While intended to function as a kitchen the clients still wanted something that looked more like a custom piece of joinery than your run of the mill kitchen especially since the space could be viewed from all main areas of the apartment.

Art deco refurb

Our favourite art deco refurb in leafy Woollahra. This two bed unit was a time warp back to when it was first built in the 1930's complete with green shag pile carpet & wall paper on every wall.

We took this unit and stripped it back to its bare bones. The wall between kitchen and living room was removed to create the open plan living that so many of us prefer in this era. This allowed us to create a cohesive layout between kitchen, dining and living that opened up and gave a sense of space in an otherwise modestly sized unit.

Even though the unit was stripped back, we still valued the bones it had and it's art deco heritage. We painstakingly removed the double cornice in the ceiling and got it remolded to carry through into the kitchen and dining area now that the wall had been removed.

Modern kitchen with a palette of natural materials like carrara marble and black timber veneers, engineered timber flooring were used to complement the art deco features of the apartment.

The panelled joinery in the bathroom and bedroom further enhance this and the striking dark paint colour against the crisp white skirting and detailed ceilings make the space sing.
