CABIN fever

Contemporary kitchens tend to be the domain of hard, cool materials such as metal, glass and laminate, but this space proves that it’s possible to combine a cosy, cabin-like feel with the functional, clean-lined minimalism of a modern space. Sleek finishes and fine craftsmanship are the secret to success here, and prevent its oak-wrapped ceiling and walls straying into ski-chalet territory, while Arabescato and green marble and bronze-fronted cabinets add a luxe edge.
