Designing a kitchen for elderly homeowners involves balancing functionality with aesthetic appeal. Our goal is to create a space that is not only beautiful but also practical and accessible for everyday use. Through thoughtful design, we ensure that treasured belongings are displayed, while storage remains safe and easy to access.
In this project, we integrated custom display cabinets with glass fronts, allowing homeowners to enjoy their cherished items without sacrificing practicality. Lowered cabinetry and reachable shelves ensure that everything remains within comfortable reach, making the kitchen user-friendly for all.
Features that Enhance Independence and Ease of Use:
Practical and Stylish Finishes: The kitchen design combines classic Shaker-style cabinetry in soft white, terrazzo-inspired benchtops, and glossy white splashbacks for a timeless yet chic aesthetic. These materials are chosen for both their durability and ease of cleaning.
Supportive and Accessible Design: We prioritize easy-to-use cabinetry and smart storage solutions, ensuring the space is functional without compromising on style.
Modern Technology for Convenience: Incorporating under-cabinet lighting, smart appliances, and touch controls enhances ease of use. These features are particularly beneficial in low-light conditions and for those with limited mobility.
Finishes in This Project:
Lighting: Under-cabinet LED lighting to improve visibility, enhancing independence.
Cabinetry: Classic Shaker-style in soft white for a timeless look.
Tiles: Grey and white patterned tiles, adding visual interest and texture.
Benchtop: Terrazzo-inspired surface for a modern touch.
Handles: Chrome knobs and pulls for a sleek, contemporary feel.
The result? A kitchen that blends beauty, functionality, and technology to create a space that supports both independence and style.
