Whole-of-home joinery fitout in Epping — handleless kitchen, butler’s pantry, kitchenette, study, wardrobe, laundry and bathroom all finished in Laminex Sublime Teak and Absolute Oak.
This Epping fitout was scoped as a whole-of-home joinery package from the start. Every room — kitchen, kitchenette, butler’s pantry, study, wardrobe, laundry and bathroom — was designed and built in the same material direction so the new-build shell felt resolved and warm from day one rather than assembled piece by piece.
Materials, finishes and key details
Laminex Sublime Teak and Absolute Oak throughout — consistent finish across every room
Handleless kitchen with integrated fingerpull profile on all doors and drawers
Taj Mahal stone benchtops across the kitchen and island
Study nook with 60mm thick floating shelves and 60mm thick benchtop — substantial, not box-store
Wardrobe, laundry and bathroom joinery all matched to the same timber tone and finish as the kitchen
Soft warm timber used to give the new build a layered, lived-in character from the first day
How each room or storage zone was resolved.
Kitchen
Handleless kitchen with fingerpull profile, Laminex Sublime Teak cabinetry, Taj Mahal stone benchtop and integrated appliances. Designed as the centrepiece of the open-plan zone.
Butler’s pantry
The butler’s pantry runs off the main kitchen with adjustable open shelving, a stone splashback nook and dedicated bar storage — keeps the main kitchen clear and gives everything a proper home.
Kitchenette
A secondary kitchenette with full-height Sublime Teak cabinetry, integrated oven and sink — separated from the entry by a fluted folding door and finished to the same standard as the main kitchen.
Study nook
60mm thick floating shelves and a 60mm thick benchtop — a proper built-in work zone that sits within the living space without taking over a room.
Wardrobe
Full-height built-in wardrobe with the same handleless Sublime Teak profile as the kitchen — fitted internally with hanging rail, shelves and drawers.
Laundry
Laundry cabinetry in Sublime Teak with Taj Mahal stone benchtop and integrated appliances — the same finish as the kitchen, not an afterthought.
Bathroom vanity
Reeded Sublime Teak floating vanity with vessel sink, brass tapware and backlit mirror. The material direction from the kitchen carried through at the same level of quality.
