At Christmas time we all like to show people how much we care by buying them a gift they will love. When a husband buys his wife a gift, he not only wants it to show his love and adoration for her but knows a gift a woman will love is a useful gift. Buying underwear is very useful, but it’s been done a million times. A massage or facial is always nice and makes a woman feel brand new, but there might be something else she wants brand new this year that will keep on giving every day.

Christmas Lunch Prepared with Ease

By knowing how much work is done in Brisbane kitchens by all members of the household, you would know how much time is spent here. And when Christmas day rolls around, it’ll get busier. For those who are preparing a traditional meal for Christmas lunch you can spend a whole morning organising, preparing and cooking. Even if you opt for cold meats and salads, there are still some work to be done. It would be safe to say that if a member of the household had a nice new, spacious and workable kitchen to prepare food in, the task would be so much more enjoyable and easier. With everything in perfect, working condition, and the work spaces set out just right to make cooking a breeze, wouldn’t this be the best Christmas gift you have ever presented?

Planning For Your Christmas Present To Be Built

If you choose a kitchen design team who is committed to helping you achieve the kitchen of your partner’s dreams for Christmas, their delight at your gift is ensured. When you are ready, you will be shown around the showroom so you can discuss with our expert consultants what you had in mind. This would be a good time to spring your gift idea and take your significant other with you to choose options as well. An experienced consultant will take note of your preferences and then an appointment will be made where a kitchen designer will come to your home to inspect the area. Once your kitchen design is created and finalised, you can make the decision to go ahead with renovating your kitchen. From here you will go through the kitchen installation phase and you will be appointed a team of meticulous installers and tradies who will work to complete your kitchen within a day, except where stone bench tops are required.

Your happy Christmas starts where the kitchen renovations end. You will now have a kitchen to be proud of and enjoy every day of the year.

Homeowners are now looking for ways to maximise their living space. Many are now opening their kitchen up to nearby rooms and to the outdoors, taking advantage of the space in surrounding areas. And when these clients came to us for their first design appointment, they indicated that they were wanting to open up their kitchen area & were even happy to remove the entry wall into the kitchen. The client wanted to make sure that her family can enjoy a spacious kitchen.

Removing one wall can bring out the best in the whole kitchen feel and design. The removal of this wall opened up the space, incredibly, and that saw us develop a number of designs that would all work. What wonders one less wall can bring in design opportunities. It also provided a massive improvement over the original 1980’s kitchen. Not that this was difficult, as the original kitchen was so cramped and fragmented in design. Sticking to its 80’s theme, it featured blue laminate benchtops and the client wasn’t sure how she managed to raise her family with such little benchspace and storage!

It was time for a change. We worked with the client on various kitchen designs and, in the end, the design featuring an open plan design with an island bench was selected. The design enabled two entry points, which was great as her boys becoming young adults, were becoming more and more involved in the everyday cooking.

The open plan design enabled us to incorporate a wall opposite the kitchen. In the same space, we fit a large double door pantry (with internal pull outs), a large double door fridge provision, and an additional appliance nook with open shelving for cookbooks. Perfect for a built-in microwave convection oven or storage of other kitchen appliances.

The client was so pleased with all this extra storage and bench space. With a large open plan kitchen, this meant that we could also now satisfy her final request. She was excited to fit a 90cm freestanding stainless steel stove.

When it came to the style, the client chose a shaker style door in a fresh classic white tone. It was then finished with timber laminate benchtops which complemented the freshly polished timber floors.

Most apartments are equipped with a stock standard square look. A unit on the 21st floor was no different. When our Craftbuilt Kitchens designer, Justine, came in, she found that the existing kitchen was built within 4 walls with only one small entryway. It was going to be an extensive project. Further assessment of the space included plumbing and air conditioner ducts that were positioned in several locations which restricted the simplicity of the design.

The clients wanted their Brisbane apartment kitchen to achieve a stylish modern look with ample storage, modern functionality and a streamline finish. It was going to become a highly functional kitchen with maximum storage. At the same time, it was going to be a stunning focal point for a new open plan living area. This kind of lay-out provides the look and feel of a wider living space. Craftbuilt’s clients were also looking for a unique feature to make it their own with a touch of class.

To accommodate this, Justine designed the unique box mitred features, which border the two ends of the kitchen, and tie in beautifully with the feature colour on the wall of tall cabinetry.

The particular fridge chosen by the clients was extremely deep and they did not want to impede on any walk space.  The design allowed for a new nib wall which externally looked like an extension to the hallway. It internally increased the footprint of the kitchen and allowed a step back in the wall to house the fridge’s depth without any impact to the walk space around the kitchen whatsoever.

And what a transformation to the entire living space! It was definitely far from the original stock standard square kitchen they knew.

The clients today proudly admit that anyone visiting their unit for the first time without fail always comment favourably on their stunning kitchen. To date, these clients have already had seven kitchen projects built and designed by Craftbuilt Kitchens. Four of which were for their own homes. Some were for real estate sales in Brisbane. Every time they sell off their home, they commend that the beautiful cabinetry of the kitchen were major assets to the sale.
