The Silverleaf
Residence.
Turning a 1990s compartmentalized floorplan into an open culinary axis.
The transformation
Clear the centre
of the home.
Drag across the join to compare the old enclosed kitchen with the new open plan.
The architectural friction
“The original kitchen was isolated from the dining terrace by two load-bearing partition walls, leaving the preparation space without the morning light it needed.”
The resolution
“A flush structural beam removed the centre divide. A fourteen-foot island now lines up with the eastern windows, while the working mess disappears into a concealed scullery.”
Material dossier
The details
hold their own.
Honed finish with a bookmatched waterfall return.
Custom cabinetry in a hand-waxed matte finish.
A living finish that settles into the room over time.
Soft-close pantry transitions with gentle concealment.
