A minimalist kitchen is a great way to bring some balance and ease into daily life. This kitchen is a prime example of keeping things simple, yet fresh with its light and airy vibe and clutter-free space.

Grace Dear, the designer behind this beautiful kitchen has created this tranquil space by combining soft, light colours and working with the natural lighting of the room. As per the customer’s request, she has incorporated shaker and country styles in this classic kitchen.

While the design of this kitchen is simple, it remains pleasing to the eye. This is due to the clean-cut cabinetry in beautiful Dezigna White texture. A splash-back of white brick wall ceramic tiles gives the kitchen added character while also adding the benefit of hassle-free cleaning.

A scullery slots perfectly into this already practical kitchen providing an invaluable space for appliances, additional food storage and other kitchen necessities. Sculleries are crucial for keeping the main kitchen clutter-free without having to make the sacrifice of cutting down on favourite appliances.

The simple white of this kitchen’s benchtops and cabinets all tie in perfectly to create a clean and crisp environment, a fresh new take on a classic timeless kitchen.
