ELEVATING THE EVERYDAY – BALWYN HOUSE

Tasked with increasing the footprint of this 1930s house in Melbourne’s leafy suburb of Balwyn and injecting natural light into its previously dark spaces, Robson Rak has created a dynamic home that elevates the everyday while catering to the needs of a young, bustling family of seven.

 

As the home of a family of seven big on entertaining, cooking and gathering, it was imperative that the open-plan kitchen and living area considered practicality, beauty and comfort in equal measure. “When we start designing a kitchen, it’s important to consider the layout and the functional aspects, but there’s also aesthetics and materiality,” Kathryn explains. Achieving both a high degree of performance and a streamlined aesthetic was essential, therefore, Fisher & Paykel appliances were selected for their seamless integration, black finish and functionality. “As designers, we want a fully functional kitchen, but we want to see as little equipment as possible. For this reason, we’ve been using Fisher & Paykel for years; they don’t try to make a feature out of anything unnecessarily,” the architects say.
