MARCH 4, 2019.

Light-reflective surfaces proved the game-changer in a budget-friendly

renovation of a gloomy Federation home.

Creative interiors trio, Casey Scott, Matt Crocker and Scott Ligertwood,

of Kinwolf Projects knew they needed a monochromatic colour scheme

of white on white to invest more light in the kitchen, but at the same

time acknowledged the need to push the boundaries in terms of form

and finish.

The key feature in the kitchen, that transforms the space from ordinary

to extraordinary, is the curved wall. Shaped from bendable tongue and

groove plywood and finished with a two-pack polyurethane spray, the

simple curve corals a wealth of hidden storage, plus a laundry, while

creating a jaw-dropping focal point to the space.

The same white surface finish is applied to the rest of the kitchen

cabinetry but again, there is a wow factor that elevates the look to one

of textural wizardry. Caesarstone’s Cloudburst Concrete, with its subtle

movement and light-reflective matt texture, has been used on the rear

workbench as well as the large-scale island bench and splashbacks.

“It’s the texture of Cloudburst concrete that we fell in love with,” said

Casey Scott. “It has almost a salty acid-wash kind of feel to it. It’s the

first time we have used Caesarstone and I think it’s the best benchtop

we have ever used.”

While maximising both light and space, the Kinwolf team were keen to

ensure the space was neither sterile nor bland. Natural timber was

used to create a counter balance to the white – open storage boxes,

chopping boards and utensils and stool tops reference the warm

timber tones of the flooring. And the subtle layers of texture and patina

in the Caesarstone Cloudburst Concrete ‘softens’ the mix of hard

surfaces and monochromatic colour palette.

Caesarstone’s Cloudburst Concrete is part of the brand’s new

Metropolitan Collection of nine concrete-inspired finishes that are

available nationally. Go to www.caesarstone.com.au for more details.
