A popular theme Michael Kitchener has seen emerging out of Europe is the prevalence of divergent yet complementary tones. One particular example is the incidence of timber against stark white surfaces to produce a striking yet warm effect.
The duo tone theme has seen kitchen designers explore contrasting techniques like combining horizontal and vertical grains to elongate a kitchen and create the illusion of height.
Progressive designers, including members of the Kitcheners®' team, are also taking advantage of the technological advances made in materials and turning to man made surfaces like vinyls, laminates and man made timber veneers.
