BEAUTIFUL REMODELLED
TOWNHOUSE
A beautiful be-spoke painted kitchen is the defining heart of this stunning remodelled 1930s townhouse, striking the perfect balance between period charm and contemporary architecture. Thoughtful colour, quality finishes and restrained detailing allow original character to breathe while new interventions read as confident, calm and current
Colour and texture
A colour palette that references the home’s era while feeling fresh, sophisticated tonal layering, walls in a subtle, warm neutral, cabinetry in a deeper, moodier hue, woodwork left in a soft eggshel, to create depth and cohesion between old and new.
Beautiful porcelain flooring with a slightly matt finish evoke period warmth and pair beautifully with the contemporary stone worksurfaces which complement the classic timeless cabinetry.
Beautiful cabinet making and quality paint finishes ensure longevity and tactile satisfaction
Clean, uncluttered lines for cabinetry incorporate traditional proportions, framed doors, ovolo Shaker-inspired profiles updated with seamless integrated handles bridge the two languages effortlessly.
A large central island with a recessed overhang and breakfast bar introduces contemporary social function while respecting the original room geometry.
Open shelving in measured runs prevents the scheme from feeling too fussy.
Architectural dialogue
Preserved and revealed original features, become design anchors. New interventions converse rather than compete, large pane slim-profile glazing, with subtle structural steel supports bring light and generosity without erasing the past.
Balanced scale, retain the human proportion of the 1930s rooms through generous ceiling heights and thoughtful lighting, while deploying contemporary scale in islands and pendant fittings to signal modern living.
Lighting and atmosphere
Layerer lighting, warm recessed downlights for general illumination, task lighting under cabinets, and statement pendants over the island to create focal warmth.
Lampshades and finishes that sit comfortably between eras — hand-blown glass, opaline shades and tapered pendants.
A beautifully painted kitchen in a remodelled 1930s house should feel both grounded and refined: sympathetic to original proportions and ornament yet unapologetically modern in function and restraint. When colour, material and form are chosen with regard for the house’s story, the kitchen becomes the seamless, sophisticated hinge between past and present.
