Vauxhall Warehouse Penthouse



Working closely with Foster Lomas Architects we have had the pleasure of working on this amazing space. Transforming the top level of a  Warehouse into a contemporary home.  Andrea Felice were responsible for many items of the furniture, but the highlight of this project was the Kitchen.

The kitchen cabinet doors and panels have been constructed from ribbed Oak that we applied a Shou Sugi Ban finish to, each piece of oak was individually burned and oiled to ensure a regular patina across the entire kitchen.




The kitchen features a custom made 3.6m x 1.5m aluminium panel with a bespoke water jet relief which has been aged with a dark patina.  The panel raises using a  counterweights to reveal the main galley of the kitchen.

The 5.5m polygonal Island and main galley have been clad in Nero Assoluto Granite and the Island has a custom made Nero Assoluto sink.

All drawers automatically open by touch via electric actuators and sensors.  Even the dishwasher opens with two knocks.
