (e.g., garden levelling) minimised disruption.
- Double the Space, Half the Clutter: The 3m x 5m extension feels larger than expected, with dedicated zones for cooking, dining, and laundry.
- Future-Proof Flexibility: Separate sitting room offers quiet retreats, while the open layout adapts for playdates or dinner parties.
“Greater Space transformed our dark house into a bright, joyful home. The Velux windows flooded it with light, and the child-friendly garden access is a dream. They turned our stress into pure relief!””
