Project Overview
This Manly renovation channels classic Hamptons elegance with a distinctly Australian beach-house feel. The owners wanted a timeless kitchen that honored their federation home while offering every modern convenience.
The Challenge
The existing kitchen had lost its charm with cheap renovations from previous owners. The family wanted to restore character without sacrificing modern ergonomics.
Our Solution
Marcus Henderson and the team designed bespoke profiled cabinets in crisp white, paired with marble-look engineered stone countertops and a traditional butler sink. Glass-fronted display cabinets showcase heirloom glassware, while deep pull-out drawers hide modern clutter.
