Behind the façades of several merged old buildings on a busy street in Breda, a light and tranquil living world unfolds.
The kitchen forms a central place within it: spacious and soft in appearance, designed for residents who love to cook, have drinks and entertain. Large windows draw the daylight deep inside and bring the nuances of the materials to life.
The U-shaped island is executed entirely in ceramic with a marble-like pattern. The apparent simplicity demands precise coordination: from the plinth to the fronts, via the handle profiles to the worktop, the veining continues along the main sightlines as much as possible. With this shape in particular, that is a technical challenge. The result is an island that presents itself as one sculptural volume, with a lively surface that gives character to the calm base.
The cabinet wall in Anodic Brown lacquer adds warmth and depth. Sliding doors give the coffee niche a place within the whole, without it being overly present. A mirror and the wine climate cabinet bring variety to the large wall. The wabi-sabi lamp, part of the plan from the very first design, connects the kitchen to the soft atmosphere of the interior. The bar stools, in turn, create a subtle relationship with the Andy Warhol artwork elsewhere in the home.
At the bar there is plenty of room for company, even while cooking. The result is a kitchen in which refined details and daily use come together naturally: a calm place with an open, welcoming character.
