Wood is a defining material of this style with timber cabinetry at its<br />
core. Comfortable and warm, this is a look that we are all familiar<br />
with as homeliness is essential to its success. Traditional kitchens<br />
usually boast a corner feature making the parts of the kitchen look<br />
like individual pieces of furniture as opposed to cohesive units.<br />
The KiWi KiTchen<br />
While internationally we may not have forged an aesthetic<br />
synonymous with the title ‘a Kiwi kitchen’, the way in which we use<br />
our kitchens is uniquely ours. Over the years we have modified<br />
Italian al fresco dining, shaping it into something of our own. The<br />
proximity of our kitchens to our barbecues and outdoor living areas<br />
has become an integral part of our architecture and our kitchen<br />
designs often reflect this.<br />

Similar in look and feel to a traditional aesthetic, a country-style<br />
kitchen takes detail to a greater level. Whether you prefer a French<br />
provincial flair, English country chintz, or a rural farmhouse design,<br />
characteristics of the country kitchen include a painted finish on<br />
grooved cabinetry, detailed mouldings and an oversized oven or<br />
AGA. Soft neutrals and timber, work effortlessly together to achieve<br />
this look, and you can’t go past a butler’s sink.<br />

Not so long ago the contemporary kitchen was all about curves<br />
and soft edges, then we moved towards a preference for angular,<br />
sharper lines, before curves came back into fashion. Now the<br />
contemporary kitchen is about embracing a combination of textures<br />
to achieve an air of drama and sophistication. Think brushed<br />
metal tapware, paired with glossy cabinetry behind which hide the<br />
appliances. Streamlined, uncluttered and linear. Touches of wood<br />
bring warmth, and lighting is often used to highlight an architectural<br />
element rather than just for ambience or function. The modern<br />
or contemporary kitchen boasts up-to-date colours and materials,<br />
state-of-the-art appliances and the latest design features on the<br />
market. It is a look that can date quickly as trends and fads surpass<br />
each other.<br />

The industrial kitchen has been around for a while and it is one that<br />
works hand-in-hand with a minimalist aesthetic – so if you like to<br />
have lots of knick-knacks on display, this style is not for you.<br />
