Restrained yet richly layered, the kitchen at Chisel House was conceived as a flexibility in mind. ⁠

Set within the open-plan extension, the space achieves a seamless balance between connection and separation, allowing the kitchen and living areas to flow effortlessly while maintaining their own distinct identities.⁠

In contrast to the dynamic extension at Chisel House, the bathrooms adopt a quieter language; a restrained, calming atmosphere defined by warm stone and richly textured timber. The carefully composed materiality come together to create an immersive space designed for pause and retreat.⁠
