Integral sinks have grooves carved into the adjacent worksurface so crockery can drip dry. The spacious kitchen also has speakers installed in the ceilings to create a social hub.

The steam oven and capacious warming drawer match the main oven. The steam oven is mostly used for cooking vegetables, rice and fish, but it can also prove dough, defrost frozen food and operate as a second, conventional oven if required.

The fridge freezer has been built into the cabinetry for a sleek look. Its double doors open to a 90cm width, so large platters can easily be stored.

Space within this slim cabinet is maximised with several clear-sided, pull-out shelves that are sturdy enough to hold bottles and jars, and are easily accessible.

The chrome tap swivels to serve either sink and has a simple, single-lever mechanism to control both flow and temperature. Its spout incorporates a retractable spray hose for rinsing large pans and cleaning the pair of sinks.

Tall, folding glass doors fill the room with natural light and turn the country view into one of the kitchen's most attractive aspects. Wrapped in chunky Corian, the island is both a design feature and central to the function of the kitchen.

A modern table complements the bold chairs, while pale flooring emphasises the generous space. Steel supports in the walls slightly reduced the width of the kitchen, so the island required careful positioning to allow the flow of movement.
