KITCHEN DESIGN SYDNEY

Kitchen layout does the hard work

...to make it easier for the chef.

We design flow, not just finishes

Functionality around how you live

No two households use their kitchen in the same way. Some families cook together. Others need a kitchen to support entertaining, busy mornings, working from home or large gatherings on weekends.

A successful kitchen renovation starts by questioning the existing layout. We make your kitchen layout and storage work for you, so that you need to work less in the kitchen.

We consider lighting, movement, preparation areas, seating, storage and circulation to create a functional kitchen that feels easy to use. Then we add thoughtful details that improve your daily use, such as drawer configurations, pantry layouts, appliance integration and specialised storage solutions.

And the cherry on top: You will have an opportunity to experience the new layout yourself before starting the build, both on a 3D design tool and in real life.

WHY WORK WITH AN INTERIOR DESIGNER

We look beyond the kitchen itself

Kitchen is not a secondary space. Kitchen is the place where people naturally gather, whether planned or not. It shapes the way we spend time together each day. You can’t isolate it from the rest of the home.

Unlike a kitchen company solely focused on cabinetry and appliances in an expected footprint, we approach the kitchen as the heart of the home. We consider how it connects to living and dining rooms, and the circulation and sightlines to the rest of the house. Sometimes changing the orientation or layout can improve how the entire home feels and functions.

DURABLE, PRACTICAL AND CAREFULLY CONSIDERED

Materials for daily living

Kitchens are heavy-use areas, so material selection needs to balance aesthetics with durability and ease of maintenance.

We consider heat, spills, scratches, UV exposure and everyday wear when selecting materials and finishes.

Cabinetry, benchtops, splashbacks, appliances, tapware and hardware selections are all finalised before construction begins and remain easily accessible through your online project tool, giving the builder and joiner clear direction from the outset.

INDIVIDUAL KITCHENS, NEVER FORMULAIC

Personal design with warmth and character

Your kitchen should feel reflective of your personal style and connected to the character of your home. Some projects suit natural textures and restrained palettes, while others call for richer materials and stronger colours.

The focus is always on creating kitchens with warmth, personality and longevity rather than following short-lived trends.

Guidance throughout the renovation process

Construction support

Kitchen renovations often involve decisions during construction, particularly in older Sydney homes where unexpected conditions can arise once work begins.

If required, we offer a Project Consultation Service where we liaise with the builder and trades – whether yours or our trusted tradespeople - throughout the renovation. This helps ensure that the important design details are carried through. And best of all, you won’t need to deal with the renovation stress.

Different families, different kitchens

Kitchens that reflect your style of cooking

“Sari has designed and managed these projects with commitment and flair. I particularly appreciate her attention to detail. Everything just works – the colours and patterns, storage and flow of each room. A great testament is that almost every day our family talks about something we like and enjoy about the renovated rooms. And no, we wouldn’t change a thing!”

“The kitchen reno has transformed our home and how we live. What was a tiny, dark space has opened up to become a beautiful light, airy and calm space to cook, eat, entertain and relax together with family and friends.”

“Sari was extremely patient during my procrastination and occasional change of mind. Once we got into the execution of design, Sari used artisans to build furniture and highly skilled and careful tradesmen to achieve the final result – one which I am delighted with.”

“I engaged INSIDESIGN to help remodel a terrace I’d just purchased in Leichhardt. – – Sari did a wonderful job redesigning the kitchen and each of the three bedrooms, and specifying some fabulous custom joinery. I had fears that the dream project could turn into a nightmare, but in fact it has been a great pleasure working with Sari.”
