The kitchen is the heart of this modern home with concrete flooring designed by Larissa Johnston architects. The kitchen module is made fully out of plywood and extends into built-in storage and a stairway all at the same time.

Plywood, concrete, and stainless steel kitchen

The combination of the warm plywood, with the cool concrete flooring, and the stainless steel countertop and backsplash results in a fresh, modern, and interesting combination. The kitchen module is built all the way up to the ceiling, which allows for ample storage space.

A white dining area

Since the plywood kitchen module itself adds a lot of texture and warmth to the space, a white dining table combined with white CH24 wishbone chairs works wonderfully to complement both the plywood and the concrete flooring.

When you walk up the stairs behind the kitchen, you are greeted with a custom-built plywood desk solution with integrated storage for documents. This module complements the stairs and kitchen module in a lovely way and I love the way it has all been integrated into one cohesive design language.
