Tailored Renovation: Redefining a Kitchen
At the heart of the "Haus K" project is a complete redesign that transforms an ordinary kitchen into a masterpiece of functionality and design. Our team from Faber & Sons Kitchen Manufacturing was tasked with creating a space that goes far beyond the confines of a standard kitchen setup.
The countertop, with its polished surface, is the centerpiece of this transformation. It not only adds depth to the room but also creates an optical enlargement of the space through its reflective properties. Combined with the matte black oak veneer, a fascinating interplay of shiny and matte surfaces emerges, giving the kitchen a timeless elegance. The meticulously handcrafted slatted fronts act like an elegant wall covering, cleverly concealing functional elements such as the refrigerator and a passage door to the pantry. This combination of aesthetic design and practical functionality underscores the high art of craftsmanship.
Behind the massive slats, both the refrigerator and a hidden passage door to the pantry are concealed.
With the highest craftsmanship, we have traditionally processed dovetailed wooden drawers.
Innovative Space Division for Maximum Functionality
A central element of our design is the cleverly designed room divider. It skillfully divides the kitchen into two functional zones: On one side is the cooking area with cooktop and sink, while on the other is an inviting seating bar. This bar is not only a place to linger, but seamlessly integrates a wine and coffee bar – a perfect example of the combination of aesthetics and functionality.
The tall cabinet side, which houses the refrigerator, contains another clever detail: a hidden door to the pantry. Thanks to the solid slatted bars, this wall side appears less like a typical kitchen wall and more like an elegant wall paneling. This emphasizes our approach to view each element of the kitchen not only as functional but also as an aesthetic design element.
