In the lively centre of a large, charming town, the history of a classic city villa was recently brought back to life.
The home from 1907 was thoroughly renovated for this purpose, restoring the building's rich historical shell to its former glory.
The original dining room was transformed into a large living kitchen which, through its chosen position, arrangement and design, forms the centrepiece of the stylishly renovated whole. The residents love spending time here with family and friends, enjoying a wonderful dinner or relaxed drinks at the bar or the adjacent dining table. They praise the kitchen for, among other things, its beautiful forms and materials, which merge into a furniture element with a luxurious, stately and classic appearance that fits the style of the home perfectly. Thanks to the integration of many ingenious features, the residents experience unprecedented cooking, dining and entertaining pleasure here every day.
The residents were sold the moment they saw the classic city villa. A large-scale renovation was needed, however, to make the home meet all their wishes. Creating a large, centrally located living kitchen was a key starting point for the renovation. “For a while we had a house abroad where the kitchen was positioned in the middle of the home,” the residents explain. “We liked this so much that we wanted the same for our house in the Netherlands. At a fair we were introduced to Culimaat and one of their beautiful kitchens. We were immediately impressed by the high-end appearance, the extensive detailing and the unique design and materials. This was exactly what we had in mind! We then drove on to the showroom in Berlicum. There our good feeling was confirmed and we decided to commission Culimaat to design and realise a kitchen that fully meets our expectations.”
The residents love extensive cooking and dining, which is why a large rangetop (hob) was chosen, among other things. The extraction is integrated into a generous rack above the island, which is also a beautiful eye-catcher. Especially in combination with the lighting and the many special details, a beautiful overall picture has emerged that fits perfectly within its stately, classic context.
The residents on the collaboration with Culimaat: “We had a wonderful process from start to finish. There was a good click between us, which made every contact a pleasure. It has truly become a statement element in our home where we love spending time; exactly what we had in mind!”
