Situated in a house undergoing an extension, this rustic shaker-style kitchen seamlessly blends old and new, staying true to the home’s theme while introducing modern elements.

This kitchen delicately balances the Rimu benchtop, bringing a warm and inviting ambiance to the space, with the luxurious shaker-style Dezignatek cabinets in rich Fjiord colour. The choice of Rimu adds a touch of nostalgia while remaining consistent with the rustic theme. The benchtop’s Satin Resin finish not only enhances its visual appeal but also ensures its longevity, making it a functional work of art.


Incorporating a bifolding pantry door with a benchtop running inside is a stroke of genius. This unique feature not only maximises space but also adds a touch of convenience and innovation to the kitchen. It’s a testament to designer Victoria Houchen’s ingenuity in creating a kitchen that marries form and function seamlessly.

With its impeccable cabinets, inviting timber benchtop, and innovative design elements, this timeless country kitchen serves as a warm and welcoming backdrop for life’s cherished moments.
