There’s no doubt that Houtwerff knew what they were doing when designing this kitchen to suit the style of a 1930’s house.
The nostalgia factor is enhanced through the use of a darker wood, but the combination with mild whites and organic curves transforms the interior into a beautiful contemporary ensemble.
The natural wood characteristics are highlighted by the rich brown wood and bring an unparalleled depth to the room. Each grain and pattern tells a different story and brings a distinctive touch to this unique kitchen.
Houtwerff’s carpenters were impressed by Shinnoki’s ease-of-use: “the main advantage of Shinnoki is how quickly you can implement it.
The process from panel to kitchen is so straightforward because of its ready-made, beautiful finish.
The material is strong and scratch resistant – with the added bonus that we can accurately predict the final look of the kitchen due to the reliable design.”


But there’s more to this kitchen than just good looks: cosiness and comfort are ubiquitous.
The kitchen is often regarded as the heart of the home – a place of love where preparing meals, lively conversations, and making core memories happen.
It’s a favourite place for many among us – and this kitchen is sure to join the ranks.
