Kitchen | Townhouse, Rotterdam
Often described as the heart of the home, the kitchen is one of the hardest-working spaces in any project — balancing functionality, ergonomics and everyday living.
Designed around a simple monochrome palette, the original brief for this home was ‘Monochrome Home’. Over time, both the house and the people living in it evolved, bringing warmth, colour and collected pieces into the space.
At the centre of the ground floor sits a black Boffi kitchen island, paired with a granite worktop and an integrated quartzite sink — a contemporary interpretation of the traditional Butler’s sink. Together, these elements create a strong architectural anchor, while steel-framed glazing, vintage finds and collected objects soften the space and add character.
Designed around movement and use, every element was considered to support daily life, from cooking and entertaining to the quieter moments in between.
A kitchen should earn its place through use. This one certainly has.
